Here i will give you example of laravel 8 login with facebook account here i have used laravel 8 jetstream authentication for laravel social login example.

I have added all details in this example with image to easy implimention, so, let's start login with facebook with socialite step by step.

 

Step 1 : Install Laravel 8

In this step we will install laravel 8 for this socialite login with facebook account.

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravel_8_facebook_login

 

Step 2 : Install JetStream

In this step, we will install jetstream, so run below command for install jetstream for laravel 8 jetstream login with facebook.

composer require laravel/jetstream

Now, we need to install livewire using below artisan command and also we need basic authentication like login and registration otherwise you can install using auth command.

php artisan jetstream:install livewire

Now, Install Node and run package.

npm install
npm run dev

 Now,we will create database using migration command.

php artisan migrate

 

 

Step 3 : Install Socialite

 Now,we will install Socialite Package which one provides API to connect with google account. So,run below command.

composer require laravel/socialite

 

Step 4 : Create Facebook App

 

 

 

Now, Goto Facebook Settings and add your callback /redirect URL: https://localhost:8000/callback ‘Valid OAuth Redirect URL’ Save it as below image.

 

 

Now, we required facebook client id and secret key, if you don't have any google app account then you need to create from below link. 

Create Facebook Account  after create account you can copy client id and secret key.

 

 

Step 5 : Changes in Config File

Now we will set app id, secret key and call back url in config file so open this file config/services.php and add id and secret key.

<?php
return [
    'facebook' => [
        'client_id' => 'your client ID',
        'client_secret' => 'your client secret',
        'redirect' => 'http://localhost:8000/callback',
    ],
];

 

Step 6 : Create Controller

Now create Controller LoginWithFacebookController, in this controller we have added redirect() function to redirect the user to Facebook and callback() function is used for handle user when callback from Facebook.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Exception;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Laravel\Socialite\Facades\Socialite;

class LoginWithFacebookController extends Controller
{
    public function redirectFacebook()
    {
        return Socialite::driver('facebook')->redirect();
    }

    public function facebookCallback()
    {
        try {
        
            $user = Socialite::driver('facebook')->user();
         
            $finduser = User::where('facebook_id', $user->id)->first();
        
            if($finduser){
         
                Auth::login($finduser);
        
                return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
         
            }else{
                $newUser = User::create([
                    'name' => $user->name,
                    'email' => $user->email,
                    'facebook_id'=> $user->id,
                    'password' => encrypt('Test123456')
                ]);
        
                Auth::login($newUser);
        
                return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
            }
        
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            dd($e->getMessage());
        }
    }
}

 

Step 7 : Create Route

Add below code in your route file.

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Controllers\LoginWithFacebookController;

Route::get('/redirect', [LoginWithFacebookController::class, 'redirectFacebook']);
Route::get('/callback', [LoginWithFacebookController::class, 'facebookCallback']);

 

Step 8 : Add Code in Blade File

 Now add below code in resources/views/auth/login.blade.php.

<x-guest-layout>
    <x-jet-authentication-card>
        <x-slot name="logo">
            <x-jet-authentication-card-logo />
        </x-slot>

        <x-jet-validation-errors class="mb-4" />

        @if (session('status'))
            <div class="mb-4 font-medium text-sm text-green-600">
                {{ session('status') }}
            </div>
        @endif

        <form method="POST" action="{{ route('login') }}">
            @csrf

            <div>
                <x-jet-label for="email" value="{{ __('Email') }}" />
                <x-jet-input id="email" class="block mt-1 w-full" type="email" name="email" :value="old('email')" required autofocus />
            </div>

            <div class="mt-4">
                <x-jet-label for="password" value="{{ __('Password') }}" />
                <x-jet-input id="password" class="block mt-1 w-full" type="password" name="password" required autocomplete="current-password" />
            </div>

            <div class="block mt-4">
                <label for="remember_me" class="flex items-center">
                    <input id="remember_me" type="checkbox" class="form-checkbox" name="remember">
                    <span class="ml-2 text-sm text-gray-600">{{ __('Remember me') }}</span>
                </label>
            </div>

            <div class="flex items-center justify-end mt-4">
                @if (Route::has('password.request'))
                    <a class="underline text-sm text-gray-600 hover:text-gray-900" href="{{ route('password.request') }}">
                        {{ __('Forgot your password?') }}
                    </a>
                @endif

                <x-jet-button class="ml-4">
                    {{ __('Login') }}
                </x-jet-button>
            </div>
            <div class="flex items-center justify-end mt-4">
                <a class="ml-1 btn btn-primary" href="{{ url('redirect') }}" style="margin-top: 0px !important;background: #4c6ef5;color: #ffffff;padding: 5px;border-radius:7px;" id="btn-fblogin">
                    <i class="fa fa-facebook-square" aria-hidden="true"></i> Login with Facebook
                </a>
            </div>
        </form>
    </x-jet-authentication-card>
</x-guest-layout>

 

 

Step 9 : Add Column in Database

In this step  add column in user table and set name as facebook_id.

php artisan make:migration Add_Facebook_Id_To_Users

 

Now, add new column in your code like below.

 public function up()
    {
        Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->string('facebook_id')->nullable();
        });
    }

 

Step 10 : Update Model

Now, update model as below.

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Fortify\TwoFactorAuthenticatable;
use Laravel\Jetstream\HasProfilePhoto;
use Laravel\Jetstream\HasTeams;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasApiTokens;
    use HasFactory;
    use HasProfilePhoto;
    use HasTeams;
    use Notifiable;
    use TwoFactorAuthenticatable;

    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'name', 'email', 'password','facebook_id',
    ];

    /**
     * The attributes that should be hidden for arrays.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $hidden = [
        'password',
        'remember_token',
        'two_factor_recovery_codes',
        'two_factor_secret',
    ];

    /**
     * The attributes that should be cast to native types.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $casts = [
        'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
    ];

    /**
     * The accessors to append to the model's array form.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $appends = [
        'profile_photo_url',
    ];
}

 

Now , we have done with our code and it's time to run our project.

you will get output like below image.
