Summary
JavaScript and
PHP libraries to integrate Google sign-in into the website.
Notes
- After MockSMTP crashed and burned, I started to rethink the sign-in process and decided to look at third-party identity providers.
- Setting up credentials with Google was straightforward.
- The JavaScript and PHP libraries and example scripts are easy to find.
- I do have one complaint, the Google sign-in is a little trigger happy. Once you sign-in it automatically signs in again each time you return. Even signing out does not seem to guarantee that this won't happen. Forcing a disconnect right after a successful sign-in got me closer to the desired behavior but this seems like overkill.
