How to use hybridauth plugin with CakePHP 3.x?

Question

I use CakePHP 3.x to create a page can make a social sign in. I found HybridAuth plugin can do that. But, I can\'t understand about configuration and flow.

Have you read this page yet? http://miftyisbored.com/complete-social-login-application-tutorial-cakephp-2-3-twitter-facebook-google/

This would help you to put hybridauth into CakePHP 3.0, but you need to change some points in CakePHP3 way, like:

// config/hybridauth.php

return [
  'HybridAuth' => [
    'base_url' => 'URL here',
    'providers' => [
      'Twitter' => [...]
    ]
];

and

// src/Controller/Component/HybridauthComponent.php

// App::import('Vendor', 'hybridauth/Hybrid/Auth');
// $this->hybridauth = new Hybrid_Auth( $config );
$this->hybridauth = new \Hybrid_Auth( $config );

In addition, check this document.

https://github.com/ADmad/CakePHP-HybridAuth/blob/master/README.md

It says you need to initialize the Auth component, but it didn't work this way, so I put these options like this:

// src/Controller/AppController.php

public function initialize()
{
  $this->loadComponent('Auth', [
    'authenticate' => [
      'ADmad/HybridAuth.HybridAuth'
    ],
    // redirect here if the user not authorized
    'loginAction' => [
      'controller' => 'User',
      'action' => 'login',
    ],
   ]);
}
