    I ended up using https://github.com/nulab/scala-oauth2-provider/ although I cannot possibly comment on its pros or cons compared to other libraries. In the simplest scenario you may even manage without any 3rd party components, simply resort to action composition where your custom action will handle all interaction with user database.
