Authentications
Authentications are tokens bound to a user or the application. When accessing the auth
route an authentication is created and updated each time the user logs in with that provider.
You can fetch authentications off a UserInterface
instance using the authentication
method:
$authentication = $user->authentication($provider);
You can also fetch the application authentication directly off a ProviderExtension
instance.
$authentication = $addons->get('facebook_provider')->authentication();
Using the authentication you can then access all the tokens and expiration:
$authentication->getAccessToken();
$authentication->getRefreshToken();
$authentication->getExpiresAt();
$authentication->getSecret(); // For OAuth1
The provider()
method will return the authenticated provider extension. You can access the provider user this way:
$authentication->provider()->user()->name
user().authentication('facebook').provider.user.name
