meteor-accounts-linkedin

A meteor package for LinkedIn's login service.

Important

BREAKING CHANGE LinkedIn -> Linkedin inside code from v5.0.0

v4.0.0 works with Meteor@1.6.1 & up

From March 1, 2019 Linkedin will be using only V2 API Docs

Install

meteor add pauli:accounts-linkedin

Usage

Core principles are the same as native Meteor external services login, all available params are in meteor documentation. So if you using {{> loginButtons}}, it will just appear in the selection.

For custom usage, available functions in Client:

login: ``Meteor.loginWithLinkedin([options], [callback])``
credential request:``Meteor.requestCredential([options], [callback])``

If you are not using any other external login service, you need to metoer add service-configuration, otherwise just config it in server folder:

ServiceConfiguration.configurations.upsert(
  { service: 'linkedin' },
  {
    $set: {
      clientId: "XXXXXXX", // Client ID
      secret: "XXXXXXX" // Client Secret
    }
  }
);

As basic Linkedin permission now only allows r_emailaddress and r_liteprofile, this package by default will return this fields to user.profile

    linkedinId, // Specific user id for your application only
    firstName:{
      localized:{
         en_US:'Tina'
      },
      preferredLocale:{
         country:'US',
         language:'en'
      }
    },
    lastName:{
      localized:{
         en_US:'Belcher'
      },
      preferredLocale:{
         country:'US',
         language:'en'
      }
    },
    profilePicture: {
      displayImage, // URN media handle
      identifiersUrl, // Array of links to all available identifiers
    },
    email, // First email from received emails during authentication
    emails, // Array of all received emails during authentication

If you want during login process to ask for more fields, you need to pass requestPermissions to options. To change popup options:

popupOptions = { width: XXX, height: XXX }
