For serveral days now I am trying to get OAuth authentication with Google and Facebook to work within my ASP.net core web api project.
my current status is:
You have to copy the custom code available in this article on medium
Creat a function in AccountController.cs
private async Task<ExternalLoginInfo> AuthenticationManager_GetExternalLoginInfoAsync_WithExternalBearer()
And paste the code given in the article
If I undertsand correctly, you already have your Facebook user token from Facebook SDK through your app.
Like you I couldn't find how to do it with an ASP.NET Core library / package. So I went back to basics.
I just call a endpoint of my api with the Facebook token, check it against the Facebook graph api and if fine then I register the user (if required) and return my JWT token as if the user logged through a classical username / password path.
[HttpPost]
[AllowAnonymous]
[Route("api/authentication/FacebookLogin")]
public async Task<IActionResult> FacebookLogin([FromBody] FacebookToken facebookToken)
{
//check token
var httpClient = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri("https://graph.facebook.com/v2.9/") };
var response = await httpClient.GetAsync($"me?access_token={facebookToken.Token}&fields=id,name,email,first_name,last_name,age_range,birthday,gender,locale,picture");
if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode) return BadRequest();
var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
var facebookAccount = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<FacebookAccount>(result);
//register if required
var facebookUser = _context.FacebookUsers.SingleOrDefault(x => x.Id == facebookAccount.Id);
if (facebookUser == null)
{
var user = new ApplicationUser {UserName = facebookAccount.Name, Email = facebookAccount.Email};
var result2 = await _userManager.CreateAsync(user);
if (!result2.Succeeded) return BadRequest();
facebookUser = new FacebookUser {Id = facebookAccount.Id, UserId = user.Id};
_context.FacebookUsers.Add(facebookUser);
_context.SaveChanges();
}
//send bearer token
return Ok(GetToken(facebookUser.UserId));
}
