I am using google oAuth for the Codeigniter application with this composer library "google/apiclient": "^2.10", for the login, and works fine on local environment. But it downloaded all the google services and I don't want to upload all unnecessary libraries to the server. So I removed all by using the following configuration file.

composer.json file



{

"require": {

    "google/apiclient": "^2.10",

    "google/auth": "^1.16"

},

"scripts": {

    "pre-autoload-dump": "Google\\Task\\Composer::cleanup"

},

"extra": {

    "google/apiclient-services": [

        "Drive",

        "YouTube"

    ]

}

}

But then I received an error page on the application while authentication

An uncaught Exception was encountered Type: Error Message: Class "Google_Service_Oauth2" not found

So I added appropriate library "Oauth2" and run the `composer update' command.

{

"require": {

    "google/apiclient": "^2.10",

    "google/auth": "^1.16"

},

"scripts": {

    "pre-autoload-dump": "Google\\Task\\Composer::cleanup"

},

"extra": {

    "google/apiclient-services": [

        "Drive",

        "YouTube",

        "Oauth2"

    ]

}

}

The problem is "Oauth2" library is not adding to the existing project using composer.

Note: I have tried to update without "pre-autoload-dump": "Google\\Task\\Composer::cleanup" line and still it doesn't work.

Is there any way to fix this using a composer file or command. Thank you for the help.

My Answer:
Google provides a wide range of services that can be accessed using PHP. Some of the popular Google services that can be integrated with PHP include:

1. Google Maps API: PHP can be used to integrate Google Maps into web applications, allowing users to display maps, create custom markers, and calculate routes.

2. Google Analytics API: PHP can be used to access and analyze website traffic data from Google Analytics, allowing developers to track user behavior and measure the performance of their websites.

3. Google Drive API: PHP can be used to interact with Google Drive, allowing users to upload, download, and manage files stored in the cloud.

4. Google Calendar API: PHP can be used to access and manage events and calendars in Google Calendar, allowing developers to create, update, and delete events programmatically.

5. Google Cloud Vision API: PHP can be used to integrate Google's image recognition technology into applications, allowing developers to analyze and classify images using machine learning algorithms.

Overall, PHP can be used to interact with various Google services and APIs, enabling developers to create powerful and feature-rich applications that leverage the capabilities of Google's services.
