Is it possible to implement OAuth(Open Authorization) 2.0 or 1.0 in HTTP Module.

Why i m choosing this because, each and every request will first reaches the HTTP Module, so from that request i have to authenticate

Is it possible ?

If YES means , please like a related link for that

Yes, this is possible. In fact mod_auth_openidc does exactly that for Apache (and for OpenId Connect, which is a protocol built on OAuth2).
