Sending additional parameters to callback uri in socialite package for laravel

Question

Im trying to use Socialite package for laravel and I would like to know how to pass additional parameters to callback url. It seems that OAuth allows additional params, but

Answer 1

You can update on the fly callback URL as like:

public function redirectToProvider($providerName)
{
    config([
        "services.$providerName.redirect" => config("services.$providerName.redirect").'?queryString=test'
    ]);

    try {
        return Socialite::driver($providerName)->redirect();

    } catch (\Exception $e) {

        return redirect('login');

    }

}

It return queryString (request->all()) in callback URL function.

Answer 2

Changing redirect_uri in config on fly will redirect back to the intended domain but it does not return the user when tried to get user with following

Socialite::driver($social)->user()

Answer 3

You need to use state param if you want to pass some data.

Example for your provider

$provider = 'google';
return Socialite::with(['state' => $provider])->redirect();

Your callback function:

$provider = request()->input('state');
$driver = Socialite::driver($provider)->stateless();

Answer 4

For some reason, Optional Parameters didn't work for me, so i ended up by using session to pass variables from redirect method to the callback method. it's not the best way to do it, but it does the trick.

Simplified example

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\User;
use Socialite;

class FacebookController extends Controller {

    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function redirect($my_variable)
    {
        session(['my_variable' => $my_variable]);

        return Socialite::driver('facebook')->redirect();
    }


    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function callback(Request $request)
    {
        try {

            $facebookAccount = Socialite::driver('facebook')->stateless()->user();

            $my_variable = session('my_variable');

            // your logic...

            return redirect()->route('route.name');


        } catch (Exception $e) {


            return redirect()->route('auth.facebook');
        }
    }
}
