+ [2015-10-05T23:00:06Z] wolfman2000 Impaloo: if I'm understanding this correctly, I can do a POST call to github on my before_install call to set to pending, and then hook it up with an after_build or after_build_fail call?
+ [2015-10-05T23:19:28Z] Impaloo wolfman2000: sure
+ [2015-10-05T23:19:41Z] Impaloo but don't reinvent the wheel

So for example in an angularjs app where the app only wishes to authenticate the user, is it the clientside angularjs that should generate the nonce word, or should a call to a backend api be made, and stored
