BIMSConnect
===========

[](#bimsconnect)

A laravel package extending [Laravel Socialite](https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/socialite) to provide authentication functionality specific to **BIMS** - *Beneficiary Identity Management Service* by TETFund. Visit [bims.tetfund.gov.ng](https://bims.tetfund.gov.ng) to know more.

Installation 💻
--------------

[](#installation-)

Install via composer

```
composer require teqbylyte/bims-connect

```

Configuration ⚙️
----------------

[](#configuration-️)

Your BIMS client credentials should be placed in your `config/services.php` as given below:

```
'bims' => [
    'client_id' => env('BIMS_CLIENT_ID'),
    'client_secret' => env('BIMS_CLIENT_SECRET'),
    'redirect' => 'https://yoursite.com/callback-url',
],
```

Usage ✨
-------

[](#usage-)

To initiate a connection with your BIMS service, invoke the init method provided by the package, which is a direct & easy replacement for how one would use Laravel Socialite:

```
use Teqbylyte\BimsConnect\BimsConnect;

// Instead of Socialite::driver('bims'), use:
BimsConnect::init()

// Illustration 1:
Route::get('/oauth/redirect', function () {
    return BimsConnect::init()->redirect();
});

// Illustration 2:
Route::get('/oauth/callback', function () {
    $user = BimsConnect::init()->user();

    // $user->getEmail()
});
```
