README
Überauth VK
VK OAuth2 strategy for Überauth.
Requirements
We support elixir
versions 1.4
and above.
Installation
Setup your application at VK Developers.
Add
:ueberauth_vk
to your list of dependencies inmix.exs
:def deps do # installation via hex: [{:ueberauth_vk, "~> 0.3"}] # if you want to use github: # [{:ueberauth_vk, github: "sobolevn/ueberauth_vk"}] end
Add the strategy to your applications:
def application do [applications: [:ueberauth_vk]] end
Add VK to your Überauth configuration:
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth, providers: [ vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, []} ]
Update your provider configuration:
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.VK.OAuth, client_id: System.get_env("VK_CLIENT_ID"), client_secret: System.get_env("VK_CLIENT_SECRET")
Include the Überauth plug in your controller:
defmodule MyApp.AuthController do use MyApp.Web, :controller plug Ueberauth ... end
Create the request and callback routes if you haven't already:
scope "/auth", MyApp do pipe_through :browser get "/:provider", AuthController, :request get "/:provider/callback", AuthController, :callback end
You controller needs to implement callbacks to deal with
Ueberauth.Auth
andUeberauth.Failure
responses.
For an example implementation see the Überauth Example application.
Customizing
You can customize multiple fields, such as default_scope
, default_display
, default_state
, profile_fields
, and uid_field
.
Scope
By default the requested scope is "public_profile"
. Scope can be configured either explicitly as a scope
query value on the request path or in your configuration:
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [default_scope: "friends,video,offline"]}
]
Profile Fields
You can also provide custom fields for user profile:
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [profile_fields: "photo_200,location,online"]}
]
See VK API Method Reference > User for full list of fields.
State
You can also set the custom field called state
. It is used to prevent "man in the middle" attacks.
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [default_state: "secret-state-value"]}
]
This state will be passed to you in the callback as /auth/vk?state=<session_id>
and will be available in the success struct.
UID Field
You can use alternate fields to identify users. For example, you can use email
.
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [
default_scope: "email",
uid_field: :email
]}
]
