使用{Google / Facebook / etc}登录进行PHP Symfony身份验证/授权

Question

So I am planning to offer authentication using Google and will not have any credentials or account specific information on my side other than a user id and a role. Does anyone know how to go about making a user appear authenticated to symfony with just the id? I've seen custom user providers but they require password, salt, hashing algorithms and what not which I don't have/need.

For implementing Google/Facebook sign in, HWIOAuth Bundle is a great choice. It supports more than 20 service providers. The entire process of implementing the Facebook and Google authentication is bit too long to be posted here.
