Contao GitHub Login
===================

[](#contao-github-login)

This extension adds a GitHub login button to Contao, both in the frontend and in the backend. Before/after installation you have to register a GitHub App and save the `client_id` and `client_secret` in your .env file. To activate or deactivate the application, the configuration file *config.yaml* must be edited under `config/config.yaml`.

**Frontend Module**

To display the login button in the frontend, create a member login module and select the *mod\_login\_github* template.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

`composer require markocupic/contao-github-login`
