Facebook Login on Laravel 7
Laravel socialite is the easiest way to login to our website. Now I show you how to implement it on Facebook login by using the socialite package.
Step 1:
First, you should create your own Facebook App.
Click Create App.
Follow the below pictures of creating an app and take the required credentials
Step 2:
Download Socialite
Run this command on CMD.
composer require laravel/socialite
Step 3:
Now you should configure the app.php file. Open config/app.php file and put
Laravel\Socialite\SocialiteServiceProvider::class,
this under providers and put
'Socialite' => Laravel\Socialite\Facades\Socialite::class,
this under aliases.
Step 4:
Now you should configure the config/services.php file.
'facebook' => [ 'client_id' => '3459825004069606', 'client_secret' => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', 'redirect' => 'https://test.com/callback/facebook', ],
Step 5:
Now add these two fields to your user’s table
provider, provider_id
as a string.
Step 6:
Now you should add the following routes in routes/web.php file.
Route::get('/auth/redirect/{provider}', 'SocialiteController@redirect');
Route::get('/callback/{provider}', 'SocialiteController@callback');
Step 7:
Create a controller by using CMD
php artisan make:controller SocialiteController
Step 8:
Put it in your Facebook href link. Now open the link and ready to log in.
{{ url('/auth/redirect/facebook') }}
