make Provider stateless,put id into session not Provider

provider = AuthProviderFactory.getInstance(id);
String url = provider.getLoginRedirectURL(returnToUrl);
session.setAttribute("SocialAuth", id);

then

AuthProvider provider = 
uthProviderFactory.getInstance((String)session.getAttribute("SocialAuth"));
Profile p = provider.verifyResponse(request);



maybe you can add a getConsumerManager()/setConsumerManager() for 
OpenIdImpl,let developer implement stateless ConsumerAssociationStore and set 
it into ConsumerManager

Hello BrickRed team,

SocialAuth is a very nice idea. Thank you for the tool.
Though the provider classes not being serialized is pretty annoying.
Please fix it as soon as possible since we plan to use this for our enterprise 
project.

One more question. Is it necessary that the provider obj got by line in one 
servlet / action class..
   AuthProvider provider = AuthProviderFactory.getInstance( id );
be reused at line
   Profile profile = provider.verifyResponse( request );
in the next servlet / action class..

zhouyanming wer you abl to work arnd the prb? setting id into session & then 
geting the provider back from id dint wrk for me..Please inform of any 
workaround if there is any.

Hi Srinivas

Thanks for your nice comment.
We are going to release beta version and will try to resolve the serialize 
problem in this release.

Setting id into session and getting back that id from session will not work. 
You'll have to put provider object into session and get back it from there.

Tarun

where is the beta release! any problems or blockage? we have been waiting for a 
long time now. Sorry for the repeated requests.

Thank you,
Srinivas

Hi Srinivas

It is almost ready and You'll get it as a new year gift.

Hi Srinivas,

We did test the provider object by writing in a file, and it was working. One 
thing that you can do to help us is - try to switch on the logging for our 
library, it now has many logs so if we are able to see that it will give us 
much more information.

In any case, we will look it up as well.

Warm regards,
Abhinav

Hello Abhinav,

i turned on the log for GoogleImpl since that is the only one we are using 
(with anonymous consumer key & secret). In the dev server of app engine 
everything works like a charm but after uploading it things hang at
Profile profile = provider.verifyResponse( request );

when SetupLoginServlet is called these are the logs..
01-01 07:11AM 34.618
org.brickred.socialauth.provider.GoogleImpl getLoginRedirectURL: Determining 
URL for redirection

but in LoginSuccessServlet there are no logs from GoogleImpl..
things stop at 
com.test.server.servlet.LoginSuccessServlet doGet: getting profile
(which is my servlets log)

Thank you,
Srinivas

Srinivas Upadhya

That is great to know Srinivas ! All the best for your social application :)

Is there a way to make entire app stateless. It looks i have to keep Auth 
Provider in session. Doing so is giving problem in clustered env? 

Is there any workaround for this?

No, its not possible with current jar.
But all classes are serializable, so you can persist the AuthProvider Object.
You can use any session management technique in cluster environment to make it 
work.

Hi,

https://www.cvsintellect.com
Here is the app using socialauth for linked-in, facebook & google oauth login 
running on GAE.
We extended linkedinimpl to import the whole of user profile. planning to do 
the same from facebook.
We have mentioned socialauth in credits section: 
https://www.cvsintellect.com/public/page/credits
Just wanted to thank you again :)

Regards,
Srinivas

Hi Srinivas

Thanks for mentioning SoicalAuth on your website credits section.

Hi,

I was thinking of contributing full linked-in profile import back to 
social-auth.
The linked-in xml profile parser is already open-sourced by me here: 
https://github.com/cvsintellect/linkedin-import
Can you please let me know how i can contribute back.
Please note that this will introduce 3 more jars:
linkedin-import.jar
simple-xml-2.6.6.jar
commons-io-2.4.jar

Regards,
Srinivas
