How to set up Google Sign In with Grails Spring Security Core?

I am trying to set up authentication to my Grails app with Google+ Sign In. Google deprecated their OpenID and they no longer allow new apps to authenticate that way.

I tried using the http://grails.org/plugin/spring-security-oauth2-provider .

Once I've installed it, I have no clue what to do to make it actually authenticate. Can anyone fill in the missing blanks here? I've read the documentation, https://adaptivecomputing.github.io/grails-spring-security-oauth2-provider/docs/guide/index.html , but it deals mainly with configuration options and is not a how-to guide.

If anyone has either a sample project that's working and I can see the source, or can point me to the right reading material it would be great.

Thanks in advance,

  • Turns out that there are plugins that do this out of the box. They are just not referenced in the Spring Security Core page (unlike all other extensions).
