Social-Login

Social-login is a utility built on top of PassportJS that makes it a lot faster to setup various social logins on your site, without having to deal with PassportJS' complicated and non-standardized API.

Social-login also pre-parse the data to return only the part you care about. It will also return the name of the unique property in the data ('id', 'ID', 'name', ...), so that you can identify the user's account easily.

You can literally setup a social login for 13 social sites in less than 10 minutes, without headache.

Support

You can install the following social logins out of the box:

  • facebook
  • twitter
  • instagram
  • linkedin
  • github
  • google
  • amazon
  • dropbox
  • foursquare
  • imgur
  • meetup
  • wordpress
  • tumblr

install

npm install social-login

setup

// Setup express
var express     	    = require('express');
var app                 = express();
// Setup express here...


// Setup social-login
var socialLoginClass    = require("social-login");

// Init
var socialLogin			= new socialLoginClass({
	app:	app,    // ExpressJS instance
	url:	'http://127.0.0.1:5000',  // Your root url
    onAuth:	function(req, type, uniqueProperty, accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
		
        // This is the centralized method that is called when the user is logged in using any of the supported social site.
        // Setup once and you're done.
        
        findOrCreate({
			profile:	profile,        // Profile is the user's profile, already filtered to return only the parts that matter (no HTTP response code and that kind of useless data)
			property:	uniqueProperty, // What property in the data is unique: id, ID, name, ...
			type:		type            // What type of login that is: facebook, foursquare, google, ...

Options

Do you need to receive the raw data returned by the Oauth login rather than the filtered one?

Simply pass returnRaw: true in the setup parameters:

var socialLogin    		= new socialLoginClass({
    returnRaw:  true,   // Set this to true (default: false)
	app:	    app, 
	url:	    'http://127.0.0.1:5000',
    onAuth:	    function(req, type, uniqueProperty, accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
		// 'profile' now contains the raw unfiltered data from the Oauth login.
	}
});
