INTRODUCTION

Social Auth PBS is a PBS authentication integration for Drupal.

REQUIREMENTS

This module requires the following modules:

• Social Auth
• Social API

INSTALLATION

• Run composer to install the dependencies: composer require 'drupal/social_auth_pbs'

• Install the dependencies: Social API and Social Auth.

• Install as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module. See: https://drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-8 for further information.

CONFIGURATION

• Add your PBS project OAuth information in Configuration » User Authentication » PBS.

• Place a Social Auth Login block in Structure » Block Layout.

• If you already have a Social Auth Login block in the site, rebuild the cache.

HOW IT WORKS

User can click on the PBS logo in the Social Auth Login block. You can also add a button or link anywhere on the site that points to /user/login/pbs, so theming and customizing the button or link is very flexible.

When the user opens the /user/login/pbs link, it automatically takes user to PBS for authentication. PBS then returns the user to Drupal site. If there is an existing Drupal user with the same email address provided by PBS, that user is logged in. Otherwise, a new Drupal user is created.

This module also supports login via the PBS provided Facebook and Google OAuth2 flows. These methods are only supported by URL access (no block buttons are provided):

• Facebook: social_auth_pbs.redirect_to_facebook (/user/login/pbs-facebook)

• Google: social_auth_pbs.redirect_to_google (/user/login/pbs-google)

It is also possible to send users through a PBS Account creation flow by supplying a URL encoded version of the PBS login route to the next parameter of PBS's OAuth2 account creation form page. E.g. [url]?next=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fuser%2Flogin%2Fpbs.
