How do I use OpenID and implement it in my Laravel app?

Question

I'm learning Laravel slowly and am trying to figure out how to implement OpenID for my app so I can allow users to sign in either using Google/Facebook/Twitter or the site's own registration system.

I (personally) find the documentation for OpenID is frustratingly lacking (even the official "getting started" just points to a bunch of plugins and leaves it at that). I am really struggling to figure it out. This is my first time even trying to tango with OpenID and I want to do this properly.

If anyone could either provide me with some detailed guide or help me along with this, I would really appreciate it.

https://github.com/phpmycoder/lightopenid - This is a fork of an OpenId library that I use. It allows you to implement OpenID by only knowing the endpoint URL of the service (Google Federated Login is included). — Bailey Parker, Jul 05 '14 at 03:09
