React Google Contacts

A Google Button to import user's gmail contacts

Install

npm install react-google-contacts

How to use

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import GoogleContacts from 'react-google-contacts';

const responseCallback = (response) => {
  console.log(response);
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <GoogleContacts
    clientId="YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
    apiKey="YOUR_API_KEY"
    buttonText="Import"
    onSuccess={responseCallback}
    onFailure={responseCallback}
  />,

Google button without styling or custom button

ReactDOM.render(
  <GoogleContacts
    clientId="YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
    apiKey="YOUR_API_KEY"
    render={renderProps => (
      <button onClick={renderProps.onClick}>This is my custom Google button</button>
    )}
    buttonText="Import"
    onSuccess={responseCallback}
    onFailure={responseCallback}
  />,
  document.getElementById('googleButton')
);

onSuccess callback

Callback will return an array of objects (contacts).

If you use the hostedDomain param, make sure to validate the id_token (a JSON web token) returned by Google on your backend server:

1. In the responseGoogle(response) {...} callback function, you should get back a standard JWT located at response.hg.id_token
2. Send this token to your server (preferably as an Authorization header)
3. Have your server decode the id_token by using a common JWT library such as jwt-simple or by sending a GET request to https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/tokeninfo?id_token=YOUR_TOKEN_HERE
4. The returned decoded token should have an hd key equal to the hosted domain you'd like to restrict to.
