Adding log in with google feature

[MuthuvelA]

Overview: The current authentication system in the JOBLANE project requires users to sign up using traditional email/password methods. To enhance user convenience and broaden accessibility, it would be beneficial to implement "Login with Google" authentication, allowing users to log in with their Google accounts.

Proposed Solution: Integrate Google OAuth 2.0 authentication into the JOBLANE project to enable "Login with Google" functionality. This will involve setting up the necessary authentication routes, configuring Passport.js with the Google OAuth strategy, and handling user authentication and session management.

Steps to Implement:

Setup Google Developer Console:

• Create a new project in the Google Developer Console.
• Enable the Google Sign-In API for the project.
• Obtain OAuth 2.0 credentials (client ID and client secret).

Install Required Packages: Utilize npm or yarn to install necessary packages such as passport, passport-google-oauth20, and express-session. Configure Passport.js:

Initialize Passport.js in the application. Configure Passport to use the Google OAuth 2.0 authentication strategy with the obtained client ID, client secret, and callback URL.

Set Up Authentication Routes:

Define routes for initiating the Google OAuth flow and handling the callback from Google. Implement logic to authenticate users based on Google's response and manage user sessions.
