Social login configuration for edx as plugin in tutor

Tutor
4

For whoever is still working to add OAuth2 to Tutor.

Here is our plugin:

name: third-party-auth
version: 1.0.0
patches:
  common-env-features: |
    "ENABLE_THIRD_PARTY_AUTH": true
  openedx-auth: |
    "SOCIAL_AUTH_OAUTH_SECRETS": {"google-oauth2": "client-secret-from-google"}
  lms-env: |
    "THIRD_PARTY_AUTH_BACKENDS": ["social_core.backends.google.GoogleOAuth2"]

Then, go to “Provider Configuration (OAuth)” in your Django admin panel:

  • Home › Third-party authentication › Provider Configuration (OAuth)
  • URL: admin/third_party_auth/oauth2providerconfig/

Click “ADD PROVIDER CONFIGURATION (OAUTH)” to add your provider.

We use these settings, but your might be slightly different.

  1. Icon class: fa-google
  2. Skip registration form
  3. Skip email verification
  4. Send welcome email
  5. Visible
  6. Backend name: google-oauth2
  7. Client ID: Enter client ID from the OAuth2 provider
  8. Client Secret: (leave blank! The value is in the plugin.)

Use the “Enabled” checkbox at the top of the page to enable or disable the OAuth2 login button.

That’s it!
