Building block for social authentication in your Solidus store.

SolidusSocial

Social login support for Solidus. Solidus Social handles authorization, account creation and association through third-party services. Currently Twitter, Facebook, Github, Google OAuth2, and Amazon are available out of the box.

Installation

Add solidus_social to your Gemfile:

gem 'solidus_social'

Bundle your dependencies and run the installation generator:

bundle
bundle exec rails g solidus_social:install
bundle exec rails db:migrate

This will install a new initializer config/initializers/solidus_social.rb into your project that allows you to setup the services you want configured for your app.

Optional: By default the login path will be '/users/auth/:provider'. If you want something else, configure it in config/initializers/solidus_social.rb.

Using OAuth Sources

Login as an admin user and navigate to Configuration > Social Authentication Methods

Click "New Authentication Method" and choose one of your configured providers.

You MUST restart your application after configuring or updating an authentication method.

Registering Your Application

Facebook, Twitter, Github, Google OAuth2, and Amazon are supported out of the box but, you will need to register your application with each of the sites you want to use.

When setting up development applications, keep in mind that most services do not support localhost for your URL/domain. You will need to us a regular domain (i.e. domain.tld, hostname.local) or an IP addresses (127.0.0.1). Make sure you specifity the right IP address.

Other OAuth Providers

Other OAuth providers are supported, given that there is an OmniAuth strategy for them. (If there isn't, you can write one.)

LinkedIn Example

1. Add gem "omniauth-linkedin" to your Gemfile and run bundle install.

2. In config/initializers/solidus_social.rb add and initialize a new provider for SolidusSocial:

     config.providers = {
       # The configuration key has to match your omniauth strategy.
       linkedin: {
         api_key: ENV['LINKEDIN_API_KEY'],
         api_secret: ENV['LINKEDIN_API_SECRET'],
       },
       # More providers here

3. Activate your provider as usual.

4. Do one of the following:

   • Override the spree/users/social view to render OAuth links to display your LinkedIn link.
   • Include in your CSS a definition for .icon-spree-linkedin-circled and an embedded icon font for LinkedIn from Fontello (the way existing icons for Facebook, Twitter, etc are implemented). You can also override CSS classes for other providers, .icon-spree-<provider>-circled, to use different font icons or classic background images, without having to override views.

Testing

First bundle your dependencies, then run rake. rake will default to building the dummy app if it does not exist, then it will run specs, and Rubocop static code analysis. The dummy app can be regenerated by using rake test_app.

bundle
bin/rake

When testing your application's integration with this extension you may use its factories. Simply add this require statement to your spec_helper:

require 'solidus_social/factories'

Releasing

Your new extension version can be released using gem-release like this:

bundle exec gem bump -v VERSION --tag --push --remote upstream && gem release
