Step 4:

 Add Database Column

Migration

<?php
  
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
   
class AddGoogleIdColumn extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::table('users', function ($table) {
            $table->string('google_id')->nullable();
        });
    }
   
    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        //
    }
}

app/User.php

<?php
  
namespace App;
  
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
   
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;
  
    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'name', 'email', 'password', 'google_id'
    ];
  
    /**
     * The attributes that should be hidden for arrays.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $hidden = [
        'password', 'remember_token',
    ];
   
    /**
     * The attributes that should be cast to native types.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $casts = [
        'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
    ];
}


Step 5: 

Create Routes app/Http/routes.php

Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});
  
Auth::routes();
  
Route::get('/home', 'HomeController@index')->name('home');
Route::get('auth/google', 'Auth\GoogleController@redirectToGoogle');
Route::get('auth/google/callback', 'Auth\GoogleController@handleGoogleCallback');

Step 6:

 Create Controller app/Http/Controllers/Auth/GoogleController.php

<?php
  
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
  
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Socialite;
use Auth;
use Exception;
use App\User;
  
class GoogleController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function redirectToGoogle()
    {
        return Socialite::driver('google')->redirect();
    }
      
    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function handleGoogleCallback()
    {
        try {
    
            $user = Socialite::driver('google')->user();
     
            $finduser = User::where('google_id', $user->id)->first();
     
            if($finduser){
     
                Auth::login($finduser);
    
                return redirect('/home');
     
            }else{
                $newUser = User::create([
                    'name' => $user->name,
                    'email' => $user->email,
                    'google_id'=> $user->id,
                    'password' => encrypt('123456dummy')
                ]);
    
                Auth::login($newUser);
     
                return redirect('/home');
            }
    
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            dd($e->getMessage());
        }
    }
}


Step 7: 

Update Blade File resources/views/auth/login.blade.php

@extends('layouts.app')
  
@section('content')

    <div class="row justify-content-center">
        <div class="col-md-8">
