Prerequisites
- Laravel project set up
- Composer installed
- Google Developer Account
Step 1: Set up Google OAuth Credentials
- Go to the Google Developer Console
- Create a new project or select an existing one
- Enable the Google+ API
- Go to Credentials -> Create Credentials -> OAuth Client ID
- Select Web Application, add your app's URL and callback URL (e.g., http://your-app-url/login/google/callback)
- Note down your Client ID and Client Secret
Step 2: Install Laravel Socialite
Install Laravel Socialite via Composer:
composer require laravel/socialite
Step 3: Configure Socialite
Add the following to your config/services.php file:
'google' => [
'client_id' => env('GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID'),
'client_secret' => env('GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET'),
'redirect' => env('GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI'),
],
Then, add these to your .env file:
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=your_google_client_id
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=your_google_client_secret
GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI=http://your-app-url/login/google/callback
Step 4: Set up Routes
Add these routes to your routes/web.php:
use App\Http\Controllers\Auth\GoogleController;
Route::get('login/google', [GoogleController::class, 'redirectToGoogle'])->name('login.google');
Route::get('login/google/callback', [GoogleController::class, 'handleGoogleCallback']);
Step 5: Create GoogleController
Create a new controller:
php artisan make:controller Auth/GoogleController
Implement the controller:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Laravel\Socialite\Facades\Socialite;
class GoogleController extends Controller
{
public function redirectToGoogle()
{
return Socialite::driver('google')->redirect();
}
public function handleGoogleCallback()
{
try {
$user = Socialite::driver('google')->user();
$finduser = User::where('google_id', $user->id)->first();
if ($finduser) {
Auth::login($finduser);
return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
} else {
$newUser = User::create([
'name' => $user->name,
'email' => $user->email,
'google_id'=> $user->id,
'password' => encrypt('123456dummy')
]);
Auth::login($newUser);
return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
}
} catch (\Exception $e) {
dd($e->getMessage());
}
}
}
Step 6: Update User Model
Add google_idto the fillable array in your User model:
protected $fillable = [
'name',
'email',
'password',
'google_id',
];
Step 7: Add Google ID to Users Table
Create a new migration:
php artisan make:migration add_google_id_to_users_table
In the new migration file:
public function up()
{
Schema::table('users', function ($table) {
$table->string('google_id')->nullable();
});
}
public function down()
{
Schema::table('users', function ($table) {
$table->dropColumn('google_id');
});
}
Run the migration:
php artisan migrate
Step 8: Add Login Button
In your login view, add a "Login with Google" button:
<a href="{{ route('login.google') }}" class="btn btn-danger">
Login with Google
</a>
