Hello,
If you are like me, once you have a great idea, you just want to just
get started building it - and not spend all your time doing basic
website housekeeping. So to chip in, I've spent a few days putting
together a basic CakePHP setup for managing user registration/logins
using Social Networking sites AND basic user/group permissions. This
setup was put together from the following posts:
Users-Groups-Permissions using Auth Component
*

OpenId User registration using RpxNow.com (login using existing Yahoo/
Google/etc. account)
* https://rpxnow.com/
* https://rpxnow.com/get (Free Basic Plan)
* NOTE: uses HttpClient class from Zend Framework,
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.http.html
I spent a bit of time debugging Session Auth data to keep it
synchronized with the current user, and fixed the login redirect
mechanism so it was easier to manage. Plus, I added support for
"Guest" session logins with 'guest' group permissions, which can be
later upgraded into a fully registered login at a later time.
Since I don't know how to make a CakePHP plugin, email me if you want
a zipfile to play with.
In exchange, I'm looking for someone to help me enhance this
configuration to give full access to the big social networking sites
(i.e. facebook, google, yahoo/flickr, twitter, etc.) For example,
with rpxnow() I can login via Yahoo, but then I have to authorize
AGAIN to get access to Flickr photos. I'd rather just authorize with
Flickr once. It would also be nice to access Facebook friends without
paying for the rpxnow upgrade.
Anyone?
