Google OAuth in Java Servlet [localhost] callback

Question

I created a Java Servlet Application which has Google OAuth Sign in using Scribe. The callback URL at Developers Console is http://localhost:8080/oauth2callback Now, if somebody accesses my application on LAN using my Local IP, they couldn't sign in since the callback was defined as localhost. Is there any workaround [Except deploying the app on the web]?

Answer 1

No. unless the user is on your localhost, it will not work without deploying on a publically available hostname/ip address.
