Discover how to easily set up social login using Supabase with just a few steps. This guide explains all you need to know to integrate seamless authentication for a smooth user experience.
Using Supabase for social login makes signing in a breeze, letting people use their social media accounts. This neat feature taps into OAuth providers such as Google, GitHub, or Facebook to keep user info secure without much hassle. To enable this in Supabase, just configure the right authentication settings, add the provider's credentials, and tweak your front-end to handle these new login methods. It's a win for user experience, cutting down the hassle of creating accounts manually. Follow this step-by-step guide to dive in.
http://localhost:3000
for local development and your production URLs.Install the Supabase client in your frontend project using npm or yarn:
```bash
npm install @supabase/supabase-js
```
Initialize the Supabase client in your project with the URL and public API key found in the "Settings" -> "API" section of your Supabase dashboard:
```javascript
import { createClient } from '@supabase/supabase-js'
const supabaseUrl = 'https://your-project-ref.supabase.co'
const supabaseKey = 'public-anon-key'
const supabase = createClient(supabaseUrl, supabaseKey)
```
Add buttons in your frontend to handle authentication with each provider:
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import supabase from './supabaseClient'; // Adjust the path accordingly
const loginWithProvider = async (provider) => {
const { user, session, error } = await supabase.auth.signIn({
provider: provider,
});
if (error) {
console.error('Error:', error.message);
}
else {
console.log('User:', user);
console.log('Session:', session);
}
};
const AuthButtons = () => (
export default AuthButtons;
```
Render the AuthButtons
component within your app.
Use the Supabase client to listen for authentication state changes and manage user sessions:
```javascript
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import supabase from './supabaseClient'; // Adjust the path accordingly
const useAuthState = () => {
const [user, setUser] = useState(null);
useEffect(() => {
const session = supabase.auth.session();
setUser(session?.user ?? null);
const { data: authListener } = supabase.auth.onAuthStateChange((_event, session) => {
setUser(session?.user ?? null);
});
return () => {
authListener?.unsubscribe();
};
}, []);
return user;
};
export default useAuthState;
```
In your components, use the useAuthState
hook to conditionally render content based on the user's authentication state:
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import AuthButtons from './AuthButtons'; // Adjust the path accordingly
import useAuthState from './useAuthState'; // Adjust the path accordingly
const App = () => {
const user = useAuthState();
return (
export default App;
```
Make sure to handle user state properly throughout your app to reflect the login status.
Following these steps will enable secure and efficient social login authentication within your Supabase-powered application.
