The plugin allows for easy authorization via facebook using the auth component of CakePHP. The plugin includes an AuthComponent authentication class as well as a facebook wrapper component. The facebook token is transmitted to the application via the authorization header.

Installation

The recommended way to install composer packages is:

Configuration

Bootstrap

The plugin reads app details via the config/boostrap.php file in your application. Add the following lines to your bootstrap and fill in the details from your facebook app. The fields specify the information you are requesting from the graph. When generating the token frontend the same fields should be requested.

To run the tests agains you're own facebook account, you will have to enter the account identifier in your bootstrap too:

You can also go declare environment variables using the .env file in the /tests/config. Alternatively, you declare them globally in you local environemnt. I have provided a template in /tests/config.

Association:

In order for the authentication to work, an association should be added to the table representing a user. It defaults to "Users".

Component config:

The component should be added to the authentication config of your AppController.

The plugin works out of the box. Below is shown the available fields with their defaults:

Load facebook component:

The facebook component can be loaded in controllers via the following line. This is useful when adding a new user, or linking an already existing user account with a social profile.

Migrate

The database schema of SocialData can be imported via the migration file.

Testing

To execute tests successfully make sure to be authenticated with the app that you wish to test against. Furthermore you should modify tests/bootstrap.php, with the credentials of your app and your own account.
