Validate login in php with google

To implement login with Google in PHP, you can use Google's OAuth 2.0 authentication system. Here are the steps to validate a user's login with Google in PHP:

Create a Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Project:

Go to the Google Cloud Console (https://console.cloud.google.com/).

Create a new project if you don't have one.

Set up OAuth 2.0 Credentials:

In your GCP project, navigate to the "APIs & Services" > "Credentials" section.

Click the "Create Credentials" button and select "OAuth client ID."

Choose "Web application" as the application type.

Add authorized JavaScript origins and redirect URIs. For development, you can use http://localhost as the redirect URI.

Click the "Create" button to generate your client ID and client secret.

Install Required Libraries:

You'll need to use the Google API client library for PHP. You can install it using Composer:

codecomposer require google/apiclient:"^2.0"

PHP Code for Google Login:

php code

<?php

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php'; // Include the Google API client library

session_start();

$client = new Google_Client();

$client->setClientId('YOUR_CLIENT_ID');

$client->setClientSecret('YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET');

$client->setRedirectUri('YOUR_REDIRECT_URI');

$client->addScope('email');

$client->addScope('profile');

if (isset($_GET['code'])) {

    try {

        $client->fetchAccessTokenWithAuthCode($_GET['code']);

        $userinfo = $client->verifyIdToken();

        // $userinfo contains user data

        $_SESSION['user_data'] = $userinfo;

        // You can use $userinfo to authenticate the user and perform other actions

        // For example, you can check if the user already exists in your database and log them in.

        header('Location: logged-in.php'); // Redirect to a logged-in page

        exit();

    } catch (Exception $e) {

        // Handle error

        echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();

    }

} else {

    $authUrl = $client->createAuthUrl();

    echo '<a href="' . $authUrl . '">Login with Google</a>';

}

Replace 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID', 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET', and 'YOUR_REDIRECT_URI' with the values from your Google Cloud Console project.

Create a logged-in.php page to handle authenticated users. In this page, you can use the user data stored in $_SESSION['user_data'] for further actions.

This code sets up a basic Google login system in PHP using OAuth 2.0. Users will be redirected to Google for authentication, and upon successful login, their user data will be stored in the $_SESSION variable. You can then use this data to authenticate and authorize users in your application.
