hybridauth
I’d love to see hybridauth work with TXP.
Simple Social Login Integration: http://hybridauth.sourceforge.net/userguide/Integrating_HybridAuth_Social_Login.html
Sound interesting to anyone here? I’m surprised to not find much talk on the subject in the forums.

Re: hybridauth
Agreed, that would be pretty nice. I wonder if a plugin could do the stuff (login parameters, etc.) that they mention in the user guide. If so, it seems pretty straightforward.

Maybe the few parts of mem_self_register could be used as a basis for getting started.
Some Extra Thinking
Where?
Ideally new user data coming from these various providers would go into the txp_users table. It would just have to be that way so we can continue to use mem, ign, cbe, rvm, etc user plugin tags as well as native tags.
smd_bio
Provisions for smd_bio would be good. We are stuck with RealName at the moment in the txp_users table making it hard to say build a directory of users that can be sorted by last name without the use of smd_bio fields to build that in and have it supplied voluntarily after registration.
Future
I think TXP sites would benefit immensely with a mechanism that allowed potential users/customers to register on a whim rather than through the gauntlet (register -> fire up email machine —> copy garbled password —> go to /textpattern —> type, paste, and go ). Called gauntlet only because it is often seen as too much work by a user who just might dive right in and start contributing to a site/app/community or whatever you call your interactive web-thing.
Stats
I’m not a statistician but I’d wager 7 out of every 10 people sitting in the coffee shop have either a Facebook or Twitter session open in one of the many tabs in their browser.

Re: hybridauth
Very interesting, whaleen (BTW, clicking “Website” under your forum profile image you got a wrong URL, take a look).

Re: hybridauth
hybridauth uses two tables – users, authentications:
users
id, email, password, first_name, last_name, created_at
authentications
id, user_id, provider, provider_uid, email, display_name, first_name, last_name, profile_url, website_url, created_at
And in Textpattern land we need to have our users end up here:
txp_users
user_id, name, pass, RealName, email, privs, last_access, nonce
Maybe
hybridauth could be re-written (txp plugin) so that it’s registrations and authentications puts users into the txp_users table.txtstrap (Textpattern + Twitter Bootstrap + etc…)
