Hybridauth for yii

Demo and info on the official hybridauth page above

In short, hybridauth is a library that makes working with auth api’s from diffrent providers alot easier. With the addon it currently has support for 29 providers,facebook,twitter,google,tumblr,myspace etc aswell as any openid server.

[size="5"]Instructions:[/size]

Put hybridauth folder in your root, and if you want to use the same (huge) icons I used put the login_icons dir in your root/images.

Put yiiauth folder in protected/modules and add ‘yiiauth’ in your protected/config/main.php’s ‘modules’ array.

into import array, add ‘application.modules.yiiauth.components.*’,

You have to registrate your app on facebook/twitter etc to recieve a key and a secret.

Set these keys in YiiAuthModule.php (there is a config array, how to configure more options can be found on the hybridauth page I linked at thop.

Also dont forget to set your path to hybridauth in that config.

For openID no special key/secret is needed.

To try out on your site there is a loginwidget that can be used simply like this:
		<?php $this->widget('LoginWidget');?>
You can also just domain.com/yiiauth/ to test.

What you will se when you have authenticated is a var_dump of the data returned from the provider.

With this data u can check if there is a user in your database assigned to that provider and with that unique id.

else you should create a new user on your page, saving the provider and unique id for next login.

I haven’t added a full user system to this module because I believe most wants to solve this their own way.

Download (newest)

I there an alternative to put it in vendors folder in yii application instead of the root.

Edit* Yes, just use the new path when you use requiere_once()

(like in authenticatewith action in defaultcontroller…)

But I’m working on fixing some stuff to make these things easier

Does this extension provide a way to post updates to these provider networks? E.g. can it be used to allow Facebook status updates or tweets?

Drini · June 12, 2012, 12:06pm

Yes,its not hard at all. I’ve done a method for it that will be included in next release…

But now already you can test with $adapter->setUserStatus( ‘foo’ );

in default controller,after successful auth.

Those who has support for status updates is:




$providers = array('facebook', 'twitter', 'identica', 'linkedin', 'qq', 'sina', 'murmur', 'pixnet','plurk');

Are you missing the providers array in module file in the new update or where did you move it.

Drini · June 13, 2012, 1:37pm

I put a check for that in the updateStatus method in Yiiauth component (inside the module).

So if you run $this->updateStatus($provider,$status); it will check if $provider is in that array you showed, if it is it will set the user status to $status. So you do not have to worry about that.

The array for providers you would like to use, is set in the config, how to configure it is shown on the hybridauth info page. i strongly recommend to read that:)

Errors…

The login works like a charm so I think there should be no problem with the line
return Yii::app()->controller->module->config;
But when i use the function updateStatus… it keep giving me Trying to get property of non-object-line.

I guess something wrong with the auth function, I checked it and I believe it SHOULD be fine…

Any ideas?

Thanks for your amazing ext!!!

The second line is error because of the first error, and I dont know why that line would give you an error if the login works, that same Yii::app()->controller->module->config is ran on login to… hmm

jzhong5 · June 18, 2012, 5:08pm

Yes…that’s why i think the problem shouldn’t be there…

So weird…

Is that works on you?

Drini · June 18, 2012, 5:12pm

Hm, I will test it. I misread your first post, didnt see what method you were using.

I dont have time for it right now, but I will probably do it tomorrow:p

jzhong5 · June 18, 2012, 5:28pm

Thanks so much! That’s a great great module!

Drini · June 19, 2012, 12:40pm

Ah, It didnt work for me either first, I found I had typo.

At approximately line 145




public function updateStatus($provider,$status){

	$this->newAuth();

//Change to

public function updateStatus($provider,$status){

$hybridauth = $this->newAuth();

Then it should work,atleast did so for me:)

I found that typo and had corrected it yesterday…So this is not the problem…

Still give me "Trying to get property of non-object"…

Don’t know why the same method is just not working here…!!!

-.-

austinitor · June 21, 2012, 3:45am

I think I’ve followed every instruction verbatim, but I’m afraid I’m getting this:

Error 404

The system is unable to find the requested action "authenticatewith?openid=http:".

ifass · June 21, 2012, 9:07am

This looks really good!

Soon I will try this out and report back. Please keep up the good work

Ne0nx3r0 · June 21, 2012, 4:39pm

I can’t seem to get this to work; after following the instructions I get:




Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /protected/modules/yiiauth/components/Yiiauth.php on line 31

Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

edit Ignore, it’s a fresh install and I haven’t setup the User class yet.

PrplHaz4 · June 22, 2012, 5:42am

A few notes from me playing with this for a bit…

Be sure to extend your base controller as stated in the instructions…




class Controller extends yiiauth

and

class DefaultController extends Controller //yiiauth default controller

social extends Model (doesn’t exist in my case) - for most I believe this will be CActiveRecord
UrlFormat is assumed to be path
path to images assumes app is in webroot…it should prob be prefixed with Yii::app()->basePath or something to be more universal

now trying to figure out why I’m getting this error


The provider 'Facebook' is not enabled.

when using Twitter as the provider

You have many good points, I’m not relly good at module making. The social extending model is as you say for most CActiveRecord, I have created a Model class in app/components, so that is not really needed for this Yiiauth module.

Can you tell me where u get this error? it is hopefully solved with just an if statement.

Else, I wouldnt mind if others updated errors they find because I have almost no time at all to work on this currently

jzhong5 · June 22, 2012, 9:49am

Has anyone tried to use the "update status" function…?

Still not works for me…

The login works like a charm. You need to fixed some typos though.
