How to trigger authentication with React frontend? about django-graphql-social-auth HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @paymog ,
There are many ways to login on the client side:

1. Login with URL redirect HTTP 302
   You can configure the Python Social Auth urls.
   https://python-social-auth-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration/django.html#urls-entries

2. Login without leaving the page

   2.1. Popup (iframe)
   With some JS, you can open a popup window where the user can do the authentication and the popup can be closed when the user is redirected back to the final URL.

   2.2. Client-side JS SDK and GraphQL validation
   Some of the services support JS based login. In this case, you can obtain the access_token and send it through the Mutation SocialAuth to validate the token and save the instance into database, however with Github this is not possible.

(2.2...) I found this, the flow consists of obtaining a provisional code on the client-side and validate it on the backend to obtain the access_token.
I could include a Mutation that receives this code as input and then call the backend.auth_complete() function (Python-Social-Auth) to return the access_token.

Thanks for the response @mongkok! I ended up using Firebase for client side authentication and sending the access token that Firebase retrieves to the backend and it works flawlessly. Thank you again for making this package, it's super useful.

ok @paymog !,

anyway, I have created a proof of concept for OAuth2 authentication using the provisional code, it woks!, I will create a PR soon.

This is a the url to get the code for Github
https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize?client_id=CLIENT-ID&response_type=code&redirect_uri=REDIRECT-URI

and this library could provide two alternatives to authenticate users, via access_token or sending the provisional code.

I'm trying to integrate the socialAuth mutation with my react frontend, but it is not working.
Is there anything @mongkok @paymog or any link that you can share which might help me with integrating with my react frontend.
Thanks.

@mongkok I'm still waiting for PR with code support
