Problem/Motivation

Varbase previously provided social authentication functionality through the Varbase Social Single Sign-On module (varbase_auth).

To align with the new modular recipe-based architecture in Varbase, social authentication should be migrated into a dedicated base recipe: varbase_auth_base.

Proposed resolution

  • Create a new recipe: varbase_auth_base.
  • Migrate functionality from the deprecated Varbase Social Single Sign-On module.
  • Install and configure the following modules:
  • social_api
  • social_auth
  • social_auth_google

The recipe should:

  • Provide default configuration scaffolding for OAuth providers.
  • Support Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, and X-Twitter authentication.
  • Allow seamless single sign-on using existing social accounts.
  • Remain extensible for future providers.

This establishes a clean, modern, and modular authentication foundation for all Varbase-based projects.
