Install the package

Create the strategy instance

import { GoogleStrategy } from "remix-auth-google";
let googleStrategy = new GoogleStrategy(
{
clientID: "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
clientSecret: "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
callbackURL: "https://example.com/auth/google/callback",
},
async ({ accessToken, refreshToken, extraParams, profile }) => {
// Get the user data from your DB or API using the tokens and profile
return User.findOrCreate({ email: profile.emails[0].value });
}
);
authenticator.use(googleStrategy);
