Patreon
Conventions
- `{{BASE_URL}}`: The website's base URL without a trailing slash, such as `https://leicmin.mfgames.com`
For Creators
To link Patreon tiers to Leicmin groups, you need to register Leicmin as a client. This has to be done for each Patreon account.
- Log into Patreon as a Creator.
- Go to https://www.patreon.com/portal/registration/register-clients.
- Click “Create Client”.
- Fill in the form:
- App Name: You should probably put something with “Leicmin” or the name of your website, this is mostly a label for viewing accounts and figuring out the purpose of the client.
- Description: Decribe the purpose of the account. Again, this is mostly for your purposes.
- App Category: Probably “Member Benefits” or “Content Management”.
- Redirect URIs: A space-separate list of links (though space separation doesn't seem to work). Put in `{{BASE_URL}}` plus `/account/patreon` such as `https://leicmin.example.org/account/patreon`.
- Client API Version: 2
- Click “Create”
- The modal will close and the “App Name” you selected will be in the list below, click on down arrow. There will be a number of fields that you need to copy and put into Lecimin:
- Client Secret
- Creator's Access Token
- Creator's Refresh Token
Once everything is copied over, these are the commands to run:
