Dear Team,

great work for gitea!

Is there any chance that besides the many other OAuth2-Providers, also Nextcloud could be used/implemented?

I already tried to use the GitLab-OAuth2-Template, but that fails because of the following:

This is the first not-working step when getting the user object, as the token is sent as URL-Parameter instead of Bearer-Token in Header:

In Comparison how it looks like for Rocket.Chat as OAuth client, where it works:

This is the JSON String that the user-endpoint of nextcloud sends back if authenticated successfuly (i am not sure if the escapes in storageLocation are because of extracting this from wireshark..):

{"ocs":{"meta":{"status":"ok","statuscode":200,"message":"OK"},"data":{"storageLocation":"\/var\/www\/html\/data\/dummy","id":"dummy","lastLogin":1583084839000,"backend":"LDAP","subadmin":["self-registered"],"quota":{"free":2832472,"used":12896168,"total":15728640,"relative":81.99,"quota":15728640},"email":"dummy@gmail.com","phone":"","address":"","website":"","twitter":"","groups":["paid-users"],"language":"en","locale":"","backendCapabilities":{"setDisplayName":false,"setPassword":true},"display-name":"dummy"}}}
