Hi all,
I am integrating spring social into an existing spring web app that uses spring web flow.
I am having trouble just getting anything to work right.
A bit about my app:
*Uses Spring/ Spring Web Flow
* "Backend" web app for admin purposes
What my goal is:
* I need to integrate the social component for only a handful of users.
* Only AFTER the user logs into our system, THEN the user can login to Twitter / Facebook/ Instagram .
* The user can perform action specific to the SaaS provider. (can post new posts on Facebook).
* I do NOT need the log in through provider feature (ProviderSignInController).
* Save the accessToken (connection info) in a DB (postgres) for future connections.
I am using the "quickstart" sample app from github.
I have integrated the xml settings (to the best of my ability) and installed the needed jars. This appears to be configured ok, i have no errors upon deployment and the web app runs.
I have the "login" page being displayed via SWF. Its lives in folder directory "/flows/social/signin"
Screen Shot 2013-03-28 at 1.58.50 PM.png
This page displays the "log into facebook" button. Same as from the quickstart sample app.
FIRST ISSUE: When I click "login to facebook" I get a 404. Page not found error when I click this button.
Where am I messing up? And also, how is the ConnectController receiving the request parameter "facebook" in this case?
According to the reference doc, this controller automatically reads the request and takes the provider id from that, is that correct????
I am basically trying to kickoff the OAuth dance for facebook with no luck.
I have been reading the manual/ reference docs on all things Spring Social vigorously, and attacking StackOverflow and here in springsource community.... but I am stumped.
SECOND: Do I remove ProviderSignInController completely? I have commented it out.
THIRD: I have way more questions lol, first things first.
Any help would be awesome!
Thanks!
Here are my modified HomeController, WebMVC and SocialConfig classes:
HomeController.java
