Allow users to login with Facebook

[tjvantoll]

I need to find a good plugin for allowing users to login with Facebook.

I started down the road of Facebook login integration for ThisOrThat using this: https://github.com/AntonioCuevaUrraco/nativescript-facebook-login. I was able to login but experienced crashes, I think Antonio said it was fixed but I haven't tested. I left the code commented out here:

https://github.com/jlooper/ThisOrThat-app/blob/master/app/app.js

and here:

https://github.com/jlooper/ThisOrThat-app/blob/master/app/views/login/login.xml
https://github.com/jlooper/ThisOrThat-app/blob/master/app/views/login/login.js

It does allow login and posts the credentials to Everlive, but the crashing behavior stopped me from moving forward. I think it's worth revisiting this strategy but I think we need a vetted plugin from the N team for social logins, it should be in our plugins marketplace, it's really important (ping @valentinstoychev)

Thanks Jen!

Agreed. For an official sample I wouldn’t want to include anything that isn’t well vetted. The only 2 plugins Groceries uses today are both in our plugins marketplace.

Since we’re trying to keep this sample simple I’m going to close this for now.
