README

Social-Auth is a Laravel package which wraps around a oauth library and laravel with the goal to let you simply set the provider credentials and be done.

It currently uses hybrid_auth in the background. With the coming of the new SocialLite package for laravel i will probably switch out hybrid_auth for it.

Install

Installation

Add the following lines to your composer.json:

"require": {
    "ipunkt/social-auth": "dev-master"
}

Configuration

To configure 3 steps are necessary.
If you wish for user deletes to trigger deletion of their mappings to provider accounts make sure to set the 'user table' variable in the config before migrating

Add the service provider

Add

'Ipunkt\SocialAuth\SocialAuthServiceProvider'

to your app.php

Publish and set your config

Publish

php artisan config:publish ipunkt/social-auth

then set your provider credentials in

app/config/packages/ipunkt/social-auth/config.php

Migrate

Migrate the necessary database tables.

php artisan migrate --package="ipunkt/social-auth"

Use

Error and Message Handling

This package tries not to bring any views of its own, thus error handling is done through the session. On success, 'message' will be set directly in the Session. e.g. {{ Session::get('message') }} On error, 'message' will be set in errors. e.g. {{ $errors->first('message') }}

Authenticating with SocialAuth

Login

Letting your users log in through a SocialAuth provider is as simple as directing them to the social.login route with the name of the provider as parameter.

{{ link_to_route('social.login', 'log in through Facebook',  'Facebook' }}

Attaching a Provider

Registering

Allowing your users to register using a provider account requires a little more work.

  • First, make sure the 'register route' variable is set correctly in your config file.
  • Provide the user a link to the social.register route, with the provider name as its parameter. e.g. {{ link_to_route('social.register', 'register through Facebook', ['Facebook']) }}
  • If the user successfully logs into the provider they will be redirected back to your registration process. There you can access their account data through SocialAuth::getRegistration()
  • If the registration process finishes successfuly, call SocialAuth::getRegistration()->success($newlyCreatedUser) to create the connection between the local and provider account.

Links to all enabled Providers

Most of the time you will want to provide links to all enabled providers instead of a certain one.
To do this, use SocialAuth::getProviders() to grab all enabled providers and use *Link($innerHtml) to have it build a link for you.

  • ProviderInterface::loginLink($innerHtml)
  • ProviderInterface::attachLink($innerHtml)
  • ProviderInterface::registerLink($innerHtml)

Example:

@foreach(SocialAuth::getProviders() as $provider)
    if(Auth::check()) {
        // A link which lets you attach a user from this provider to your local account
        {{ $provider->attachLink($provider->getName()) }}
    } else {
        // A link which lets you login through this provider
        {{ $provider->loginLink($provider->getName()) }}
    
        // A link which lets a user request a running registration to use an account on this provider to login
        {{ $provider->registerLink($provider->getName()) }}
    }
@endforeach

Profile

The Profile is currently dependant on Hybrid_Auth_Profile as the underlying package

ProfileInterface

There are 3 Ways to access Profiles:

  • Through the providers
    SocialAuth::getProviders()['Facebook']->getProfile()
    This will give you the currently logged in Users Profile on the given Provider. If the User is not currently logged in through this Provider then the values stored in the Database will be returned.
  • Through SocialAuth::getProfile This will give you the Profile of the currently logged in User with the special 'UserProfile' Provider. It contains the same data as the first Provider Profile to be registered or attached to this user.
  • Through the UserModel implementing HasProfileInterface implementing HasProfileInterface will allow you to manage profiles not just for the active user but all users in your database. A default implementation using Eloquent is available through the EloquentHasProfile trait

Return Url

Your provider will ask you to set a return url where user logging into your application get sent. This is static: http://path.to/your/laravel/installation/social/auth

Advanced Use

Use your own ORM

To switch out Eloquent for the ORM of your choice do the following

Create a model which implements the SocialLoginInterface Create a repository which implements the SocialLoginrepository interface

bind this repository to 'Ipunkt\SocialAuth\SocialLoginInterface' in the Laravel IoC

Create a repository which implements the UserRepository interface

bind this repository to 'Ipunkt\SocialAuth\Repositories\UserRepository' in the Laravel IoC
