How to make google, facebook authentication in django with flutter - django

Question

I am using Flutter for a mobile app and django for backend API. I want user to be able to login with accounts from Facebook, Google etc. How Can I implement this?
Also I saw that dj-rest-auth provides requests for Social Media Authentication. Should I use something like this?

There is flutter_facebook_login package. You can use it like this:
import 'package:flutter_facebook_login/flutter_facebook_login.dart';
final facebookLogin = FacebookLogin();
final result = await facebookLogin.logInWithReadPermissions(['email']);
switch (result.status) {
case FacebookLoginStatus.loggedIn:
_sendTokenToServer(result.accessToken.token);
_showLoggedInUI();
break;
case FacebookLoginStatus.cancelledByUser:
_showCancelledMessage();
break;
case FacebookLoginStatus.error:
_showErrorOnUI(result.errorMessage);
break;
}
And google_sign_in package for the other part of your question. Here is a complete example:
