How to use

Install this plugin for your CakePHP app.
Assuming APP is the directory where your CakePHP app resides, it's usually app/ from the base of CakePHP.
```
cd APP/Plugin
git clone git://github.com/uzyn/cakephp-opauth.git Opauth
```
Download Opauth library as a submodule.
```
git submodule init
git submodule update
```
Add this line to the bottom of your app's Config/bootstrap.php:
```
<?php
CakePlugin::load('Opauth', array('routes' => true, 'bootstrap' => true));
```
Overwrite any Opauth configurations you want after the above line.

Load strategies onto Strategy/ directory.

Append configuration for strategies at your app's Config/bootstrap.php as follows:

<?php
CakePlugin::load('Opauth', array('routes' => true, 'bootstrap' => true));

// Using Facebook strategy as an example
Configure::write('Opauth.Strategy.Facebook', array(
    'app_id' => 'YOUR FACEBOOK APP ID',
    'app_secret' => 'YOUR FACEBOOK APP SECRET'
));

Go to http://path_to_your_cake_app/auth/facebook to authenticate with Facebook, and similarly for other strategies that you have loaded.
After validation, user will be redirected to Router::url('/opauth-complete') with validated auth response data retrievable available at $this->data.

To route a controller to handle the response, at your app's Config/routes.php, add a connector, for example:
```
<?php
Router::connect(
    '/opauth-complete/*', 
    array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'opauth_complete')
);
```
You can then work with the authentication data at, say APP/Controller/UsersController.php as follows:
```
<?php // APP/Controller/UsersController.php:
class UsersController extends AppController {
    public function opauth_complete() {
        debug($this->data);
    }
}
```
Note that this CakePHP Opauth plugin already does auth response validation for you with its results available as a boolean value at $this->data['validated'].
(optional) The submoduled Opauth core library may not be of the latest build, to update to the latest:
```
git submodule foreach git pull origin master
```

Note:

If your CakePHP app does not reside at DocumentRoot (eg. http://localhost), but at a directory below DocumentRoot (eg. http://localhost/your-cake-app),
add this line to your app's APP/Config/bootstrap.php, replacing your-cake-app with your actual path :

<?php // APP/Config/bootstrap.php
Configure::write('Opauth.path', '/your-cake-app/auth/');
