> VK OAuth2 strategy for Überauth.

## Requirements

We support `elixir` versions `1.4` and above.

## Installation

1. Setup your application at [VK Developers](https://vk.com/dev).

2. Add `:ueberauth_vk` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
# installation via hex:
[{:ueberauth_vk, "~> 0.3"}]
# if you want to use github:
# [{:ueberauth_vk, github: "sobolevn/ueberauth_vk"}]
end
```

3. Add the strategy to your applications:

```elixir
def application do
[applications: [:ueberauth_vk]]
end
```

4. Add VK to your Überauth configuration:

```elixir
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, []}
]
```

5. Update your provider configuration:

```elixir
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.VK.OAuth,
client_id: System.get_env("VK_CLIENT_ID"),
client_secret: System.get_env("VK_CLIENT_SECRET")
```

6. Include the Überauth plug in your controller:

```elixir
defmodule MyApp.AuthController do
use MyApp.Web, :controller
plug Ueberauth
...
end
```

7. Create the request and callback routes if you haven't already:

```elixir
scope "/auth", MyApp do
pipe_through :browser

get "/:provider", AuthController, :request
get "/:provider/callback", AuthController, :callback
end
```

8. You controller needs to implement callbacks to deal with `Ueberauth.Auth` and `Ueberauth.Failure` responses.

For an example implementation see the [Überauth Example](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_example) application.

## Customizing

You can customize [multiple fields](https://vk.com/dev/auth_sites), such as `default_scope`, `default_display`, `default_state`, `profile_fields`, and `uid_field`.

### Scope

By default the requested scope is `"public_profile"`. Scope can be configured either explicitly as a `scope` query value on the request path or in your configuration:

```elixir
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [default_scope: "friends,video,offline"]}
]
```

### Profile Fields

You can also provide custom fields for user profile:

```elixir
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [profile_fields: "photo_200,location,online"]}
]
```

See [VK API Method Reference > User](https://vk.com/dev/users.get) for full list of fields.

### State

You can also set the custom field called [`state`](https://github.com/sobolevn/ueberauth_vk/pull/20). It is used to prevent "man in the middle" attacks.

```elixir
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [default_state: "secret-state-value"]}
]
```

This state will be passed to you in the callback as `/auth/vk?state=` and will be available in the success struct.

### UID Field

You can use alternate fields to identify users. For example, you can use `email`.

```elixir
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
providers: [
vk: {Ueberauth.Strategy.VK, [
default_scope: "email",
uid_field: :email
]}
]
```
