# Setting up Firebase Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
1. The latest version of Android Studio
|
||||
2. Have connected with Firebase manually or via Firebase Assistant (See [Connecting to Firebase](guide/src/pages/android-development/firebase/connecting-to-firebase)).
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended that you do this so as to not be confused by partial instructions related to this in the docs mentioned below.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting it up with Android Studio
|
||||
|
||||
After adding Firebase to your project, you will need to add extra dependencies and do some other things in order to setup
|
||||
the Firebase Authentication for Google sign-in. There are following documentation about this:
|
||||
|
||||
* [Firebase](https://firebase.google.com/docs/storage/android/start)
|
||||
|
||||
There may be chance of confusion in that documentation or if you are new to firebase then you may face little bit hard to understand it.
|
||||
So follow the belows steps carefully:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**Add Gradle Dependencies**
|
||||
|
||||
In your app-level build.gradle file, add the following
|
||||
|
||||
```java
|
||||
dependencies {
|
||||
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.0.4'
|
||||
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:16.0.1'
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
## Installation of Firebase Android SDK, permissions and setup code
|
||||
Detailed instructions for these can be found [here](https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/setup).
|
||||
|
||||
## Resources
|
||||
|
||||
* [SHA-1 fingerprint](https://developers.google.com/android/guides/client-auth)
|
||||
|
||||
It is important that after you connect your project to firebase you should specify SHA-1 fingerprint, do so from the Settings page of the Firebase console.
|
||||
|
||||
* [Enable Google Sign-In in the Firebase console]
|
||||
1. In the Firebase console, open the Auth section.
|
||||
|
||||
2. On the Sign in method tab, enable the Google sign-in method and click Save.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
There are four steps that must be followed for the sign-in:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Integrate Google Sign-In bt following the link attached [Integrating Google Sign-In into Your Android App page](https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/sign-in) this helps in setting up the login button, checking for existing users etc. When you configure the GoogleSignInOptions object, call requestIdToken:
|
||||
```
|
||||
GoogleSignInOptions gso = new GoogleSignInOptions.Builder(GoogleSignInOptions.DEFAULT_SIGN_IN)
|
||||
.requestIdToken(getString(R.string.default_web_client_id))
|
||||
.requestEmail()
|
||||
.build();
|
||||
```
|
||||
You must pass your server's client ID to the requestIdToken method. To find the OAuth 2.0 client ID:
|
||||
1. Open the [Credentials](https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials) page in the API Console.
|
||||
2. The Web application type client ID is your backend server's OAuth 2.0 client ID.
|
||||
|
||||
After you integrate Google Sign-In, your sign-in activity has code similar to the following:
|
||||
```
|
||||
private void signIn() {
|
||||
Intent signInIntent = mGoogleSignInClient.getSignInIntent();
|
||||
startActivityForResult(signInIntent, RC_SIGN_IN);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
@Override
|
||||
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
|
||||
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
|
||||
|
||||
// Result returned from launching the Intent from GoogleSignInApi.getSignInIntent(...);
|
||||
if (requestCode == RC_SIGN_IN) {
|
||||
Task<GoogleSignInAccount> task = GoogleSignIn.getSignedInAccountFromIntent(data);
|
||||
try {
|
||||
// Google Sign In was successful, authenticate with Firebase
|
||||
GoogleSignInAccount account = task.getResult(ApiException.class);
|
||||
firebaseAuthWithGoogle(account);
|
||||
} catch (ApiException e) {
|
||||
// Google Sign In failed, update UI appropriately
|
||||
Log.w(TAG, "Google sign in failed", e);
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. In your sign-in activity's onCreate method, get the shared instance of the FirebaseAuth object:
|
||||
```
|
||||
private FirebaseAuth mAuth;
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
// Initialize Firebase Auth
|
||||
mAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance();
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. It is important to check if the a user has already participated and initialized his gmail account with application hence onStart you need to test the user status:
|
||||
```
|
||||
@Override
|
||||
public void onStart() {
|
||||
super.onStart();
|
||||
// Check if user is signed in (non-null) and update UI accordingly.
|
||||
FirebaseUser currentUser = mAuth.getCurrentUser();
|
||||
if(currentUser!=Null){
|
||||
//User exists
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. Finally, after a user successfully signs in, get the ID token from the GoogleSignInAccount object, exchange it for a Firebase credential, and authenticate with Firebase using the Firebase credential, without this step your user details will not be logged in the Firebase Auth user list:
|
||||
```
|
||||
private void firebaseAuthWithGoogle(GoogleSignInAccount acct) {
|
||||
Log.d(TAG, "firebaseAuthWithGoogle:" + acct.getId());
|
||||
|
||||
AuthCredential credential = GoogleAuthProvider.getCredential(acct.getIdToken(), null);
|
||||
mAuth.signInWithCredential(credential)
|
||||
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
|
||||
@Override
|
||||
public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
|
||||
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
|
||||
// Sign in success, update UI with the signed-in user's information
|
||||
Log.d(TAG, "signInWithCredential:success");
|
||||
FirebaseUser user = mAuth.getCurrentUser();
|
||||
updateUI(user);
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
// If sign in fails, display a message to the user.
|
||||
Log.w(TAG, "signInWithCredential:failure", task.getException());
|
||||
Snackbar.make(findViewById(R.id.main_layout), "Authentication Failed.", Snackbar.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
|
||||
updateUI(null);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
## Note
|
||||
Google now deprecated 'compile' and in place of that you need to use 'implementation'.
