How to run Facebook authentication on localhost in Django?

I have read all discussion about this matter on StackOverFlow but all of them seem outdated.

Does anyone know how to run facebook authentication on localhost in Django by social-auth-app-django ? I have spent probably a day or so trying to solve it but nothing works.

Solution

  • You have to run localhost as a ssl server.

    pip install django-sslserver

    Add the application to your INSTALLED_APPS:

    INSTALLED_APPS = (...
"sslserver",
...
)

    And run:

    python manage.py runsslserver
