Getting started #
See the example project to get up and running fast.
Or take a look at a live demo.
Platform Configuration #
...
Android integration #
Enable the Google services by configuring the Gradle scripts as such.
- Add the classpath to the
[project]/android/build.gradle
file.
dependencies {
// Example existing classpath
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
// Add the google services classpath
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.0'
}
- Add the apply plugin to the
[project]/android/app/build.gradle
file.
// ADD THIS AT THE BOTTOM
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
Note: If this section is not completed you will get an error like this:
java.lang.IllegalStateException:
Default FirebaseApp is not initialized in this process [package name].
Make sure to call FirebaseApp.initializeApp(Context) first.
Note: When you are debugging on android, use a device or AVD with Google Play services. Otherwise you will not be able to authenticate.
Web integration #
You'll need to modify the web/index.html
of your app following the Firebase setup instructions:
Read more in the firebase_auth_web
README.
Below is an example of a Flutter Web index.html
with Firebase Auth enabled:
...
<body>
<!-- GOOGLE SignIn Client ID -->
<meta name="google-signin-client_id" content="ADD-YOUR-CLIENT-ID.apps.googleusercontent.com">
<!-- The core Firebase JS SDK is always required and must be listed first -->
<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-app.js"></script>
<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-auth.js"></script>
<!-- TODO: Add SDKs for Firebase products that you want to use
https://firebase.google.com/docs/web/setup#available-libraries -->
<script>
// Your web app's Firebase configuration
var firebaseConfig = {
...// ADD CONFIG HERE
};
// Initialize Firebase
firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
</script>
<!-- CONTINUE TO INITIALIZE FLUTTER WEB -->
...
Usage #
The two most important widgets are
LitAuthInit
- which initializes the package and exposes the services that will be used in your application.LitAuth
- which renders the UI (forms, buttons and dialogs).
Lit Firebase Initialization #
First, you need to initialize the package with LitAuthInit
. This should be at the root of your application. Above MaterialApp
/CupertinoApp
, and above any widgets that want to access authentication functionality.
For example:
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// Needs to be above [MaterialApp]/[CupertinoApp]
return LitAuthInit(
// specify which auth providers to enable
authProviders: AuthProviders(
emailAndPassword: true, // enabled by default
google: true,
anonymous: true,
apple: AppleAuthProvider(
// required for web-based authentication flows (Android)
webAuthenticationOptions: WebAuthenticationOptions(
clientId: 'com.aboutyou.dart_packages.sign_in_with_apple.example', // example clientId
redirectUri: Uri.parse(
'https://flutter-sign-in-with-apple-example.glitch.me/callbacks/sign_in_with_apple', // example redirectUri
),
),
),
),
child: MaterialApp(
title: 'Material App',
home: Home(),
),
);
}
}
Standard Sign-in widget #
You can either create your own custom sign-in widget, or make use of the standard built in one. To use the standard sign-in form with no changes:
LitAuth();
This will use the default configuration and UI theming.
See the section on decoration and theming for customization.
NOTE: This widget needs to be a child of a Scaffold
widget.
Handle auth state changes #
To determine the current auth state, make use of LitAuthState
:
class Home extends StatelessWidget {
const Home({Key key}) : super(key: key);
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: LitAuthState(
authenticated: () => Text('Authenticated'), // Login widget, or sign in button
unauthenticated: () => Text('Not Authenticated'), // Authenticated widget, or sign out button
),
);
}
}
Auth success and failure #
You can provide optional callbacks in LitAuth
to handle success and failure when performing sign-in.
return LitAuth(
onAuthFailure: (failure) {
print('Auth failed.'); // show error message
},
onAuthSuccess: () {
print('Auth success.'); // navigate to new screen
},
);
Note: these handlers will not be called if LitAuth
is already disposed.
For example, if you were to wrap this LitAuth
in LitAuthState
, such as:
return LitAuthState(
authenticated: () =>
Text('Authenticated'), // Login widget, or sign in button
unauthenticated: () => LitAuth(
onAuthFailure: (failure) {
print('Auth failed.'); // show error message
},
onAuthSuccess: () {
print('Auth success.'); // will not be called
},
),
);
Then in this instance the onAuthSuccess
handler may not be called. As the authenticated
state will be triggered and the LitAuth
widget disposed.
Sign out #
To sign out the current user, make use of the signOut
extension method on BuildContext
. For example:
RaisedButton(
onPressed: () {
context.signOut();
},
child: Text('Sign out'),
);
Current user #
Get the current signed-in user:
context.getSignedInUser()
Determine if submitting is active #
Wether Lit Firebase is currently attempting to authenticate. Can be used to show a loading indicator.
Should only be used in the build method. For example:
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final isSubmitting = context.isSubmitting();
return Visibility(
visible: isSubmitting,
child: CircularProgressIndicator(),
);
}
Authentication Providers #
For the time being, Lit Firebase auth will only directly provide Google and Apple sign in.
NOTE: Apple requires Apple sign in to be a sign-in option if any other third-party sign-in option is used.
Other identity providers (Facebook, Github, etc.) will need to be implemented seperately. After successful third party sign in, you can sign in to Firebase by making use of the signInWithCredential
method available on BuildContext
.
For example:
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
AuthCredential credential = // get credential for identity provider (Facebook, Github, etc.)
context.signInWithCredential(credential);
}
Decoration and theming #
The UI can be as customizable as you need. But for simple usage it's fairly straight forward.
It's easy to provide custom decoration/configuration for the sign-in elements. You can either customize the elements of the standard sign-in widget, or create an entirely custom sign-in widget from scratch. Up to you.
Standard Sign-in widget customization #
For example, to override the standard email InputDecoration
just provide a custom InputDecoration
for the emailTextFormField
:
return LitAuth(
config: AuthConfig(
emailTextFormField: InputDecoration(labelText: 'My beautiful label'),
)
);
Or, to customize a button:
return LitAuth(
config: AuthConfig(
googleButton: ButtonConfig(
type: ButtonType.raised(),
themeData: ButtonThemeData(
buttonColor: Colors.red,
),
child: Text('My styled Google Sign-in'),
),
),
);
Dialogs #
Dialog message are rendered using the flushbar
package. Further customization will be available in a later version.
todo: provide additional theming/overrides for dialogs.
Additional Customization #
For further customization you can directly make use of the Lit Firebase components to build a completely custom sign-in widget.
Instead of using the standard AuthConfig
, set it to custom and provide your custom sign-in widget:
return LitAuth.custom(
child: YourCustomSignInWidget(),
);
You can build any form you want, for example:
class YourCustomSignInWidget extends StatelessWidget {
const CustomSignInWidget({Key key}) : super(key: key);
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Column(
children: [
Text('Welcome', style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline4),
// You need to wrap the custom sign-in widgets with a SignInForm.
// This is used to validate the email and password
SignInForm(
formChild: Column(
children: [
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: Text(
'A custom form',
style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline5,
),
),
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: EmailTextFormField(
decoration: InputDecoration(labelText: 'My Email Label'),
),
),
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: PasswordTextFormField(
decoration: InputDecoration(labelText: 'My Password Label'),
),
),
RaisedButton(
onPressed: () {
context.signInWithEmailAndPassword();
},
child: Text('Sign In'),
),
FlatButton(
onPressed: () {
context.signInAnonymously();
},
child: Text('Anony Sign In'),
),
],
),
),
],
);
}
}
