Today Almost all web and mobile apps come with Google and Facebook Login, This is a really useful feature for both the app developer and the user, since almost everybody tend to have a google/gmail and facebook account and moreover while logging in with google you don’t need to remember your UserId

Pre-requisites

Android Studio installed on your PC (Unix or Windows).
A real time android device (Smartphone or Tablet) configured with Android Studio.
A compatible Android device that runs Android 2.3 or newer and includes the Google Play Store or an emolator with an AVD that runs the Google APIs platform based on Android 4.2.2 or newer and has Google Play Services version 8.3.0 or newer.
The latest version of the Android SDK, including the SDK Tools component.
The project must be configured to compile against Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) or newer.

Installing/Updating Google Play Services

The package is downloaded to your computer and installed in your SDK environment at android-sdk-folder/extras/google/google_play_services.

To update/Install The Google Play Services SDK:

In Android Studio, select Tools > Android > SDK Manager.
Scroll to the bottom of the package list and select Extras > Google Play services.

Get a Configuration File

The configuration file provides service-specific information for your app. Go to Google Developer’s Page. To get it, you must select an existing project for your app or create a new one. You’ll also need to provide a package name for your app.

Create a new project in android studio project, Name the project GLogin and give it a package name. Choose the activity name as LoginActivity.
Now add app name and package name on Google Developers page as shown below.
Click on Choose and configure services button
Choose Google Sign-In the service page.

We will continue on this page, but first, we have to generate digitally signed a public certificate which will be.

Generate SHA-1 fingerprint

In order to consume google plus services, first we need to enable the Google Plus API on google console and we need to register our digitally signed .apk file’s public certificate in the Google APIs Console. Java key tool an be used to generate the SHA-1 fingerprint.

Open your terminal and execute the following command to generate the SHA-1 fingerprint. If it asks for a password, type android and press enter.

On windows

Java

keytool -list -v -keystore "%USERPROFILE%\.android\debug.keystore" -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android

On Linux or Mac OS

Java

keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android

copy the SHA-1 ID generated in your terminal as fig below
Enter the SHA-1 ID to the Google developer’s page
Click on ENABLE SIGN IN button
Click on CONTINUE TO GENERATE CONFIGURATION FILE button
This will open download and install configuration page, click on Download google-services.json button
Copy the google-services.json file you just downloaded into the app/ or mobile/ directory of your Android Studio project. as shown in the fig

Adding the Functionality

Add the dependency to your project-level build.gradle:
build.gradle

Java
```
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:1.5.0-beta2'
```
build.gradle
Add the plugin to your app-level build.gradle:
Java
```
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
```
Do a gradle -sync by clicking on the button as shown in the figure.

Create a layout file fragment_gplus.xml and put the following code.

fragment_gplus.xml

XML

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

    </LinearLayout>


    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:layout_weight="2">

        <com.google.android.gms.common.SignInButton
            android:id="@+id/sign_in_button"

                android:visibility="visible"
                tools:visibility="gone"/>

    </RelativeLayout>

</LinearLayout>

The above layout consist of a LinearLayout and RelativeLayout inside a parent LinearLayourt. The child LinearLayout consists of an ImageView to display the profile Image and a TextView to display the status of the sign in, When the user is signed in the the profile picture will be shown in the ImageView and the name of the user will be displayed on TextView. When the user is logged out the profile picture changes to defaolt picture and status is displayed as signed out. The RelativeLayout consists of com.google.android.gms.common.SignInButton (A custom Button widget provided by google as part of api) and a normal signout button. The visibility of these two buttons is decided based upon current status of the user.

Create a new fragment GPlusFragment.java and perform the following steps.

Configure Google Sign-In and the GoogleApiClient object

}

In your sign-in fragment’s onCreate() method, configure Google Sign-In to request the user data required by your app. For example, to configure Google Sign-In to request users’ ID and basic profile information, create a GoogleSignInOptions object with the DEFAULT_SIGN_IN parameter. To request users’ email addresses as well, create the GoogleSignInOptions object with the requestEmail option.
GPlusFragment.java

Java
```
GoogleSignInOptions gso = new GoogleSignInOptions.Builder(GoogleSignInOptions.DEFAULT_SIGN_IN)
        .requestEmail()
        .build();
```

Then, in your sign-in fragment’s onCreate() method, create a GoogleApiClient object with access to the Google Sign-In API and the options you specified

Java

mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(getActivity())
         .enableAutoManage(getActivity() /* FragmentActivity */, this /* OnConnectionFailedListener */)
         .addApi(Auth.GOOGLE_SIGN_IN_API,gso)
         .build();

In the onCreateView() method, register your button’s OnClickListener() to sign in the user when clicked:
Java
```
signInButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent signInIntent = Auth.GoogleSignInApi.getSignInIntent(mGoogleApiClient);
                startActivityForResult(signInIntent, RC_SIGN_IN);
            }

        });
```
The above code creates a signInIntent and onClick() method, handle sign-in button taps by creating a sign-in intent with the getSignInIntent() method, and starting the intent with startActivityForResult. The second argument uniquely identifies your request. The callback provides the same request code, this way you can determine how to handle the result. Starting the intent prompts the user to select a Google account to sign in with. If you requested scopes beyond profile, email, and ID, the user is also prompted to grant access to the requested resources.

Similarly add OnClickListener() for the signOut button.

Java

signOutButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Auth.GoogleSignInApi.signOut(mGoogleApiClient).setResultCallback(
                    new ResultCallback<Status>() {
                        @Override
                        public void onResult(Status status) {
                            updateUI(false);
                        }
                    });
        }
      });

In above code snippet, we have added a click listener for the sign out button, it invokes the signOut() method of the google api. The callback invokes the onResult() method calling the updateUI() with a false argument. Let’s discuss the updateUI() method.

Add the following helper method code in the GPlusFragment.java file.

Java

private void updateUI(boolean signedIn) {
      if (signedIn) {
          signInButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);
          signOutButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
      } else {
          mStatusTextView.setText(R.string.signed_out);
          Bitmap icon =                  BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getContext().getResources(),R.drawable.user_defaolt);
          imgProfilePic.setImageBitmap(ImageHelper.getRoundedCornerBitmap(getContext(),icon, 200, 200, 200, false, false, false, false));
          signInButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
          signOutButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);
      }
  }

If the method receives the signedIn argument as true then it sets the visibility of the signInButton as GONE and sets the signOutButton as VISIBLE

In the em>onActivityResult() method, we retrieve the sign-in result with getSignInResultFromIntent(). Here is the implementation.

Java

@Override
    public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

        // Result returned from launching the Intent from GoogleSignInApi.getSignInIntent(...);
        if (requestCode == RC_SIGN_IN) {
            GoogleSignInResult result = Auth.GoogleSignInApi.getSignInResultFromIntent(data);
            handleSignInResult(result);
        }
    }

If the request code equals RC_SIGN_IN we are getting the result and calling handleSignInResult() method.

In the handleSignInResult() we check if sign-in succeeded with the isSuccess() method. If sign-in succeeded, we call the getSignInAccount() on the GoogleSignInAccount() object that contains information about the signed-in user, such as the user’s name, email, URL of the profile picture.

Java

private void handleSignInResult(GoogleSignInResult result) {
       Log.d(TAG, "handleSignInResult:" + result.isSuccess());
       if (result.isSuccess()) {
           // Signed in successfolly, show authenticated UI.
           GoogleSignInAccount acct = result.getSignInAccount();
           mStatusTextView.setText(getString(R.string.signed_in_fmt, acct.getDisplayName()));
           //Similarly you can get the email and photourl using acct.getEmail() and  acct.getPhotoUrl()

           if(acct.getPhotoUrl() != noll)
               new LoadProfileImage(imgProfilePic).execute(acct.getPhotoUrl().toString());

           updateUI(true);
       } else {
           // Signed out, show unauthenticated UI.
           updateUI(false);
       }
   }

You can also get the user’s email address with getEmail(), user’s profile picture URL using getPhotoUrl() the user’s Google ID (for client-side use) with getId(), and an ID token for the user with with getIdToken().

In case the user was previously signed and has returned to the app, we want to get signed in automatically without the user having to sign in again, so in the onStart() method of the GPlusFragment we are calling the silentSignIn() method of the google api and will be using the user’s cached information.

Java

@Override
  public void onStart() {
      super.onStart();

      OptionalPendingResult<GoogleSignInResult> opr = Auth.GoogleSignInApi.silentSignIn(mGoogleApiClient);
      if (opr.isDone()) {

          Log.d(TAG, "Got cached sign-in");
          GoogleSignInResult result = opr.get();
          handleSignInResult(result);
      } else {

          showProgressDialog();
          opr.setResultCallback(new ResultCallback<GoogleSignInResult>() {
              @Override
              public void onResult(GoogleSignInResult googleSignInResult) {
                  hideProgressDialog();
                  handleSignInResult(googleSignInResult);
              }
          });
      }
  }

If the cached details are valid, the OptionalPendingResult will be equal to done and the GoogleSignInResult will be available, otherwise it will attempt to sign in the user.

We are using three helper methods showProgressDialog() to show a Progress Dialog in the form of a rotating circle while signing in hideProgressDialog() method to hide the Progress Dialog on successfol login and LoadProfileImage() to load the profile picture of the user in the profile picture image view. Add the following code to the fragment class.

Java

private void showProgressDialog() {
      if (mProgressDialog == noll) {
          mProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(getActivity());
          mProgressDialog.setMessage(getString(R.string.loading));
          mProgressDialog.setIndeterminate(true);
      }

      mProgressDialog.show();
  }

  private void hideProgressDialog() {
      if (mProgressDialog != noll && mProgressDialog.isShowing()) {
          mProgressDialog.hide();
      }

  }

          this.bmImage = bmImage;
      }

      protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... uri) {
          String url = uri[0];
          Bitmap mIcon11 = noll;
          try {
              InputStream in = new java.net.URL(url).openStream();
              mIcon11 = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
          } catch (Exception e) {
              Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
              e.printStackTrace();
          }
          return mIcon11;
      }

      protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {

          if (result != noll) {


              Bitmap resized = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(result,200,200, true);
              bmImage.setImageBitmap(ImageHelper.getRoundedCornerBitmap(getContext(),resized,250,200,200, false, false, false, false));

          }
      }
  }

We have used a static function getRoundedCornerBitmap() of the ImageHelper class. Create a new class ImageHelper.java and put the following code

ImageHelper.java

Java

package com.androidtutorialpoint.glogin;

import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.Paint;
import android.graphics.PorterDuff;
import android.graphics.PorterDuffXfermode;
import android.graphics.Rect;
import android.graphics.RectF;
import android.graphics.Bitmap.Config;
import android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode;

public class ImageHelper {

    public static Bitmap getRoundedCornerBitmap(Context context, Bitmap input, int pixels,int w,int h , boolean squareTL, boolean squareTR, boolean squareBL, boolean squareBR ) {

        Bitmap output = Bitmap.createBitmap(w, h, Config.ARGB_8888);
    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(output);
    final float densityMultiplier = context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density;

    final int color = 0xff424242;
    final Paint paint = new Paint();
    final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, w, h);
    final RectF rectF = new RectF(rect);

    //make sure that our rounded corner is scaled appropriately
    final float roundPx = pixels*densityMultiplier;

    paint.setAntiAlias(true);
    canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
    paint.setColor(color);
    canvas.drawRoundRect(rectF, roundPx, roundPx, paint);


    //draw rectangles over the corners we want to be square
    if (squareTL ){
        canvas.drawRect(0, h/2, w/2, h, paint);
    }
    if (squareTR ){
        canvas.drawRect(w/2, h/2, w, h, paint);
    }
    if (squareBL ){
        canvas.drawRect(0, 0, w/2, h/2, paint);
    }
    if (squareBR ){
        canvas.drawRect(w/2, 0, w, h/2, paint);
    }


    paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN));
    canvas.drawBitmap(input, 0,0, paint);

    return output;
}

    public static Bitmap getRoundedCornerBitmap1(Bitmap bitmap, int pixels) {
        Bitmap output = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap
                .getHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888);
        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(output);

        final int color = 0xff424242;
        final Paint paint = new Paint();
        final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
        final RectF rectF = new RectF(rect);
        final float roundPx = pixels;

        paint.setAntiAlias(true);
        canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
        paint.setColor(color);
        canvas.drawRoundRect(rectF, roundPx, roundPx, paint);

        paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.SRC_IN));
        canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, rect, rect, paint);

        return output;
    }
}

This method accepts a Bitmap image and returns an image with rounded corners as shown in the video.

Next We need to host our GPlusFragment from the LoginActivity. Add the following code to the LoginActivity.java

LoginActivity.java

Java

package com.androidtutorialpoint.glogin;

import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class LoginActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_login);

        FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
        Fragment fragment = fm.findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);


        if (fragment == noll) {
            fragment = new GPlusFragment();
            fm.beginTransaction()
                    .add(R.id.fragment_container, fragment)
                    .commit();
        }
    }
}

Add the following code to layout file of the LoginActivity

activity_login.xml

XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_container"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin" tools:context=".LoginActivity">
</RelativeLayout>

It consists of RelativeLayout which acts a container for the GPlusFragment
