README

This is a cTrader Socialite provider for Laravel Socialite.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require serenity-technologies/socialite-ctrader

Configuration

Add the configuration to your config/services.php file:

'ctrader' => [
    'client_id' => env('CTRADER_CLIENT_ID'),
    'client_secret' => env('CTRADER_CLIENT_SECRET'),
    'redirect' => env('CTRADER_REDIRECT_URI'),
],

Registration

You will need to register the provider using the SocialiteExtendSocialite event. Add the listener to your app/Providers/EventServiceProvider.php:

protected $listen = [
    \SocialiteProviders\Manager\SocialiteWasCalled::class => [
        \SocialiteProviders\Ctrader\CtraderExtendSocialite::class.'@handle',
    ],
];

Usage

You can now use the provider like any other Socialite provider:

use Laravel\Socialite\Facades\Socialite;

// Redirect to cTrader for authorization
return Socialite::driver('ctrader')->redirect();

// Receive the callback from cTrader
$user = Socialite::driver('ctrader')->user();

// Access user details
$userId = $user->getId();
$email = $user->getEmail(); // Generated as {userId}@ctrader.com
$token = $user->token;

Scopes

By default, the provider uses the accounts scope. You can change this or add more scopes:

return Socialite::driver('ctrader')
    ->scopes(['trading'])
    ->redirect();

User Profile Retrieval

Unlike many other Socialite providers, cTrader does not provide a standard REST endpoint for user profile information. This provider automatically handles this by:

1. Exchanging the authorization code for an access token via REST.
2. Connecting to the cTrader Open API gateway via an SSL TCP socket.
3. Sending a ProtoOAGetCtidProfileByTokenReq message to retrieve the unique cTrader User ID.
4. Mapping this ID to the Socialite User object and generating a {userId}@ctrader.com email address.
