Hey guys,

I have tested Shawn's patch on my application and it works great,  
please let me know when its checked in so I can update the example on  
my blog to use that approach
as its much cleaner than the way I was doing things.

One thing you may want to add to the documentation to be clear is that  
in order to work you must set your facebook callback url in facebook

to include the namespace with a trailing slash, a precise example:

Namespace sandbox:

facebook callback url - http://yoururl:yourport/namespace/
ENV['FACEBOOKER_SANDBOX_NAMESPACE'] = '/namespace'

thanks
Joel

My code has the old ENV FACEBOOKER_CALLBACK_PATH. I'll update the code  
in an hour.

Sorry, I won't be able to send in the right diff just yet.  If you want to check in my code, just change each instance of ENV['FACEBOOKER_CALLBACK_PATH'] to ENV['FACEBOOKER_SANDBOX_NAMESPACE'].

Thanks,
Shawn

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] proposed patch for fb_request_form_submit
Message-ID: <C18AA32B-52ED-466E-B678-6E69DF172044@yahoo.com>

Hi, according to the Facebook docs, you can add a uid to the  
fb_request_form_submit button which will pre select the user for the  
form.

So you can do:

<fb:request-form action="/my_tasks" method="POST" invite="true"  
type="MyApp" content="wants to invite you to xyz app">
<fb:request-form-submit uid="FRIENDID" />
</fb:request-form>

which will create a button that says "Send Fred MyApp Invitation"

# helpers.rb
Old code:
       # Create a submit button for an <fb:request-form>
       def fb_request_form_submit
         tag "fb:request-form-submit"
       end

New code:
    # Create a submit button for an <fb:request-form>
    # options - you can pass uid & label, see http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Fb:request-form-submit 
  for details.
       def fb_request_form_submit(options={})
         tag ("fb:request-form-submit",options)
       end

Usage example:
   <% content_for("invite_message") do %>
     wants to blah blah blah. <%= fb_req_choice("Join XYZ  
ap",url_for(:action => "invite_signup")) %>
   <% end %>
   <% fb_request_form("MyApp","invite_message",url_for(:action =>  
"invite_signup")) do %>
     <%= fb_request_form_submit({:uid => a_pre_determined_friend_id})%>
   <% end %>


Test - This works great for my app! (note im using 1.2.6) ,  I have no  
idea how to write a test for a helper, if someone wants to show me, I  
will do it.

thanks
Joel

Hey Joel,

If you look in rails_integration_test.rb you will see the test for
that helper method.

  def test_fb_request_form_submit
    assert_equal("<fb:request-form-submit />", at h.fb_request_form_submit)
  end

You can add a couple of tests for the options you are adding.

And also, there should be a TODO in the documentation for that method.
 Can you please update it with your patch?

  # TODO: uid and label are options on this tag.


Thanks,

Dave

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] Facebooker interfering with existing application
Message-ID: <a81b0eb50802011431t4952a9a1g9d961a9d8e3a406a@mail.gmail.com>

Hi!

I have an existing application, basically a very simple Hobo app. It
works...

When I install the Facebooker plugin and create the facebooker.yml file
(with valid or fake content, doesn't matter), the original app starts
behaving strangely.

The controller and view logic keeps working, but several static files stop
being served from http://localhost:3000/javascripts and start being searched
for on http://someurl/javascripts, where someurl is the contents of the
callback_url on facebooker.yml.

This seems strange, because no other application file was touched: the
controller, routes.rb, environment.rb, all are just as before.

So, just by dropping the facebooker directory under vendor/plugins and by
copying facebooker.yml to config, the app started looking for the static
files on another URL.

I really would like to be able to have both Hobo and Facebooker controllers
and views on the same app. I also would like that the Facebooker only had
some effect when I'm responding to a Facebook request, and that it left the
normal Web request processing untouched.

I'd appreciate if somebody can point me in the right direction.

You should definitely be able to have Hobo and Facebooker controllers  
on your same application. Does your callback url end up talking to  
your localhost:3000 server? If so, this shouldn't cause a problem. If  
it doesn't, your facebook application is misconfigured.

We're working on making this integration less invasive, but we aren't  
there yet.

Okay, I have this working. We no longer need to set the relative url  
root to make Facebooker generate correct links.

With this setup, javascript_include_tag and stylesheet_link_tag work  
correctly as long as the asset host is set.

Please be careful with this release. All of the tests run, and it  
works on my apps, but it's a major change. You'll want to test it well  
before you use this in production.

Message-ID: <3b8cec990802020357p3b457c81g1daa164264149fc1@mail.gmail.com>

I found a reference to using attachment_fu and followed the lead of it
but having an issue with the redirect_to that renders the fb:render
tag - In my form I'm setting the canvas to false, file is being
uploaded / save fine but when I attempt to redirect:

redirect_to :action => :new, :canvas => true

Unfortunatly it looks like my callback URL is getting printed twice, e.g.

http://myserver.com/my_action/my_action/new

I suppose I could write a helper to pull it out but there's probably a
better way.. Any thoughts?

Try upgrading to the newest facebooker. Those problems should now be  
fixed.

Hi,

I installed Facebooker as a plugin.

when I tried to start mongrel, I got this
error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- net/http_multipart_post
(MissingSourceFile)

I gather from previous messages posted here that
'net/http_multipart_post' is a new library that allows to upload photos to
facebook. However there was no conclusion on this, so decided to post it
again.

I tried running: require 'net/http_multipart_post'  on irb, it reports the
same error as well.

However the error goes away when I build the gem and install it as
stipulated here: http://rfacebook.wordpress.com/2008/01/05/desktop/ . But
Facebooker is supposed to work by installing it as a plugin alone rite?

In the meantime working on it by commenting out line 1
from: /vendor/plugins/facebooker/init.rb

Thank you!

Nik

Hey Nick, the bug is in the plugin install script, for some reason its not copying over the file in the net directory under this plugin, if anyone understands how plugins work beter than I do im sure we can fix it,  to fix for now do:

comment out the first line in init (as long as you dont need to do big files)
or
checkout the code from svn and then copy the file in the net folder over to your vendor/plugins directory manually (the folder was there for me)

its coming from: (
/vendor/plugins/facebooker/lib/facebooker/rails/facebook_url_rewriting.rb:4:in
`relative_url_root' )

Line 4 of facebook_url_rewriting.rb :  Facebooker.path_prefix

Hey Nick, do yo have   callback_url defined in your facebooker.yml ?

if not, try that and see if it goes away, if it doesn't, its probably  
a new issue.

Hi Joel,
Yup, I do have have the callback_url defined in my facebooker.yml, its '
http://localhost:3000'

 This seems to be caused by the line 4: in the ruby file:
vendor/plugins/facebooker/lib/facebooker/rails/facebook_url_rewriting.rb
 it says: Facebooker.path_prefix

Do you have this line in your "facebook_url_rewriting.rb" as well? If not it
might be something new, or the method "path_prefix" might not have loaded
properly :(

-Nik

Some updates on this - using the new debug features in 2.0 [very nice
btw] I managed to determine that in the ~/rails/controller.rb the code
is *not dropping into fbml_redirect_tag
[request_is_for_a_facebook_canvas? returns false] and is instead
getting sent to the super [the rails controller I'm assuming] - so yea
basically stuck - can anybody provide any hints as to where I should
be looking in the code?   Or even a description of the difference
between :canvas => true and :canvas => :false in facebooker terms..
Thanks!

If in the form you are setting :canvas => false then you would not  
want to render an fbml_redirect_tag. Rendering an fbml_redirect tag  
would be send fbml directly to the user's browser. I'm not sure why it  
is including my_action twice in the url. Is my_action the name of a  
controller? It seems like new is probably the action. What does your  
facebooker.yml look like? What revision of facebooker are you using?

Hi,

I tend to use

error_messages_for

so I wrote a helper:

fbml_error_messages_for, that puts the right facebook tags in there &  
formats them somewhat nicely.

Let me know if you think others would like this and I can create some  
testcases so you can add it, otherwise I will just leave in my helper.

Note, the rails helper changed form 1.2 to 2, I hacked up the 1.2 one  
to get this, I think it will work just fine on 2 but not sure.

thanks
Joel



   def fbml_error_messages_for(*params)
     logger.debug "facehelper version being called"
     options = params.last.is_a?(Hash) ? params.pop.symbolize_keys : {}
     objects = params.collect {|object_name|  
instance_variable_get("@#{object_name}") }.compact
     count   = objects.inject(0) {|sum, object| sum +  
object.errors.count }
     unless count.zero?
       html = {}
       [:id, :class].each do |key|
         if options.include?(key)
           value = options[key]
           html[key] = value unless value.blank?
         else
           html[key] = 'errorExplanation'
         end
       end
       header_message = "#{pluralize(count, 'error')} prohibited this  
#{(options[:object_name] || params.first).to_s.gsub('_', ' ')} from

       error_messages = objects.map {|object|

Joel-

This is great.  Can you re-use the existing fb status helpers instead
of the custom content tags? If you include a test, and send it as a
patch to Rubyforge <http://rubyforge.org/projects/facebooker/>, I'll
add it in with attribution.

Thanks,
Shane

For the archives - Mike suggested not using a path in the callback URL
- that seemed to do it..   Thanks Mike!

Seeing as how Bebo's platform is so close to Facebook's, it makes  
sense to me to build in Bebo support to Facebooker.
Is anyone working on this yet and would you guys be open to accepting  
patches for this?
Or should I start a bebo specific sub project, or. . .

Thanks,

Message-ID: <38E73817-EE40-4B6C-89C2-C423F517C533@yahoo.com>

Hi, I can post to my news feed using:

# publish to my feed (userF = my facebook user)
@userF.publish_story((s = Facebooker::Feed::Story.new; s.title =  
'joels story title'; s.body = 'joels crazy body'; s))

# publish to a friends feed (@fsession = my facebook session)
fred_user = Facebooker::User.new(7779966751, at fsession)
fred_user.publish_story((s = Facebooker::Feed::Story.new; s.title =  
'joels just did blah blah'; s.body = 'joels crazy body'; s))

When I do this, I get 2 stories in my feed and none in my friends feed.

any ideas?

I have seen the news about requiring a session to post to a feed, but  
I thought you could still post to your friends feeds (just not your  
friends friends).

thanks
Joel

Seem to recall that publishStory only sends to the current logged in user:

http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Feed.publishStoryToUser

i.e. can't really send to Fred that way - I think what you really want
to use is publish_action ?

also assumes that Fred is both your friend and has the app installed..
  TemplatizedAction will send to all friends but its abt to be
depreciated..

Not sure why youre gettn two of them tho..  probably a side effect of
what youre trying do..

Joel,
You have to use the "fake session" technique.

This is the method I use to create the session:
def fake_session
     session = Facebooker::Session.create
     session.secure_with! self.facebook_session_key,  
self.facebook_uid, 0
     session
   end

The facebook_session_key is the user's (who you're publishing to)  
infinite session key.

Then, any methods you call on this session look like you're calling  
them from the other user, instead of the current user doing the action.

Now, having said that, I'm guessing you're actually looking to use http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Feed.publishTemplatizedAction 
.
This lets you do something like "{actor} did something to {target}"  
and just specify the actor's id and any number of target ids.

Hope that helps,
BJ

Thanks BJ & John,

couple more questions,

Is TemplatizedAction really going away or just requiring a valid  
session (or fake one as BJ has outlined how to do)?

see http://developers.facebook.com/news.php?blog=1&story=69

So given that, if I have a valid user that is logged in to generate a  
story in all their friends feeds, I don't need a fake session right? I  
only need this if im trying to generate news from a backend process  
that doesnt have a valid logged in user right?

So would this work (assuming I have a valid logged in user @userF:

(@userF is the current facebook user)
action = Facebooker::Feed::TemplatizedAction.new
action.actor_id = @userF.id
action.title_template = "test from {actor} did something"
action.target_ids = "comma seperated list of friend ids"
@userF.publish_templatized_action(action)

I got a response code of 1 for this but dont see the story in my  
friends account, is there a delay in posting stories?

Is there a safety setting or something that if your app is not in  
production it will not let you post to others feeds?

thanks
Joel

Publish templatized feed isn't going away, but publish action of user
might since the templatized call makes it redundant.  Facebook changed
the rules so that only logged in active users can publish feeds.  So
you cannot publish it at a later time using someone else's session
key.

Also, the actor_id parameter isn't needed anymore.  You still need to
put {actor} somewhere in your title template though.  Facebook will
populate {actor} using the user who the session_key belongs to.

Hey BJ,

I am in the middle of a release right now but would love to start
looking at this next week.   We talked about this awhile ago on the
list and Mike wanted to work on it in parallel, get it working, then
look at how you could merge it in.

Does anyone have a working example of ajax with facebooker & rails  
running within a canvas?

How about using the new "useLocalProxy "?

Here is the approach im thinking of:

Assumptions:

- Since I cant use prototype (I dont think I can at least), as BJ said  
I cant use the view helpers.
- I also cant use the render stuff in the controller as it renders a  
prototype js response right?

Approach
Pretty much roll your own (good place for facebooker to pick up the  
slack maybe?)

Ive done some trial and error and here are my problems so far:

- If I go through the callback url, I get a bunch of fbml crap in the  
response of the ajax request, even when I mark it RAW

- If I use the local proxy method, I get a direct connect, but what do  
I do to validate the user is logged in and get their ID in this case?

For responses, I could use just a RAW string, or try to encode as JSON?

thanks
Joel

Hi All,I'm trying to get tunnelling working so I don't have to cap deploy
anymore... Mike Mangino showed us how to do it the other day and he made it
look so easy.

For some reason, when I type rake facebooker:tunnel:start it throws an
error:

rake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'facebooker:tunnel:start'

Any ideas?  I have it installed as a plugin.  running on a mac.

I've been using the javascript with AJAX for a bit.  Here are some of
the things I've learned:

Prototype does not work,  so you have to roll your own.  If you've got
questions, I can answer questions what I'm using, but my code is sadly
not abstracted enough yet to use as a library.  Hopefully when I have
some time.

I haven't been able to get useLocalProxy working reliably.  It appears
to only work on port 80, which makes testing it a pain in the
butt--I'll reconfigure my tunnel eventually to hit port 80 and test,
but I don't have working experience with that yet.

My solution for returning AJAX calls right now is to use render
:text=>"something", which is working, but certainly not elegant.

You can use

     yourAjaxObject.requireLogin = true;

 to pass all the login parameters along with the request.

The other tricky thing is that it's not a real AJAX request, so you
can't use ".xhr?" to determine if the request is an AJAX call.  You
have to use "if params[:fb_sig_is_ajax] " instead.

My only other suggestion is to use Firebug to watch the calls go out.
It helps a lot to see what you're getting back.

Dustin-

When you do 'rake -T', do you see the facebooker:tunnel tasks? Are you
using a relatively recent build of the plugin?

I don't have the facebooker tasks... I'm confident that I have an older
version that doesn't have the rake tasks.  I've done script/plugin update
facebooker and it doesn't update anything... it says:
Updating plugin: facebooker
and then doesn't do any updating...

So, maybe I don't really know how to manage plugins?  How do I update the
plugin?

Thanks!
Dustin

How did you install it initially? Remove it and install it again.
This may mess things up if you are using svn externals though.

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] need help with getting users info
Message-ID: <515384780802061432k2ed05a34n6fe7a5c59969e8bb@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I'm trying to implement my app into facebook and I am having a little
trouble finding anything like getInfo in the docs.

I can easily get info on the current user, but how would I get the same info
with another user's uid? And would I be able to combine this into one
call?   I am trying to get names and profile pics (square) of two users.

Thanks.  I am still fresh in the rails world and especially facebooker (i
have used a little of rfacebook, though).

you also have to do a --force when you reinstall the plugin

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] Built-In Bebo Support
Message-ID: <D3C1421C-AB61-4DED-A371-FDDF049B24BA@scidept.com>

My co-worker and have been working on this all day. I think we're  
pretty close, but I'm having a problem trying to modify session.rb to  
work wtih both bebo and facebook support.

Here's what I've done:
I changed facebooker.yml to have a bebo_secret_key, bebo_api_key, etc.
Then, in init.rb I did:

facebook_config = "#{RAILS_ROOT}/config/facebooker.yml"

if File.exist?(facebook_config)
   FACEBOOKER = YAML.load_file(facebook_config)[RAILS_ENV]
   ENV['FACEBOOK_API_KEY'] = FACEBOOKER['api_key']
   ENV['FACEBOOK_SECRET_KEY'] = FACEBOOKER['secret_key']
   ENV['FACEBOOKER_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT'] = FACEBOOKER['canvas_page_name']
   ENV["FACEBOOK_CANVAS_PATH"] = 'blah_blah'
   ENV['BEBO_API_KEY'] = FACEBOOKER['bebo_api_key']
   ENV['BEBO_SECRET_KEY'] = FACEBOOKER['bebo_secret_key']
   ENV['BEBO_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT'] = FACEBOOKER['bebo_canvas_page_name']
   ENV["BEBO_CANVAS_PATH"] = 'blah_blah'
end

So, then in session.rb I see that this gets called when it goes to  
secure the session:
def self.secret_key
       extract_key_from_environment(:secret) ||  
extract_key_from_configuration_file(:secret) rescue  
report_inability_to_find_key(:secret)
     end


and that should be calling the extract_key_from_environment method.
So I modified it to look like this (and this is where I get stuck):

def self.extract_key_from_environment(key_name)
         if params[:fb_sig_network] == "Bebo"
           logger.debug "Extracting bebo #{key_name.to_s}"
           val = ENV["BEBO_" + key_name.to_s.upcase + "_KEY"]
         else
           logger.debug "Extracting facebook #{key_name.to_s}"
           val = ENV["FACEBOOK_" + key_name.to_s.upcase + "_KEY"]
         end
       end

I always get the error "Facebooker::Session::ConfigurationMissing  
(Could not find configuration information for secret):"
The logger.debug message never get called (which really confuses me).
Now, If use the code that is currently in the plugin, I have no  
problem on facebook, and bebo gives me the IncorrectSignature error,  
which is the correct behavior.

I don't understand why it's failing like this.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Hi, I'm wondering if folks would care to share what strategies they're
using, or tips and tricks for writing functional tests for their apps that
use Facebooker?  I'm starting to look into this, but wanted to see what
others had come up with before going too far.

Hi Folks, thanks for the help today,  I think I got it working pretty  
well, I have posted 3 examples on using ajax with rails & facebook.  
Not really facebooker specific stuff, but thought the list might like  
to have for reference.

Hey BJ,

On first pass I am wondering where are you getting 'params' from?

I think you are catching an exception there and the rescue is taking care of it.

Just a guess, I didn't try it.

I have a fb_link_to_remote that works with :update, let me try to  
clean that up and add it in.

Hey BJ,

take a look at facebook_session_handling this seems like a good place
to figure this out.

You could set somthing up on the CGI:Session that would indicate which
context you are in.

I am CC the list here so that others can get a feel for what the issues are.

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] Doc confusion for publichTemplatizedAction
Message-ID: <ea9161c50802071013u66050f31se023884722eb0054@mail.gmail.com>

Hey All,

I recently go re-confused about the differece between
publichActionOfUser and publishTemplatizedAction.

My confusion was around how to publish stories to users that haven't
installed the application yet.  What I found was that the
documentation is not consistant.


The WIKI states that the feed item will 'possibly' be published to
user who do not yet have the app.

http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Feed.publishTemplatizedAction

"Feed.publishTemplatizedAction
Publishes a Mini-Feed story to the user or Page corresponding to the
session_key or page_actor_id parameter. For user stories, this
function publishes News Feed stories to the friends of that user."

The documentation page states that it will only be published to user
that have installed the app.

http://developers.facebook.com/documentation.php?v=1.0&method=feed.publishTemplatizedAction
"facebook.feed.publishTemplatizedAction
Publishes a Mini-Feed story to the user corresponding to the
session_key parameter, and publishes News Feed stories to the friends
of that user who have added the application."

I think that the wiki is correct, since I see this happen in the real
world.  Anyone have an insight?

You aren't publishing an action to a user,

You publish the action of one of your application users which may or  
may not be shown to people who haven't installed your application. If  
you want to send a message to a user who hasn't installed the  
application, you can use a notification.

Right,

So the wiki documentation is correct and the developer doc is
incorrect?  Or am I missing, mis-reading, something.

Good discussion on this here:

http://forum.developers.facebook.com/viewtopic.php?id=9020

I did a test the other day, it took at least several hours to show up  
on a  feed with the app installed and without it, but it did for both

Message-ID: <351dab120802071616w792b7f5y86773b960aeb09e7@mail.gmail.com>

Having some problems with the following code:

 @session = session[:facebook_session]
 user_ids = params[:ids]
 invitation_type = "foo"
 content = "bar"
 image_url = "quux"
 @session.send_invitation(user_ids,invitation_type,content,image_url)

It's dying with this:

NoMethodError (You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
The error occurred while evaluating nil.new):

I'm guessing I'm calling send_invitation incorrectly, but I'm confused

Don't know off the top of my head what might be wrong with your code,
I seem to remember that the URL needs to be valid.

But anyway the code is blowing up because we are not finding the error
code in our list of error codes.

BTW:  Looks like your version of Facebooker might be out of date? Line
332 for me is part of a hash assignment and doesn't have the line I
think you are blowing up on.

        raise EXCEPTIONS[Integer(hash['error_code'])].new(hash['error_msg'])


Can you add some debug info into  process method on the parser right
before it blows up?  It would be great to know what that error code
is.


Thanks,
Dave

Hey Aaron,

Can you update your facebooker codebase.  This method was removed from
the facebook API :
http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Notifications.sendRequest

I think there have been some updates made by mike recently regarding this.


CC the list so that all can benefit.

Hi Guys,

I posted some code a while ago to log facebook rest calls, I cant  
think of a good way to put this into facebooker without adding rails  
dependency, but it seems like it would be helpful.

Does anyone have any ideas, where we can get good rest call logging in  
dev but nothing in prod. I know you are trying to keep facebooker pure  
ruby and this method is in the ruby part (not the rails part). Is  
there a standard logger for ruby that everyone uses (like log4j in the  
java world)?

Here is my version with rails logger:

(in Service class change the post method to: )
     def post(params)
            logger.debug "About to post to :" + url.to_s
            logger.debug "with params:"
            params.each { |elem| logger.debug elem[0].to_s + " : " +
     elem[1].to_s}
            resp,data = Net::HTTP.post_form(url, params)
            logger.debug "Result: " + resp.to_s
            logger.debug "Response Data: " + data.to_s
            Parser.parse(params[:method],resp)
          end


thanks
Joel

Message-ID: <D605AE30-1B05-4B50-B8AC-E11D80A7928C@hwrd.com>

I may be missing something, but I am unable to do a RESTful delete  
using Facebooker.

In routes.rb, I have:

   map.resources :runs

I am using the following to try and delete:

<%= link_to "Delete", run, :method => :delete %>

However, instead of calling 'delete' it does the 'show' action.

How can I do a RESTful delete using Facebooker?

Thanks,
Brian

Hey All,

I have been working on a a Facebooker Tutorial application.  The main
idea is to take all these code snippets that I create answering
questions, or testing out functionality and wrap them up into mini
lessons.   All the code examples in the tutorial are live and come
direct from the file system.  What I have so far is just the start,  I
have another 10 - 15 examples on my filesystem that I need to pull
together.

I would love some feedback if anyone has any time.

http://apps.facebook.com/facebooker_tutorial/

Don't worry you don't have to invite 20 friends to check it out, :)

Thanks,

Dave

Dave,

this is awesome! I wish I had it a few weeks ago when I was starting  
Facebooker! Very Cool!

Couple small things:
- invite your friends skip button doesn't go anywhere for me. (didnt  
know if there was another tutorial)
- missing 'e' on your text next the users at top of invite friends  
("th users")

also, im not sure if its a rails 2 thing or what (and maybe some of  
the gurus on this list can enlighten me) , but in rails 1.2, I had to  
add an actual before_filter to add an :except clause. Im not sure the  
diff between:

ensure_authenticated_to_facebook [:except => 'add_facebook_application']

and

before_filter :ensure_authenticated_to_facebook [:except =>  
'add_facebook_application']

Hey,

Yeah, I think I have run into this before.  The 'friends' call on a
User actually calls
'@session.post('facebook.friends.get')'

So you always get the friends of the user for the current session.  I
kinda think it should blow up with an Exception.

In order to be able to @source.friends_with?(@dest) you will need to
have a facebook session setup for @source.


Does that make sense? Am I following you?

CC"ing the list so that all can enjoy.

Dave

Hello list! I hope this is an appropriate topic. I understand what is happening here and am not sure if there is an easy answer, especially given the four goals listed on the Readme. 

It seems as though there is a mismatch between the functionality the Facebook REST API provides and what Facebooker is attempting to do by "rubyist-ing" it. As I have not gone too deep with the Facebooker plugin as of yet this may be the only example but I believe it is a good one and something that warrants more discussion. 

The question I have is, should Facebooker provide all of the functionality that the Facebook REST api does? In this case, should you ensure that a call " user1.friends_with?(user2) " provides the same output as "friends.areFriends( user1, user2 ) "?  Since Facebook allows you to swap user1 & user2 and get the same results I (personally) would expect the same from an API wrapper. 

If that is the case it may be as easy to fix as changing the method:

    def friends_with?(user_or_id)
      friends.map{|f| f.to_i}.include?(user_or_id.to_i)  
    end

TO 

    def friends_with?(user_or_id)
         results = session.post('facebook.friends.areFriends', :uids1 => self.uid, :uids2=> user_or_id.to_i )
          #ok , i decided i dont want to write the rest of this :)        
    end

Hey,

Yeah, I think I have run into this before.  The 'friends' call on a
User actually calls
'@session.post('facebook.friends.get')'

So you always get the friends of the user for the current session.  I
kinda think it should blow up with an Exception.

In order to be able to @source.friends_with?(@dest) you will need to
have a facebook session setup for @source.


Does that make sense? Am I following you?

CC"ing the list so that all can enjoy.

William-

Facebooker aims to provide all the functionality of Facebook's API.  I
don't understand your concern though.  user1.friends_with?(user2)
should return the same result as user2.friends_with(user1), which maps
directly to the Facebook call.  Is there something I'm missing?

I'm not sure what you mean by "rubyist-ing".  We are returning objects
instead of XML that you would have to manually parse.  This would be
the case if an API wrapper was well designed in any object oriented
language.

I think you want to be using session.check_friendship instead of
user.friends_with?.

   # Given an array like:
   # [[userid, otheruserid], [yetanotherid, andanotherid]]
   # returns a Hash indicating friendship of those pairs:
   # {[userid, otheruserid] => true, [yetanotherid, andanotherid] => false}
   # if one of the Hash values is nil, it means the facebook
platform's answer is "I don't know"
   def check_friendship(array_of_pairs_of_users)
     uids1 = []
     uids2 = []
     array_of_pairs_of_users.each do |pair|
       uids1 = pair.first
       uids2 = pair.last
     end
     post('facebook.friends.areFriends', :uids1 => uids1, :uids2 => uids2)
   end

Message-ID: <B29D6163-9223-4BF9-BBE1-3C631F28A6A0@gmail.com>

Is anyone using rSpec for their tests with Facebooker?
If so is it working? I am about to integrate a new app into Facebook  
and all the tests are written in rSpec and not flexmock / mocha like  
the tests in Facebooker are.

I am just looking for a potential list of gotchas and possibly some  
sample code ;-)

Thanks!

Hey all,

I am getting this error code publishing and action.

 346 	 API_EC_EDIT_FEED_BODY_LENGTH 	 Feed story body is too long


Looks like the limit is currently "200"  ,  what do you guys think
about putting validation into Facebooker for this kind of thing?  So
that it blows up right away.

Message-ID: <4ab757a40802121911k4277e97bv59b54fab2dd487ec@mail.gmail.com>

Hey guys-

I'm nearly done implementing the new ApplicationProperties calls.  But
I want to get feedback on how to include JSON support.  We need to
encode and decode JSON to properly handle these calls.  I'm currenting
using ActiveSupport's JSON implementation.  For those of you using
Facebooker as a Rails plugin, this will work great since ActiveSupport
is included with Rails, but we need a fallback solution for people
using just the gem without Rails.  Including all of ActiveSupport to
just support JSON seems overkill.  Should we go ahead and make
ActiveSupport a dependency on the gem, or is there a lighter-weight
JSON library that will fit our needs? Another option is just to
include our own JSON encoding/decoding without any dependencies.

Thanks,
Shane

I vote for lighter weight.

This project looks pretty active:

Thanks Joel for the feedback, I made the changes you suggested and
added another lesson.  I am going to try and add one a day.

As for the before_filter thing.  I was on rails 1.2 up until a couple
of weeks ago and I didn't need to do what you mentioned.  And looking
at the Facebooker code, it does exactly what you are doing manually

def ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user(options = {})
          before_filter
:ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user, options
        end

I wonder what is going on there.

Thanks guys.  I actually looked at that gem first, but its interface
didn't seem as simple as ActiveSupport's, but I'll give it a second
look.

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] Submitting patches to facebooker and uploading
	photos
Message-ID: <4cdd0d160802131537i7d001e68w25f6111ca53d64fb@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

I just started working with facebooker, and though documentation is
scarce, the code has been clean enough for me to follow along and
figure things out.  I have two questions:

1) Where/how does one submit a patch?  I checked around the history of
the mailing list, and I didn't see any offhand searching for /submit
(patch)?/

I have a minor patch to allow uploading of photos in a single function
call.  I've followed convention and stuck it by the get_photos() and
get_albums() in sessions.rb, as I don't know where else it would be
better suited.

Please let me know how/where I can submit patches.

2) It took me a while to find the get_photos call in
Facebooker::Session.  I had intuitively thought that I'd be able to
get an album's photos like:

facebook_session.user.albums[0].photos  # => gives an array of Facebooker::Photo

but instead, one must do:

aid = facebook_session.user.albums.first.aid
facebook_session.get_photos(nil, nil, aid)

Is there a reason for that?  I'm just wondering if the former would be
better?  Thanks.

Wilhelm

Wilhelm,

You can either send patches to the Rubyforge page, or even better,  
send them to the list.

I'd love to see both of your patches.

Here is the first one.  It was a diff of lib/facebooker/session.rb r172.

I didn't know where else to stick upload_photo() other than by
get_photos().  If there's a better place for it, by all means, move
it.

Should I have written tests and documentation for it?  I saw multipart
file posting in the tests, so I figured upload_photo probably
works...?

Message-ID: <4ab757a40802132308j12199267ta35ef1798873a020@mail.gmail.com>

Hey guys-

Two new features:

Set/get app properties like this:

    properties = { :application_name => "Video Jukebox", :default_fbml
=> "blah" }
    facebook_session.admin.set_app_properties(properties)

    properties =
facebook_session.admin.get_app_properties(:application_name,
:default_fbml)

Set/get cookies:

    facebook_session.data.set_cookie(uid, 'name', 'value')

    facebook_session.data.get_cookies(uid)

Let me know if there are any issues.

-Shane

Here is the second.  I added upload_photo() and photos() to the Album
class, along with a simple initialization to get the session set.
It's not as flexible as User, so it currently only uses the current
session.

So now, one can do this to get an album's photos
  facebook_session.user.albums[0].photos

And this to upload to that album
  facebook_session.user.albums[0].upload_photo("public/images/sunset.jpg",
"new sunset photo")

They currently both depend on get_photos() and upload_photo() to be in
the Session object.  Please review the patch.

On another note, I wasn't able to run the tests.  I can't find
flexmock anywhere.  Where would this be?
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- flexmock/test_unit
(LoadError)
        from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in

        from -e:1

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] redirect_to still broken?
Message-ID: <e687c1190802141136l7a5ad8edq4f792b630e5ec9a8@mail.gmail.com>

I saw that back in Jan there was a bug with the redirect_to. The
thread ended with no resolution. Anybody know whats up with that?
Not sure if my problem is the same but below is my error log:

NoMethodError (undefined method `symbol_url' for #<WantsController:0xb72e5984>):

The facebooker version of redirect_to doesn't work with polymorphic
routes yet.  For now use the full url.  It'll be great if someone can
come up with a patch.  Right now we just pass along the args to the
fbml redirect tag, assuming it is a url.

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] RESTful Delete
Message-ID: <2D7786CB-48EF-4DE0-ABFD-884EB3CDFA40@hwrd.com>

I sent this question out about a week ago, but never got a response...

I have so far been unable to do a RESTful delete using Facebooker.

In my config/routes.rb, I have:

map.resources :runs

I am trying to do the delete using:

<%= link_to "Delete", run, :method => :delete %>

However, instead of doing the 'delete', it calls the 'show' action.

Has anyone been successful doing a RESTful delete using Facebooker?

Thanks,
Brian

I know the FB Data Store API supports RESTful deletes but does the
regular API support it?

Brian-

Is this a link to a canvas page or an action on your callback server?
Can you try link_to with either :canvas => true or :canvas => false
and see if it works?

Hi Shane,

I tried both ways with identical results to my original message.

I am trying to call a normal REST 'destroy' action in my controller  
from a canvas page:

   # DELETE /runs/1
   # DELETE /runs/1.xml
   def destroy
     @run = Run.find(params[:id])
     @run.destroy

     respond_to do |format|
       format.html { redirect_to(runs_url) }
       format.fbml { redirect_to(runs_url) }
       format.xml  { head :ok }
     end

It appears that it is trying to do a POST to /runs/1 when it should be  
doing a DELETE to /runs/1.  Since it is doing a POST, it looks to be  
calling the 'show' action instead of the 'destroy' action.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Brian

What source gets generated by that? Is it using Prototype to build a  
form on demand? If so, that won't work since prototype doesn't work  
via FBJS.

I'm slowly but surely working on replacing prototype functionality  
inside facebook with working FBJS. I'd love some help with that.

Mike-

It'll be great to have an FBJS version of Prototype (and possibly
JQuery).  David Newbury already has a FBJS version of
getElementsByClassName that we can contribute.

I added a method to get the number of notifications your app is allowed per day.

facebook_session.admin.get_allocation(:notifications_per_day)

Right now it will always return 40, until Facebook starts calculating
it based on the spaminess of your app.

gem install flexmock

I haven't seen the patch yet but I like the idea of having convenience
behavior methods on the models that make them easier to use, so you
don't have to directly use session all the time.

I don't think it is a great idea to hardcode the content type to image/ 
jpg, as facebook will let you upload other file types and convert them  
to jpeg's for you. Perhaps it would make more sense just to add  
optional aid, and caption fields to the exsiting User#upload_photo.  
And then have Album#upload_photo defer to that.

I just added a class that is similar to ActionMailer for publishing  
Facebook feeds and notifications.

The documentation is at http://facebooker.rubyforge.org/ (http://facebooker.rubyforge.org/classes/Facebooker/Rails/Publisher.html 
  in particular)

Not only does it let you do things like

TestPublisher.deliver_app_add_action(@user)

but it also makes view and routing helpers available to you.

Let me know what you think.

Message-ID: <e44e562e0802151125l6be9b02atf9866bab8fa65ce5@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I try to learn how to use facebooker plugin.
I would like to edit *multiple models in one form* that's why I use
"field_for" helper.
Unfortunately, it does not react as "facebook_form_for" since is does not
create an <fb:editor> context. Furthermore, It does not work even though I
put a "fields_for" within a "facebook_form_for" scope.

Is there a way to use the standard rails form helpers, converted into the
facebook specific version, within a "fields_for" as it is done within a
"facebook_form_for".

Thanks a lot for your help

Matt

I think you can just pass

Is there a way to specify a method to be invoked when an FB session is created?  I'd like to cache certain user/friend info when the user starts a new session with the app, and then not call the caching function again on existing sessions.

not that I know of, but you can use traditional helpers and surround  
them manually in the fbeditor markup, not beautiful but it will work  
with multiple models.

<fb:editor-custom label="Due Date">
       <%=datetime_select :task, :duedate,:order =>  
[:month,:day,:year],:twelve_hour => true,:minute_step =>  
15, :use_short_month => true  %>
</fb:editor-custom>

I put a bunch of form examples in my blog a while back:

OK, so I finally got the time to work on this, and got rake
facebooker:tunnel:start to run, but it's not tunnelling.  I'm guessing
it has something to do with the file in /etc/ssh/sshd_config ?

When I type rake facebooker:tunnel:start, it says:
Starting tunnel myserver.com:8001 to 0.0.0.0:3000

But, if I go to myserver.com:8001 it doesn't end up at my server.

Anyway, here's how I have my app set up:

facebooker.yml:
development:
    api_key: yadayadanumbers
    secret_key: yadayadanumbersandstuff
    canvas_page_name: my_app_name
    callback_url:  http://myserver.com:8001
    tunnel:
      public_host_username: my_username
      public_host: myserver.com
      public_port: 8001
      local_port: 3000

On my server, the only thing I've done to "open" the ports is added
this line to etc/ssh/sshd_config :
GatewayPorts clientspecified

In the application configuration on facebook.com, I have set the
callback_url to be:
http://myserver.com:8001

Anyway, I feel like I'm getting close, but I don't totally get what
the sshd_config file does and I have a feeling I'm missing something.

Thanks for all your help.

Hey shawn,  I don't have the code in front of me so this might be wrong.

Facebooker creates a new facebooker::session object on each request.   
So I don't think you will be able to hook into the create to do this.

I typically have a facebook_users table that I use to cache info about  
users.  That being said I think it is against the TOS to store much  
more than UID, session key and expires.

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] Patch submission?
Message-ID: <FE1E04DE-2357-4AEA-8D32-257DD9D61025@humanesoftware.com>

I've got two additions I'd like to submit for inclusion in facebooker.  
The first is support for reading Friend Lists (which are, sadly, an  
underused feature of Facebook); its not a complicated addition, and I  
wasn't able to find any unit tests that check the facebook rest API  
requests or responses. I think this one is pretty straightforward,  
with a low potential for breaking things.

The second change I'm less sure of. I found that doing an AJAX call to  
my application from facebook had some problems with authentication...  
both in rails and then in facebooker. I was able to solve the Rails  
form authentication issues by simply providing a secret key in the  
application controller (since the normal cookie approach doesn't work  
when you're getting some calls from a facebook server and other calls  
from the real client). However the facebooker filters (ensuring the  
user has added the app and is authenticated) failed to work because  
the AJAX call wasn't requesting a canvas. So I've added a method to  
the facebooker controller.rb called "request_is_ajax?" and updated the  
"secure_with_facebook_params!" method to create the :facebook_session  
if the request is either for a facebook canvas or is an ajax request.  
It works in my code, but if there's a more correct way that's already  
there (but I didn't find) to handle Ajax requests made directly to the  
app via a facebook canvas, then please let me know.

So what's the best way to submit these patches? Any requirements or  
hoops I need to jump through to get them accepted?

Make sure the patch includes tests, and submit it to Rubyforge:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/facebooker/.  I'm not sure what you mean
when you say you couldn't find tests that check the API
requests/responses.  There are a bunch of them.  Check out something
like facebook_admin_test.

Well, I didn't find facebook_admin_test, but i did look at  
facebooker_test.rb and that seems to have the unit tests I'd missed  
before. I was expecting them to be split among more files, with at  
least some of them named like the facebooker "model" classes. I guess  
I didn't know what I should be looking for when I was poking through  
them that first day.

I've never submitted a patch to anything before... what's the process  
for generating them? I'm on a Unix (mac) system.

Message-ID: <FE0D013B-52BA-4EAD-9B5C-53BF98E0636F@humanesoftware.com>

As I've been writing my app, I've been embedding javascript methods in  
the FBML that's dynamically generated. As I've got the methods locked  
down, I moved a bunch to an external static javascript file in public/ 
javascripts. Now I've got some more methods that are solid enough to  
move to the static file, but facebook seems to have cached it and I  
can't get it to update the file.

I've tried calling  
"session[ :facebook_session ].server_cache.refresh_ref_url(...);" in  
my controller with both the full URL and relative URL for the  
javascript file, and I get back TRUE. But its been several hours now  
and facebook still has the old version cached. Is there something else  
I need to do that will force the update?

Thanks!

Hey All,

Just a quick note , I am loving the new Publisher API in facebooker
and added it to the tutorial app.

http://apps.facebook.com/facebooker_tutorial/messaging/mini_feed

I also added some code to monkey_patch the request response to that
you can see it in the log.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated, especially if you have some ideas
on lessons I should add.

I just updated the code to include a Rails generator. You can now run  
scipt/generate publisher Attack to create an attacks_publisher.rb

I'll be working on adding profile updates and better template support  
as the week progresses.

Has anyone else used this? If so, I'd love some feedback.

Here are the steps I did so far but can't seem to get messages posted to the user's of facebook. Any ideas?
If the email messaging is working correctly does the emails stay in the user's facebook email notifications or do they get sent back out to their corresponding email accounts (i.e yahoo)?


1)      Created an app in facebook and its definitely doing a call back to my app

2)       Shared the app with a friend



Please see below output and method call. Any ideas

Message-ID: <4cdd0d160802201602y342c0b63l4cf1ee236a68142@mail.gmail.com>

I recently tried upgrading to the newer version of facebooker plugin
from r174.  I wasn't able to boot up the app server, as it was
complaining about options and requires.

=> Booting Mongrel (use 'script/server webrick' to force WEBrick)
=> Rails application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Debugger enabled
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server

        from ./script/server:3:in `require'
        from ./script/server:3

After tearing my hair out for a bit >:( , the culprit is the first
line in lib/facebooker.rb:

require 'json'

And looking on the ApplicationsPropertyCalls thread on the mailinglist
archives, it seems like it's a gem that just got added.

Can it be included in the plugin so that newcomers and those of us
that upgraded don't have to be perplexed when the app server won't
start up?   Or at least, have it be mentioned in the README?  I'll
gladly do the latter, if the former is not an option.  Thanks.

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] using mobile features
Message-ID: <47E20E6D-99AC-4AF3-9310-08A8834F4F63@yahoo.com>

I want to send SMS using the Facebook mobile features:
   http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Mobile

I can't find anything about this in the facebooker docs. I'm  
suspicious that facebook has implemented these features in a slightly  
bizarro way. Is there any way for me to do calls like sms.send or  
whatever through facebooker? Even if at first I have to do it a bit  
hackishly?

Thanks,

That sounds pretty typical. They provide an aggregator like interface  
to receive messages and a simple interface to send them. I would love  
to see this in Facebooker, but it's not the top thing on my priority  
list. I still need to finish up the code to make link_to_remote and  
periodically_call_remote work on Facebook and then to finish up the  
publisher API.

I can definitely give advice on implementing this. It shouldn't be  
that hard.

Also Shane I see 200 and 104 Codes. Do you know if these are return codes? Am I making the right call? I check the API and see the following http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Notifications.sendEmail



See after line below - email sent for the users 706585  1110434684  1118298029  1110434684  should be sent

Any ideas from anyone?

Tried the suggestions you mentioned, still no luck, have 4 friends then tried to send them the email, and nothing. Is it the right call? Can it be something on facebook end preventing emails to get sent out or registered within the app?

Wilhelm-

The json gem is included as a depenency on the facebooker gem.  How
are you installing it? If you are installing it as a Rails plugin
using script/plugin, the gem dependency mechanism probably wont' work.
 Does anyone know how to add a dependency on a Rails plugin? Has
anyone tried this with Piston?

Thanks,
Shane

Where are we using the json support? Is that something that we could  
just disable if the gem isn't present? This bit me too because I  
install with piston.

Michael- 104 is the Incorrect Signature error.  Make sure the session
key that used to make the call is the same as the one in params.
Print out both so you can tell if there is a mismatch.

Mike-

It is used for the get_app_properties call, which retrieves all the
properties as a json array that needs to be parsed.  If the json gem
is disabled, that call won't work.  This dependency should work fine
for gem installations, but I'm sure there is a dependency mechanism
for plugins that we can incorporate.  Does Piston not install
dependencies? I'm sure this problem has been solved elsewhere.

Yeah, I installed it using piston.  I wasn't aware that piston pulled
in dependencies as well (if it does, it doesn't appear to do so).

I ended up installing the json gem, and then freezing it to the rails
vendor/gems directory.  And then I included it in the load_paths in
the configuration for environment.rb  (I'm on a shared host)

Yeah, I definitely want advice on how to implement it! Especially if  
I can do it in a couple of days.

It doesn't. There are no dependencies there.

I'd rather have the get_app_properties call not work than to have my  
whole app fail. If we're going to leave this requirement in, we need  
to remove the line about "requiring only the standard library"  from  
the package description :)

And yet another update, no with rendering goodness


def AttackPublisher < Facebooker::Rails::Publisher

	def profile_update(user)
	  send_as :profile
           recipients user
           profile render(:partial=>"profile",:assigns=>{:user=>user}
	end

end

When I call AttackPublisher.deliver_profile_update(user)

it will render app/views/_profile.erb with @user set to user and then  
send the profile FBML to Facebook

You can now render in all of your Publisher methods.

Enjoy!

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] Announcing the new Batch API
Message-ID: <8233C83D-2C6A-4F9C-8F4A-9A51C808CD6E@elevatedrails.com>

It's been a month since the facebook batch API was announced. Now, you  
can use it with your favorite framework.

First, an example:

facebook_session.batch do
   @send_result =  
facebook_session.send_notification([12451752],"Woohoo")
   @albums = facebook_session.user.albums
end
puts @albums.first.inspect

Every call to Facebook for the batched session will be sent at once.  
Results are available outside of the block. In the above example, you  
can't access @albums inside the block passed to batch (After all, the  
albums haven't been retrieved yet)

Once the block is executed, you can treat @albums just like the old  
return value.

Some internal changes were required for this to work. I updated all of  
the accesses I saw in session, user and data. Let me know if you get  
errors anywhere else.

I'll be blogging about the implementation at some point. It's a pretty  
cool example of dynamic ruby.

Mike

I thought i'd share this snippet with others on the list who want to  
use the facebooker before filters but also want their app to run on a  
non-facebook format too:

before_filter {|controller|  
ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user if controller.params 
["format"] == "fbml" }

This simply wraps the facebooker before_filter in a proc and only  
executes it if the format is "fbml"

Hope that is helpful.

Message-ID: <e44e562e0802240423l5cef5fe2sa750b504491e9d38@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I don't really understand if it's possible to call a javascript function
from a rails controller.
For instance, I want to update my view when someone submit my form and after
I checked it was valid. ( puts a "<fb:success message=\"Changes saved.\" />"
in my case).

def save
    # I do all my verifications...
    render :update do |page|
       page.call "my_javascript_function"
       # Or with facebook id : page.call "aXXXXXXXX_my_javascript_function"
    end
end

Is there a way to do it ?
Thanks a lot, I'm a bit lost :S

Matt

Matt,
You need to read up on respond_to blocks it takes a .js argument to  
be used when a page requests a javascript return object. You can then  
use something like an rjs template to update the page that called it  
through something like an ajax event.

I could be wrong, but I dont think the rjs stuff works out of the box  
with facebook. Mike is working on a facebook specific link_to_remote  
that will be the simplest way to do this , but until then you can do  
it yourself.

see http://jnylund.typepad.com/joels_blog/2008/02/ajax-rails-face.html  
for some examples of how to do ajax/js stuff in facebook.

If you look at Joel's second example and wrap you javascript function
call in <script> tags then your function should get called.


def example2
    is_checked = params[:ischecked]
    if is_checked == "true"
      txt_to_render = "<fb:success message=\"Task has been marked
complete!\" /> <script> aXXXXXXXX_my_javascript_function();</script>"
    else
      txt_to_render = "<fb:success message=\"Task has been marked
incomplete!\" />"
    end
    render :text => txt_to_render, :layout => false
  end

Subject: [Facebooker-talk] Running Facebooker from script/runner
Message-ID: <27A1059D-D1A9-4523-80CB-0C73789B704F@humanesoftware.com>

I'm setting up a recurring (cron) task to trigger a method in my  
facebook controller. The point is to find all users that need to  
receive notification emails and send those messages off (every few  
hours, and only if they haven't been sent already... don't want to be  
spammy).

I've got infinite session keys for the users (at least for the ones  
who will be receiving email notifications), but I don't know how to  
create a Facebooker session from those. I tried calling  
set_facebooker_session, but got this error:

     undefined local variable or method `set_facebook_session' for  
FacebookController:Class

So it seems that the script/runner isn't loading the facebooker  
plugin? Which doesn't make much sense, because the facebooker YML  
config file is being processed, and that wouldn't happen if the plugin  
didn't get loaded. What am I missing here? Is there a better way to do  
recurring background notification tasks with facebooker?

Thanks!

Mark

I was able to solve this problem using some code I found in the  
facebooker_mq plugin - http://rubyforge.org/projects/facebooker-mq/

First, I create a session object, which is re-used for each user that  
needs a message sent:

     session = Facebooker::CanvasSession.create(
       ENV[ 'FACEBOOK_API_KEY' ], ENV[ 'FACEBOOK_SECRET_KEY' ] )

Then, for each user being notified, if I've stored an infinite session  
key for them, I secure the session (I only store the session keys if  
they're infinite, so the expires parameter at the end is always 0):

     session.secure_with!( currentUser.infinite_session,  
currentUser.id, 0 )

Once that is done, the session key can be used normally (at least for  
the one call I'm making send_email).

The other thing I did, just to make sure this doesn't mess up "normal"  
operation, was to move the background tasks into their own controller.  
I did not have this new class extend the ApplicationController class,  
because it doesn't render any pages and so isn't a true Rails  
controller. I'm not totally sure, but I think its possible this code  
could be run out of a class in the lib directory (or a model class, if  
that were more appropriate for someone else's app).

If there's a better way to solve this problem, I'd be interested in  
knowing about it.

Thanks!

 Hi guys,

I'm just getting started with facebooker. I got a nasty problem. Every
request redirects to facebook for authentication because i have included

ensure_authenticated_to_facebook and oce the authentication is over I'm
redirected back to the callback URL. The original requested URL is lost. I
suspected of not using DB sessions, but I'm using DB as the session store.



Please help me out. How do I avoid redirects

Hey Ahmad,

There is an example of this on the facebooker_tutorial , starts at step 4.

http://apps.facebook.com/facebooker_tutorial/getting_started/user_adds_application

Basically you can store the last_requested_url in a cookie, and then
have facebook call an action that does the redirect for you. This is
called the POST_ADD_URL on the application settings.

Let me know if it makes sense, if not I will bust it out into its own
lesson on the tutorial.

Hi Dave,

I'm not quite able to get it! I would be really great if you could show a
sample app and I encouter a new problem. On my local machine everything
works great but when i took it to my server at dreamhost, my app breaks with
an error like Filter Chain Halted at ensure_authenticated_to_facebook. Now I
get this dumb error like Facebooker::Session::IncorrectSignature when i
included

ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user


Any idea on this one?

You could add the following to you application controller.

   def application_is_not_installed_by_facebook_user
     redirect_to session[:facebook_session].install_url(:next =>  
request.request_uri)
   end

This tells facebooker you want to redirect to the install url and set  
the next param to the original request when the application is not  
installed. After the user completes the install page facebook will  
redirect to the next param.

Hi Ahmad,

Im guessing you have something wrong with your configuration either on  
facebook or in your facebooker.yml file.

make sure your facebook configs of Canvas Page URL("AhmadTestApp")  
match the canvas_page_name in facebooker.yml (in correct section)
make sure your setup to fbml & website

How are you accessing your application (what url?) - for facebooker  
setup with canvas & fbml you need to be going via http://apps.facebook.com/yourapp

which version of facebooker do you have? which version rails do you  
have?

I put directions to get a basic working version of facebooker going  
here: (they are 1.2.x rails directions, but they should work in 2.x)

http://jnylund.typepad.com/joels_blog/2008/01/facebooker-gett.html

Also Davids tutorial should help as well.

Joel

Through the api
   Is there a way besides getting a friend's name and id - get some personal info (i.e. birthday, age, sex, school etc)

 For example
   for a_friend in @friends
      puts a_friend.name
      puts a_friend.id
    end

  Can this be done?

Message-ID: <644d91f20802271026h3cf55501h6374d13c2264dded@mail.gmail.com>

Hi there.

I am trying to set a preload_fql property for my app
I am using the following code, but I get an error evaluating nil.new from
parser.rb

prop='{"preload_fql" : "{\"friends\" : {\"pattern\": \".*\", \"query\"  :
\"SELECT uid FROM user WHERE uid IN (SELECT uid2 FROM friend WHERE uid1 =
{*user*}) ORDER BY name \"}}"}'
x=@current_facebook_session.admin.set_app_properties({:preload_fql=>prop})

the same preload_fql rule works when i set it with rFacebook so I know thats
not the problem , any suggestions?

Yuval-

You should be able to create a hash instead of manually creating the
json.  Facebooker will automatically convert the hash to json and
submit it.

i.e:

properties = { :preload_fql => { :friends => "pattern", :query => "blah" } }

Can you paste the result of the response so I can see why the parsing
is failing?

Thanks,
Shane

I tried it and I got the same response:

You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
The error occurred while evaluating nil.new

Hi all!

Just curious if that namespace support had been added as discussed in  
a previous thread using this name. I've currently got my facebook  
app's controllers inside a subfolder named "facebook" and my callback  
url looks something like "http://app-domain.com/facebook/". Routes are  
set up appropriately to direct facebook/:action url's to the  
appropriate controller. Unfortunately, my callback url is being  
prepended to my javascript/stylesheet includes in the main (non- 
facebook) part of the app giving me something like this for each  
stylesheet/javascript include:

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches "/facebook// 
stylesheets/groups.css" with {:canvas=>false, :method=>:get})

It's entirely possible that I've just horribly misconfigured  
something. If so, hopefully someone out there has some ideas. :-)

Thanks!

Joel-

I've been meaning to do it using Shawn's patch but didn't get around
to it yet.  It's on my todo list, but if anyone else has a need for it
and does it, it'll be much appreciated.

Does it work if you change it to a form with a button and use :html =>
{ :method => :delete } ?

Hey the other Joel :) Yup, the var name change, and tests have to be
added that covers the change.   Then submit it to Rubyforge.

I think so, can one of the core developers let us know what the state  
of iframe support for facebooker is?

I haven't used iframe before, but my understanding of the way it  
works, is on the first call to the iframe you will get the fb_sig  
stuff, including "fb_sig_in_iframe"=>"1", but once you are in your  
iframe and clicking around, its your app directly, so there will be no  
fb_sig parms passed like in a canvas application. So adding the  
"ensure" filters to every call would definitely hose you up, because  
once you click anylink inside your iframe, you dont have the params to  
make these fitlers happy.

So my suggestion unless there is some built in support is have a  
defined entry point to your application, and add the ensure filters  
just for that entry controller/method, put something in your session  
that knows they have fb installed & authenticated (presumably using  
your built in auth), then use your regular auth stuff for filtering  
all other requests. Make sense?

My understanding of iframe is its great if you have a large complex  
existing application you dont want to rewrite, you can just plug it  
in, but the integration with facebook features is harder (api calls  
are just as easy, but the other stuff is harder). If you have a new  
application, fbml/canvas is more tightly integrated, and you get look  
& feel of facebook app, but learning curve is there to learn fmbl, but  
the facebooker guys make this easier by providing rails helpers to do  
lots of this stuff for you.

I have a large complex existing application but have decided to go the  
fbml/canvas route anyway since it gives a better integration  
experience for the end user, besides if you have a fairly descent  
rails app its really jut building a new view for it.

Hi I am trying to set-up
  My facebook app to use infininite sessions.

  I saw the following link that used the old RFacebook libraries
 http://www.atnan.com/2007/6/18/updating-facebook-profiles-and-feeds-with-rfacebook

 Does anyone know of a sample app or example that does the same thing using facebooker and can provide
 Part of the controller code to do something like it.


n  Thanks, Mike

I haven't looked at the app you mention, but the approach I take is just to
store the session key, if it's infinite, with the user's DB record.  That
way, at any time, whether they're in Facebook or not, I can update their
profile FBML or send messages to the mini-feed etc.  Basically, I just set
up a before_filter on my Facebook controller, and in that it does a few
specific things for our own app, but then calls the following which stores
the key:
  def handle_infinite_session
    if facebook_session.infinite?
      if logged_in_user.facebook_session_key != facebook_session.session_key
        logged_in_user.update_attribute(:facebook_session_key,
facebook_session.session_key)
      end
    else
      logger.warn "Non-infinite session key for Facebook session:\n" +
                  "  Facebook user ID: #{facebook_user.id}\n" +
                  "  Our user ID: #{logged_in_user.id}"
    end
  end

The Facebooker callback (ensure_...) will depend on what you need to do.  I
think in your case, you may need to do the installed one so that you are ok
with getting their session key and storing it.  But, honestly, I don't know
- you need to check the terms of use as to whether you are allowed to do
things with a user session if they don't have your app installed.  But, the
infinite session key, I believe, is independent of your app install (someone
else can likely comment better on that, as I'm still somewhat new to
Facebook and Facebooker and all these issues).
For your second question, that looks about right.  What I have found in my
testing so far, is that I am always getting an infinite session key, and not
even just when the user first installs the app, it seems to always be an
infinite session.  I don't know if this is because I'm interacting via my
Facebook app, or what (the Facebook documentation doesn't imply that it's
always infinite, and further implies, at least to me, that it is not
infinite beyond the workflow of adding your app, that's why I have some of
the logic I have to only update the key if it's infinite and if it's
changed, etc.).  In the end, what you have is good - whereby if you don't
have an infinite, you can use that magic URL they supply to ask the user to
grant one to your app.  This is a bit messy user interface/experience wise,
but it may be what you have to do if you don't have an infinite session key
for whatever reason.

I do something similar in my app. To reinstantiate the session, I  
created a user method as follows:

def restore_facebook_session
  return @facebook_session unless @facebook_session.nil?
  @facebook_session =  
Facebooker::Session.create(Facebooker::Session.api_key,  
Facebooker::Session.secret_key)
  @facebook_session.secure_with!(facebook_session_key, facebook_uid, 0)
  @facebook_session
end

I then use it as follows in the observer I have set up to update the  
user's profile:

def update_profile_fbml(membership)
  user = membership.user

  facebook_session = user.restore_facebook_session
  FacebookPublisher.deliver_profile_update(facebook_session.user, user)
end

Which is called like so:

def after_create(membership)
  update_profile_fbml(membership)
end

def after_destroy(membership)
  update_profile_fbml(membership)
end

Some background. The app has users that can join groups (which are  
associated through memberships). These group memberships are then  
displayed in the user's Facebook profile. So, whenever a membership is  
created or destroyed, their Facebook profile is updated accordingly.

I wasn't sure if there was a standard way of reinstantiating the  
session, so I tinkered around until I got the method shown above. If  
there's a better way to do it, please speak up. :-)
