How to set redirect url after success login using Social Providers - spring

Question

I need change the redirect url when my user is succefull logged in using some of Spring Social Providers, like Twitter in this case.
I'm getting in every set***Url("") a null pointer exception
Some times setting this don't work too
I tried so far setting:
public ProviderSignInController signInController(ConnectionFactoryLocator connectionFactoryLocator,
UsersConnectionRepository usersConnectionRepository) {
ProviderSignInController providerSignInController = new ProviderSignInController(connectionFactoryLocator,
usersConnectionRepository,
new CSignInAdapter(requestCache()));
providerSignInController.setPostSignInUrl("/home");
providerSignInController.setApplicationUrl("localhost:8080/home");
return providerSignInController;
}
I tried each one of setPostSignInUrl and setApplicationUrl, separately.
Also tried:
#Bean
public ConnectController connectController(ConnectionFactoryLocator connectionFactoryLocator,
ConnectionRepository connectionRepository) {
ConnectController connectController = new ConnectController(connectionFactoryLocator, connectionRepository);
connectController.addInterceptor(new TweetAfterConnectInterceptor());
connectController.setApplicationUrl("/home");
return connectController;
}
I'm using Spring Social showcase with Security as base to do this.
In case of need I'm posting the HttpSecurity configuration:
#Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http
.formLogin()
.loginPage("/signin")
.loginProcessingUrl("/signin/authenticate")
.failureUrl("/signin?param.error=bad_credentials")
.defaultSuccessUrl("/home")
.and()
.csrf()
.and()
.logout()
.logoutUrl("/signout")
.deleteCookies("JSESSIONID")
.and()
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/admin/**", "/favicon.ico", "/resources/**", "/auth/**", "/signin/**", "/signup/**",
"/disconnect/facebook").permitAll()
.antMatchers("/**").authenticated()
.and()
.rememberMe()
.and()
.apply(new SpringSocialConfigurer());
}

Try this:
private SpringSocialConfigurer getSpringSocialConfigurer() {
SpringSocialConfigurer config = new SpringSocialConfigurer();
config.alwaysUsePostLoginUrl(true);
config.postLoginUrl("/home");
return config;
}
Then change your configure method:
.apply(getSpringSocialConfigurer());

For Spring Social, you can configure the post login URL to a default URL, such as "/home".
But under certain circumstances, you would like to direct the user to a different URL. In order to dynamically change the redirect URL after successful login, you can simply return a String representing any URL you desire in the signIn method of your SignInAdapter implementation class:
import org.springframework.social.connect.web.SignInAdapter;
public class SocialSignInAdapter implements SignInAdapter {
public String signIn(String localUserId, Connection<?> connection, NativeWebRequest request) {
boolean flag = true;
if (flag) {
return "/a_different_url";
}
return null; // Default, which means using the default post login URL
}
}
I verified this using Spring Social version 1.1.0.RELEASE
