React Social Login · NPM version · Standard - JavaScript Style Guide · Dependencies · License: MIT

React Social Login is an HOC which provides social login through multiple providers.

Currently supports Amazon, Facebook, GitHub, Google, Instagram and LinkedIn as providers (more to come!)

Motivation

  • Having a component that doesn't dictates the HTML
  • All-in-One login component for different social providers
  • Takes care of warnings from provider's SDKs when multiple instances are placed
  • Kind of re-birth of my previous .Net driven similar open source - SocialAuth.NET

Online demo

See https://deepakaggarwal7.github.io/react-social-login.

Demo

Edit appId props with your own ones in demo/index.js file and build demo:

$ npm start

You can then view the demo at https://localhost:8080.

For GitHub provider, see GitHub specifics first.

Install

$ npm install --save react-social-login

Usage

Create the component of your choice and transform it into a SocialLogin component.

SocialButton.js

import React from 'react'
import SocialLogin from 'react-social-login'

const Button = ({ children, triggerLogin, ...props }) => (
  <button onClick={triggerLogin} {...props}>
    { children }
  </button>
)

export default SocialLogin(Button)

Then, use it like a normal component.

index.js

import React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'

import SocialButton from './SocialButton'

const handleSocialLogin = (user) => {
  console.log(user)
}

const handleSocialLoginFailure = (err) => {
  console.error(err)
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <SocialButton
      provider='facebook'
      appId='YOUR_APP_ID'
      onLoginSuccess={handleSocialLogin}
      onLoginFailure={handleSocialLoginFailure}
    >
      Login with Facebook
    </SocialButton>
  </div>,
  document.getElementById('app')
)

Reference

Raw component props (before transform):

Prop Default Type / Values Description
appId string Your app identifier (see find my appId)
autoCleanUri false boolean Enable auto URI cleaning with OAuth callbacks
autoLogin false boolean Enable auto login on componentDidMount
field - array, string An array or string of field to be return on login. (facebook only) (see Facebook specifics)
gatekeeper string Gatekeeper URL to use for GitHub OAuth support (see GitHub specifics)
getInstance function Return node ref like ref function would normally do (react known issue)
onLoginFailure function Callback on login fail
onLoginSuccess function Callback on login success
onLogoutFailure function Callback on logout fail (google only)
onLogoutSuccess function Callback on logout success
provider amazon, facebook, github, google, instagram, linkedin Social provider to use
redirect - string URL to redirect after login (available for github and instagram only)
scope - array, string An array or string of scopes to be granted on login.
version - string Specify SDK version (available for facebook only).
any other prop Any other prop will be forwarded to your component

Note about redirect: if you are redirecting on root (eg: https://localhost:8080), you have to omit the trailing slash.

Transformed component props:

Prop Type Description
triggerLogin function Function to trigger login process, usually attached to an event listener
triggerLogout function Function to trigger logout process, usually attached to a container handling login state
all your props All props from your original component, minus SocialLogin specific props

Logout

To implement logout, we need a container handling login state and triggering logout function from a ref to SocialLogin component.

As it is implemented in the demo, we have two components working together to trigger logout:

Here is how they work together:

  1. Demo is displaying UserCard only if user is logged
  2. UserCard gets forwarded a logout function
  3. UserCard calls forwarded logout prop on click on the logout button
  4. logout function triggers triggerLogout prop from a ref to SocialLogin component

Old component support

We decided to keep the old behavior as a fallback, it only supports facebook, google and linkedin providers and is available as a named export:

import React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'
import { OldSocialLogin as SocialLogin } from 'react-social-login'

const handleSocialLogin = (user, err) => {
  console.log(user)
  console.log(err)
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <SocialLogin
      provider='facebook'
      appId='YOUR_APP_ID'
      callback={handleSocialLogin}
    >
      <button>Login with Google</button>
    </SocialLogin>
  </div>,
  document.getElementById('app')
)

Build

Though not mandatory, it is recommended to use latest npm5 to match lockfile versions.

$ npm install
$ npm run build

GitHub specifics

GitHub provider is implemented in two different modes:

GitHub Personal Tokens mode

Actually, this one is more a hacky way to get user profile than a way to really connect your app like OAuth does.

Plus, it requires from users to create their personal token from their GitHub account, which is not a good experience for them.

This mode is the default if you do not provide gatekeeper prop and will try to use the appId prop to get user data. Anyway, we strongly advise you to use the GitHub OAuth authentication flow.

GitHub OAuth

If you provide a gatekeeper prop, this mode will be active and will use a server of your own to fetch GitHub OAuth access token. This is a know issue of GitHub.

The simplest way to setup this mode is to use the Gatekeeper project. Just follow setup instructions then tell RSL to use it:

<SocialLogin
  provider='github'
  gatekeeper='http://localhost:9999'
  appId='YOUR_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID'
  redirect='http://localhost:8080'
>
  Login with GitHub OAuth
</SocialLogin>

You can also implement it your own way but you must use the same routing than Gatekeeper (/authenticate/:code) and return a JSON response containing a token or error property (it will also throw if it doesn't find token).

Special instructions to run demo

RSL demo is served over https with webpack-dev-server. This is a requirement of Amazon Login SDK. Gatekeeper is served over insecure http so you will have to serve the demo through http also to work with GitHub (but it will break Amazon):

$ npm run start:insecure
