Login with Facebook using Java - Tutorial

Tuesday, 25 November 2014 | Posted by Sample

Facebook is providing OAuth Service. You can implement Facebook Login on your website so that user doesn't need to remember another password for your website. You will also get worthy email addresses to connect with users. Get Google GSON Java Library to handle JSON responses.

OAuth 2.0 Flow

User will click on Auth login link
Facebook Auth server will show permission screen to user
Once user accepts to the scope, It will send code to App Server ( Redirect URI)
Once we got code, get access token by using client secret id
Access User's Information using that access token

Get OAuth 2.0 Credentials from Facebook App Dashboard

Go to Facebook Developer's Page.
Go to Apps > Add New App
Enter Site URL and Mobile Site URL. You need to enter your Site URL here. for example "http://demo.sodhanalibrary.com/". After processing User permissions screen, facebook will redirect the code value to this URL
Goto Dashboard of the above created app, There you can see your app client id and secret id.
If you want to make your app available to public, You need to enter lot of app details. Be patience and complete them.

Demo - Login With Facebook Using Java

Download Project

Download sample project from here. Open Setup.java and give required app details. Open auth/facebook.html modify the login URL

Form the URL

Now we need to create a button with Auth URL. Syntax of the URL is

https://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth?[parameters]

Some important Query Paramenters

client_id: Which you got at Facebook developer's app dashboard
redirect_uri: Redirect URI to which code has to be redirected
scope: to get profile info give profile as scope, to get email address give email as scope

The Auth URL get Users Email Address

https://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth?
client_id= client id
&redirect_uri= redirect URI

&scope=email

&scope=user_friends

Get Access Token

Once user click on above link, It will ask for User's permission to provide information to your site. Once user click on accept it will redirect to Your APP Redirect URI?code=[some code here]. Here you will get code value at server side. So you need to access this from Java or PHP or any other server side language.

Get Code value and format URL

String code = request.getParameter("code");
URL url = new URL("https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id="
        + clientID + "&redirect_uri=" + redirectURI
        + "&client_secret=" + clientSecret
        + "&code=" + code);

Send request for Access Token

HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.setRequestMethod("GET");
String line, outputString = "";
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
        new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
    outputString += line;
}
System.out.println(outputString);
String accessToken = null;
if(outputString.indexOf("access_token")!=-1) {
    int k=outputString.length();
    accessToken = outputString.substring(k+1,outputString.indexOf("&"));
}

Get User Info

url = new URL("https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token="+ accessToken);
System.out.println(url);
URLConnection conn1 = url.openConnection();
outputString = "";
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn1.getInputStream()));
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
    outputString += line;
}
reader.close();
System.out.println(outputString);
FaceBookPojo fbp = new Gson().fromJson(outputString, FaceBookPojo.class);

User Info in JSON Format

{
    "id":"user id here",
    "first_name":"name here",
    "last_name":"given name here", 
    "link":"family name here",
    "user_name":"your name here"  
    "email":"your email here"
}

Pojo class to handle response

public class FaceBookPojo {
    String id;
    String name;
    String first_name;
    String last_name;
    String link;
    String user_name;
    String email;
    
    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }
    public String getFirst_name() {
        return first_name;
    }
    public void setFirst_name(String first_name) {
        this.first_name = first_name;
    }
    public String getLast_name() {
        return last_name;
    }
    public void setLast_name(String last_name) {
        this.last_name = last_name;
    }
    public String getLink() {
        return link;
    }
    public void setLink(String link) {
        this.link = link;
    }
    public String getUser_name() {
        return user_name;
    }
    public void setUser_name(String user_name) {
        this.user_name = user_name;
    }
    public String getEmail() {
        return email;
    }
    public void setEmail(String email) {
        this.email = email;
    }
}
