How to use shib-http-client for facebook/google login with shibboleth idp

[ash-1202]

Can you provide with inputs on how the shib-http-client could be used to do a facebook/google login from the mobile client i.e. Android or iOS

No idea, sorry. Do they even use Shibboleth? I thought they use OpenID. I would expect there should be plenty of examples on how to log in to Google/Facebook programmatically, no?

Thanks for the inputs reckart. Yes i am aware of getting the OAuth token from facebook/google through their fb/google sdk exposed for mobile client. The place we are stuck is how to generate the SAML token from the sp once the OAuth token is shared to SP using the shibboleth idp.

Hi reckart just a query. Can we integrate SAML with shibboleth for restful api services. Below is the flow chart that we want to achieve.

Do you think this is possible via ECP?

shib-http-client was implemented in order to access a REST service that was behind a shibboleth authentication. For me that worked. Unfortunately, I am not familiar enough with SAML to tell you if/how that will generalize. The idea of providing the code to the public was that others could try out and would eventually come to a solution for themselves without having to start at zero. So am afraid I cannot help you any really further than what the code is providing to you.
