Use @nativescript/google-signin ​

Sign in ​

To sign in a user with GoogleSignIn, follow the steps below.

1. Register and add the GoogleSignInButton to your markup to be able to initiate GoogleSigIn.

• Core

<Page xmlns:ui="@nativescript/google-signin">
	<ui:GoogleSigninButton tap="handleSignIn" colorScheme='auto' colorStyle='standard'/>
</Page>

• Angular

Register the button as follows:

import { registerElement } from '@nativescript/angular'
registerElement(
  'GoogleSignInButton',
  () => require('@nativescript/google-signin').GoogleSignInButton
)

Next, add it to your html file setting the desired option for colorScheme and colorStyle as:

<GoogleSignInButton colorScheme='auto' colorStyle='standard' (tap)="yourGoogleSigninFunction()"></GoogleSignInButton>

Vue ​

To register the button, add the following code to the main.ts file.

registerElement(
  'GoogleSignInButton',
  () => require('@nativescript/google-signin').GoogleSignInButton
)

Then use it in a .vue file as follows:

<GoogleSignInButton colorScheme='auto' colorStyle='standard' @tap="yourGoogleSigninFunction"></GoogleSignInButton>

2. Call the signIn() method on GoogleSignInButton tap

Before you call the signIn() or the signInSilently() method to sign in the user, call configure() to initialize Firebase. If you do want to set any configuration options, you can pass an empty object {} as a parameter to configure.

import { GoogleSignin } from '@nativescript/google-signin'

try {
  await GoogleSignin.configure({})
  const user = await GoogleSignin.signIn()
} catch (e) {}

Styling the GoogleSignInButton ​

GoogleSignInButton is a View instance so you can use the View class styling properties. Additionally, the plugin offers the colorScheme and colorStyle properties.
