This tutorial demonstrates how to use oAuth to sign-in with Apple without using any library.We simply use HTTP GET request to their endpoint URL: appleid.apple.com/auth/authorize.
Just to space it up a bit, we are opening Sign-in popup in modal window using window.open but this could be done in the same window. The advantages of open it in modal window are that the user won’t be redirect to different screens and got confused of what’s going on.
This window create two sign-in entities: one is simple A tag that demonstrates how we could start sign-in redirect process by simply redirect browser to authentication service, and the second one is a button, that does the same using form submit.

function parseJwt (token) {

what we just did:
Were, we get id_token from Apple authentication service, that passes this via the request type that we selected (post, fragment, get) decodes, id_token then passes it to the parent window and closes itself.

In this example we have the main app (in this case my blogpost) with a Log-in button (Log in Example, above ), that redirects to the Log-In app, which on the other hand redirects to selected Log-In service (Google, Apple, Facebook, Github) passing app id an all necessary log in data.
After the user grant permissions to share requested data (email, username, real name, etc.) called scope, authentication service is calling back our app service, passing code which our service is using to make HTTP request to the provider and exchange it for JWT (Jason Web Token) containing requested user information.
on Authorized Java Script Origins add the domain from where the WEB app will be served. You could use http://localhost if you like.
on Authorized Redirect URIs add authentication service callback script that Google will call to pass code that could be exchanged for JWT (JSON Web Token) containing user’s information requested.
On the top right corner you will see ClientID and App secret. Write them down since we are going to need them in our authentication service later on.
Create main WEB app and authentication service
We will create main WEB app and authentication service that main app will use. This way same authentication service could be used for different WEB aps.
(Main web app) with Log In button, that redirects to the authentication app.
Let’s get started by creating simple WEB app that will have Log In button, that will simply redirect to our log in service. I already did that in the “Log In Example” above.
index.html
<html>
<head>
<style>
...
</style>
</head>
<body>
<!-- there is no Java script involved at all -->
<div id="log_in_wrapper">
<button class='continue_with_google'>
<a href='https://log-in-service-app/index.html'>
Log In
</a>
</button>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Nothing fancy happens here. We have button that simply redirects to our authentication service, which draws log-in with buttons (with Google, Apple, Facebook, GitHub)
(Authentication app) that shows log-in with buttons (with Google, Apple, Facebook, GitHub)
index.php
<html>
<head>
<style>
...
</style>
</head>
<body>
<!-- there is no Java script involved at all -->
<div id="log_in_wrapper">
<button class='continue_with_google'>
<a href='step-1-auth-google-get-redirect.php'>
<img src="some-google-logo"/>
<span>Continue with Google</span>
</a>
</button>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This is just another Web app that shows log in buttons. We could skip this step and simply have this buttons in the main WEB app.
For simplicity I only added Log In With google.
This button redirects to step-1-auth-google-get-redirect.php the first part of our authentication service.
Creating config file
<?php
// Fill these out with the values you got from Google
$googleClientID = '989056576533-mtef8cl5is5ogjh3np580ireurns7l5k.apps.googleusercontent.com';
$googleClientSecret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
// This is the URL we'll send the user to first to get their authorization
$authorizeURL = 'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth';
// This is Google's OpenID Connect token endpoint
$tokenURL = 'https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token';
// The main application URL. Google will pass JWT token back to the main app
$baseURL = 'https://www.toni-develops.com/external-files/examples/oauth-with-google-with-redirect-step-by-step/step-2-auth-google-redirect.php';
$usserInfoURL = 'https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/userinfo';
// the initial app url
$initialAppURL = 'https://www.toni-develops.com/2023/01/05/using-oauth2-0-to-log-in-with-google-using-redirect/';
After selecting to log-in with desired authentication provider, call backend service to prepare all necessary parameters and call selected authentication service (Google, Apple, Facebook, GitHub)
step-1-auth-google-get-redirect.php
<?php
// add Google app config params
include 'google-config.php';
// Start a session so we have session id to make sure that the redicect is instantiated by this script
$sessionId = '123';
// ####################################################
// STEP 1: Start the login process by sending the user
// to Google's authorization page,
// and passing app params
// ####################################################
// Generate a random hash and store in the session to make sure that
//$_SESSION['state'] = bin2hex(random_bytes(16));
$params = array(
'response_type' => 'code',
'client_id' => $googleClientID,
'redirect_uri' => $baseURL,
'scope' => 'openid email profile',
'state' => $sessionId
);
// Redirect the user to Google's authorization page, passing the above parameters as a GET request
header('Location: ' . $authorizeURL . '?' . http_build_query($params));
This simply redirects to the authentication service. In this case Google, passing these parameters:
response_type – we requesting code in the response which we are going to exchange it for JWT
client_id – is the app id that we registered
redirect_url – is our authentication service url, that Google will call passing code parameter. Here we are going to exchange it for JWT In this example this is step-2-auth-google-redirect.php` script below.
scope – is the requested scope. In our example we just need user name and email: openid email profile
state – this is unique string identifier, that we will check in the callback to make sure that this sign-in workflow is originated by our script
Everything that happens in the above file, could be achieved by simply passing this url in the browser. If you examine the url, it simply passes the same get parameters and query string params.
Next step: Google calls our callback script, passing code which our script exchange for JWT containing user info
step-2-auth-google-redirect.php
<?php
// add Google app config params
include 'google-config.php';
// ####################################################
// Step 2: When Google redirects the user back here,
// there will be a "code" and "state"
// parameter in the query string
// Exchange the auth code for a JWT token,
// and extract requested user data from there
// ####################################################
if(isset($_GET['code'])) {
// Verify the state matches our stored state
if(!$_GET['state'] && $_GET['state'] !== '123') {
die('missing state!');
}
// Exchange the auth code for a token
$ch = curl_init($tokenURL);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query([
'grant_type' => 'authorization_code',
'client_id' => $googleClientID,
'client_secret' => $googleClientSecret,
'redirect_uri' => $baseURL,
'code' => $_GET['code']
]));
$response = curl_exec($ch);
// $data will contain
// access_token,
// expires_in,
// scope,
// token_type,
// id_token - which is JWT token, containing user data according to requested scope from the initial script.
$data = json_decode($response, true);
//echo '<pre>';print_r($data);die("</pre>");
// Note: You'd probably want to use a real JWT library
// but this will do in a pinch. This is only safe to do
// because the ID token came from the https connection
// from Google rather than an untrusted browser redirect
// Split the JWT string into three parts
$jwt = explode('.', $data['id_token']);
// Extract the middle part, base64 decode it, then json_decode it
$IDToken = json_decode(base64_decode($jwt[1]), true);
// This step is required only if we want to get extra info
/*
$ch = curl_init($usserInfoURL);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, [
'Authorization: Bearer '.$data['access_token']
]);
$userInfo = curl_exec($ch);
*/
/*
echo '<h1>Token ID</h1>';
echo '<pre>';print_r($IDToken);echo '</pre>';
echo '<h1>User info</h1>';
echo '<pre>';print_r($userInfo);die('</pre>');
*/
$params = array(
'email' => $IDToken['email'],
'user_name' => $IDToken['name'],
'given_name' => $IDToken['given_name'],
'family_name' => $IDToken['family_name']
);
// Redirect the user to the initial app passing user data as Query String parameters so the front end could use them.
header('Location: ' . $initialAppURL . '?' . http_build_query($params));
}
else {
echo 'Bad response. Missing `code` GET response';
}
line 19-30: we make curl request to Google service passing:
grant_type – authorization_code
client_id – App id
client_secret – App secret
redirect_uri – should be url registered in Authorized redirect URLs
code – this is the code returned by Google as GET parameter
Last step: We are redirecting back to the main app, passing parameters that front end needs (email, user name) as GET or POST params.
Additionally we could save the user into our database, or do some additional work before redirecting to the main app (line 76)
Given two strings text1 and text2, return the length of their longest common subsequence. If there is no common subsequence, return 0.
A subsequence of a string is a new string generated from the original string with some characters (can be none) deleted without changing the relative order of the remaining characters.
For example, "ace" is a subsequence of "abcde".
A common subsequence of two strings is a subsequence that is common to both strings.
Example 1:
Input:
text1 = "abcde", text2 = "ace"
Output:
3
Explanation:
The longest common subsequence is "ace" and its length is 3.
Example 2:
Input:
text1 = "abc", text2 = "abc"
Output:
3
Explanation:
The longest common subsequence is "abc" and its length is 3.
Example 3:
Input:
text1 = "abc", text2 = "def"
Output:
0
Explanation:
There is no such common subsequence, so the result is 0.
Constraints:
1 <= text1.length, text2.length <= 1000
text1 and text2 consist of only lowercase English characters.
This problem was taken from Leetcode Longest Common Subsequence
[tabby title=”Solution”]
Dynamic programming with memoization.
We create a matrix to store (memoize) the response from previous calculations so we won’t re-calculate them again.
We are starting from the first row comparing every character from column 1 with the first character from row one.
There are two cases:
either the character match, then we add 1 and add it with the value from the diagonal to the left of the cell where we are.
Longest Common Substring Step 1
the characters don’t match, then we get the MAX of the value above current cell and the value to the left of the current cell.
Longest Common Substring Step 2
Here again c int the column (first string) matches c in the row (the second string)
so we get the value of last comparison (to the left and up diagonal of the current cell) which is 1 and add 1 again since characters match.
Longest Common Substring 3
and keep going till we reach the end of both strings which is the answer.
Longest Common Substring 4

A linked list of length n is given such that each node contains an additional random pointer, which could point to any node in the list, or null.
Construct a deep copy of the list. The deep copy should consist of exactly nbrand new nodes, where each new node has its value set to the value of its corresponding original node. Both the next and random pointer of the new nodes should point to new nodes in the copied list such that the pointers in the original list and copied list represent the same list state. None of the pointers in the new list should point to nodes in the original list.
For example, if there are two nodes X and Y in the original list, where X.random --> Y, then for the corresponding two nodes x and y in the copied list, x.random --> y.
Return the head of the copied linked list.
The linked list is represented in the input/output as a list of n nodes. Each node is represented as a pair of [val, random_index] where:
val: an integer representing Node.val
random_index: the index of the node (range from 0 to n-1) that the random pointer points to, or null if it does not point to any node.
Your code will only be given the head of the original linked list.
Example 1:
Input:
head = [[7,null],[13,0],[11,4],[10,2],[1,0]]
Output:
[[7,null],[13,0],[11,4],[10,2],[1,0]]
Example 2:
Input:
head = [[1,1],[2,1]]
Output:
[[1,1],[2,1]]
Example 3:
Input:
head = [[3,null],[3,0],[3,null]]
Output:
[[3,null],[3,0],[3,null]]
Constraints:
0 <= n <= 1000
-104 <= Node.val <= 104
Node.random is null or is pointing to some node in the linked list.
