Implement Oauth PCKE flow

Hi, I want to implement social logins into custom auth, but these all require a callback route and I was wondering how to deal with all that on refine.

Hi @BlackBearFTW. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To implement OAuth PKCE flow and social logins with custom auth in refine, you'll need to handle the callback route and integrate it with refine's authentication system. Here's how you can approach this: 1. First, set up your OAuth provider. For example, if you're using Okta, you can create an OktaAuth instance as shown in the Okta Auth Provider documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/enterprise-edition/okta/#usage):

import OktaAuth from "@okta/okta-auth-js";

const oktaAuth = new OktaAuth({
  issuer: "<https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default",>
  clientId: "{clientId}",
  redirectUri: window.location.origin + "/login/callback",
  scopes: ["openid", "email", "profile", "offline_access"],
  pkce: true,
  devMode: true,
});

import OktaAuth from "@okta/okta-auth-js";

const oktaAuth = new OktaAuth({
  issuer: "<https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default",>
  clientId: "{clientId}",
  redirectUri: window.location.origin + "/login/callback",
  scopes: ["openid", "email", "profile", "offline_access"],
  pkce: true,
  devMode: true,
});

2. Create a custom auth provider that handles the OAuth flow. You can use the createAuthProvider function provided by refine for your specific OAuth provider, or implement your own based on the AuthProvider interface (https://refine.dev/docs/guides-concepts/authentication/auth-provider-interface/). 3. In your routing setup, add a route for the callback. For example, if you're using react-router:

<Route
  path="/login/callback"
  element={<OktaCallback />}
/>

<Route
  path="/login/callback"
  element={<OktaCallback />}
/>

4. In your <Refine> component, pass your custom auth provider:

<Refine
  authProvider={authProvider}
  // ... other props
>
  {/* ... */}
</Refine>

<Refine
  authProvider={authProvider}
  // ... other props
>
  {/* ... */}
</Refine>

5. Implement the login method in your auth provider to handle social logins. For example:

const authProvider: AuthProvider = {
  login: async ({ providerName }) => {
    if (providerName === "google") {
      window.location.href = "<https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth";>
      return {
        success: true,
      };
    }
    // Handle other providers...
  },
  // ... other methods
};

const authProvider: AuthProvider = {
  login: async ({ providerName }) => {
    if (providerName === "google") {
      window.location.href = "<https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth";>
      return {
        success: true,
      };
    }
    // Handle other providers...
  },
  // ... other methods
};

6. In your login component, you can use the useLogin hook to trigger the login process:

import { useLogin } from "@refinedev/core";

const { mutate: login } = useLogin();

// In your login button handler:
login({ providerName: "google" });

import { useLogin } from "@refinedev/core";

const { mutate: login } = useLogin();

// In your login button handler:
login({ providerName: "google" });

This approach allows you to implement social logins and handle the OAuth PKCE flow within refine's authentication system. The callback route is handled by your routing setup, and the auth provider takes care of the authentication logic. For more detailed information on implementing custom authentication and social logins in refine, you can refer to the following resources: - Authentication Guide (https://refine.dev/docs/guides-concepts/authentication/#oauth-integrations) - Auth Provider Interface (https://refine.dev/docs/guides-concepts/authentication/auth-provider-interface/) - Social Logins with Supabase (https://refine.dev/docs/data/packages/supabase/#social-logins) Remember to adjust the implementation based on your specific OAuth provider and requirements. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
