Laravel 9 - Login with Google using Socialite

Quick Overview

Step # 1 : Create Fresh Laravel Project.

laravel new google

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

Step # 2 : Create a Database.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=google
DB_USERNAME="your database username"
DB_PASSWORD="your database password"

Step # 3 : Let's install UI authentication.

composer require laravel/ui
php artisan ui vue --auth
npm install && npm run dev

Step # 4 : Add field to users table.

$table->id();
$table->string('google_id')->nullable();
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->timestamp('email_verified_at')->nullable();
$table->string('password');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();

    protected $fillable = [
        'google_id',
        'name',
        'email',
        'password',
    ];

php artisan migrate

Step # 5 : Install Socialite package.

composer require laravel/socialite

Step # 6 : Register socialite package (Optional)

'providers' => [
    Laravel\Socialite\SocialiteServiceProvider::class,
],
'aliases' => [
    'Socialite' => Laravel\Socialite\Facades\Socialite::class,
],

Step # 7 : Get google client_id, client_secret and assign app_url at Google Dev console.

 'google' => [
        'client_id' => 'google app id',
        'client_secret' => 'google add secret',
        'redirect' => 'http://localhost:8080/auth/google/callback', //Your redirect call back. In my case i am using port 8080. If you are using port 8000 or if you are not using any port you need to update url accordingly
    ],

Step # 8 : Create SocialController.

php artisan make:controller SocialController

<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\User;
use Validator;
use Socialite;
use Exception;
use Auth;
class SocialController extends Controller
{
    public function googleRedirect()
    {
        return Socialite::driver('google')->redirect();
    }
    public function loginWithGoogle()
    {
        try {
            $user = Socialite::driver('google')->stateless()->user();
            $existingUser = User::where('google_id', $user->id)->first();
            if($existingUser){
                Auth::login($existingUser);
                return redirect('/home');
            }else{
                $createUser = User::create([
                    'name' => $user->name,
                    'email' => $user->email,
                    'google_id' => $user->id,
                    'password' => encrypt('admin@123')
                ]);
                Auth::login($createUser);
                return redirect('/home');
            }
        } catch (\Throwable $th) {
          throw $th;
       }
    }
}

Step # 9 : Setup routes.

Route::get('auth/google', 'App\Http\Controllers\SocialController@googleRedirect');
Route::get('auth/google/callback', 'App\Http\Controllers\SocialController@loginWithGoogle');

Step # 10 : Add Google login href to your Login/Register blade.

<div class="row mb-3">
<label for="password" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end"></label>
<div class="col-md-6">
<a class="btn btn-primary" href="{{ url('auth/google') }}"> Login with Google</a>
</div>
</div>

Step # 11 : Test the implementation.

php artisan serve
