I just started using google API, so i feel like i am walking in the dark.
What i want to do:
It is a very common feature. I want my site to have a Google account Sign-In Button using javascipt, and make sure that a given gmail is valid and maybe extract some basic information from the account.
What do i found:
I have followed the instructions from here:
https://developers.google.com/+/web/signin/javascript-flow .
and copied the code in the last steps of the instructions. I have entered my CLIENT_ID that i got when i followed the instructions in the 'tutorial' but my button just doesn't work. I also searched for some examples and are quite different from the code i found in the google site. I feel that i am missing something (actually i think that i am doing something stupid :) ).
And Here is my code
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1">
<meta name="google-signin-clientid" content="'MY_CLIENT_ID'.apps.googleusercontent.com" />
<meta name="google-signin-scope" content="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login" />
<meta name="google-signin-requestvisibleactions" content="http://schema.org/AddAction" />
<meta name="google-signin-cookiepolicy" content="single_host_origin" />
<script src="https://apis.google.com/js/client:platform.js" async defer></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function signinCallback(authResult) {
if (authResult['status']['signed_in']) {
// Update the app to reflect a signed in user
// Hide the sign-in button now that the user is authorized, for example:
document.getElementById('signinButton').setAttribute('style', 'display: none');
} else {
// Update the app to reflect a signed out user
// Possible error values:
// "user_signed_out" - User is signed-out
// "access_denied" - User denied access to your app
// "immediate_failed" - Could not automatically log in the user
console.log('Sign-in state: ' + authResult['error']);
}
}
function render() {
alert("1");
// Additional params including the callback, the rest of the params will
// come from the page-level configuration.
var additionalParams = {
'callback': signinCallback
};
alert("2");
// Attach a click listener to a button to trigger the flow.
var signinButton = document.getElementById('signinButton');
signinButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
gapi.auth.signIn(additionalParams); // Will use page level configuration
alert("3");
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button id="signinButton">Sign in with Google</button>
</body>
</html>
I have added some alerts, but nothing pops-up and did not used anywhere the 'client secret' password or the JavaScript origins. Also, in the place of 'MY_CLIENT_ID' is actually my client ID.
I don't know if this makes any difference, but my site is not yet on a server. Just working locally (with internet of course!)
Do you know what i got wrong?

Check your console, maybe there are some errors.
Try this example from https://google-developers.appspot.com/+/demos/signin_demo_trigger:
<html>
<head>
<title>Google+ Sign-in button demo: JavaScript flow</title>
<style type="text/css">
html, body { margin: 0; padding:0;}
#signin-button {
padding: 5px;
}
#oauth2-results pre { margin: 0; padding:0; width: 600px;}
.hide { display: none;}
.show { display: block;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
var loginFinished = function(authResult) {
if (authResult) {
console.log(authResult);
var el = document.getElementById('oauth2-results');
var label = '';
toggleDiv('oauth2-results');
if (authResult['status']['signed_in']) {
label = 'User granted access:';
gapi.auth.setToken(authResult);
} else {
label = 'Access denied: ' + authResult['error'];
}
el.innerHTML =
label + '<pre class="prettyprint"><code>' +
// JSON.stringify doesn't work in IE8.
'{<br />' +
' "id_token" : "' + authResult['id_token'] +'",<br />' +
' "access_token" : "' + authResult['access_token'] + '",<br />' +
' "state" : "' + authResult['state'] + '",<br />' +
' "expires_in" : "' + authResult['expires_in'] + '",<br />' +
' "error" : "' + authResult['error'] + '",<br />' +
' "error_description" : "' + authResult['error_description'] + '",<br />' +
' "authUser" : "' + authResult['authuser'] + '",<br />' +
' "status" : {"' + '<br />' +

' "method" : "' + authResult['status']['method'] + '",<br />' +
' "signed_in" : "' + authResult['status']['signed_in'] + '"<br />' +
' }<br />' +
'}</code></pre>';
} else {
document.getElementById('oauth2-results').innerHTML =
'Empty authResult';
}
};
function toggleDiv(id) {
var div = document.getElementById(id);
if (div.getAttribute('class') == 'hide') {
div.setAttribute('class', 'show');
} else {
div.setAttribute('class', 'hide');
}
}
var options = {

function startFlow(){

gapi.auth.signIn(options);
