Unable to use Laravel / Socialite with Lumen - php

Question

I try to use the package Laravel\Socialite in my system in Lumen (5.1)
I added this in the config\services.php file :
<?php
//Socialite
'facebook' => [
'client_id' => '##################',
'client_secret' => '##################',
'redirect' => 'http://local.dev/admin/facebook/callback',
],
In bootstrap\app.php file :
class_alias(Laravel\Socialite\Facades\Socialite::class, 'Socialite');
$app->register(Laravel\Socialite\SocialiteServiceProvider::class);
Then I created a controller for the facebook authentication :
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Facebook;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Laravel\Socialite\Contracts\Factory as Socialite;
class FacebookController extends Controller
{
public function redirectToProviderAdmin()
{
return Socialite::driver('facebook')->scopes(['manage_pages', 'publish_actions'])->redirect();
}
public function handleProviderCallbackAdmin()
{
$user = Socialite::driver('facebook')->user();
}
}
And in the routes.php :
$app->get('/admin/facebook/login', 'App\Http\Controllers\Facebook\FacebookController#redirectToProviderAdmin');
$app->get('/admin/facebook/callback', 'App\Http\Controllers\Facebook\FacebookController#handleProviderCallbackAdmin');
I just followed the documentation, changing according to my needs. When I go to page http://local.dev/admin/facebook/login, I get the following error :
Non-static method Laravel\Socialite\Contracts\Factory::driver() cannot be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context
Indeed, according to the code, driver function must be instanciate.
EDIT : And if I try to instanciate this class, I get the following error :
Cannot instantiate interface Laravel\Socialite\Contracts\Factory
How do you make this module to work?

Answer 1

here's how that works in my case
in services.php file
'facebook' => [
'client_id' => '***************',
'client_secret' => '***************',
'redirect' => ""
],
i left redirect empty cause my site is multilingual (so, it fills in a bit later with sessions). if you use only one language, put there your callback absolute path. for example
"http://example.com:8000/my-callback/";
also check your config/app.php. in providers array
Laravel\Socialite\SocialiteServiceProvider::class,
in aliases array
'Socialite' => Laravel\Socialite\Facades\Socialite::class,
my routes look like this
Route::get('facebook', 'Auth\AuthController#redirectToProvider');
Route::get('callback', 'Auth\AuthController#handleProviderCallback');
here's auth controllers methods. put in top
use Socialite;
//იობანი როტ
public function redirectToProvider(Request $request)
{
return Socialite::with('facebook')->redirect();
}
public function handleProviderCallback(Request $request)
{
//here you hadle input user data
$user = Socialite::with('facebook')->user();
}
my facebook app
giga.com:8000 is my localhost (so its the same localhost:8000)
as you can see in Valid OAuth redirect URI, you should put there your callback. in my case i use three urls cause i have three languages. in your case it should be just
http://your-domain-name.com:8000/callback
if you work on localhost, you should name your domain in config/services.php
mine look like this
'domain' => "your-domain.com",
after everything run these commands
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan view:clear
composer dump-autoload
restart your server, clear your browser cookies. hope it helps
