Hi guys, I am new to this list and thought i''d say hello. I am using facebooker on a new project and so far I am really pleased with it. I saw that some users are having woes with the url_rewriter breaking urls for paths outside of the facebook canvas (i.e. your site supports both facebook and non-facebook users). I don''t have a prefect answer for this but I wrote a plugin called facebooker_extensions which essentially reverts this change until I figure out a way to smartly format the url from either a facebook or nonfacebook request. I also started to extend the test_helper with more example xml responses. http://plugins.svn.locusfoc.us/browser/trunk/facebooker_extensions/ init.rb If someone figures out the routing problems let me know I am eager to tie it back into my app. Later, Mark -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Can you give us a little more information about the url_rewriter breakage? Canvas urls should now link to canvas urls, and non-canvas urls should no longer include the canvas path. You use the :canvas=>true or :canvas=>false to override this behavior. Mike On Dec 4, 2007, at 3:48 PM, Heavy Sixer wrote:> Hi guys, > I am new to this list and thought i''d say hello.

Hey Mike, Thanks for the reply, here is what I can tell you about my experience with the routing issues so far: 1. I am trying to deploy a facebook app inside an existing application, whereby my facebook app is only accessed from one controller and the rest of the app behaves as normal. 2. I am running rails 1.2.3 and when the plugin is installed and I run the plugin out of the box it overwrites all of my relative paths for my rails application not just the controller i want to use as my facebook controller. For example, all my CSS and Javascript URLS are prepended with the facebooker relative url root in my example it is: ENV[''FACEBOOKER_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT''] = ''facebook_accounts'' which produces urls like this: <script src="http://localhost:3000/facebook_accounts/javascripts/ prototype.js?1196361503" type="text/javascript"></script> which I of-course do not want :-) This may be happening because I do not completely understand how I "should" be using this plugin. If you see anything amiss in my approach let me know! Later, Mark On Dec 5, 2007, at 12:29 PM, Mike Mangino wrote:> Can you give us a little more information about the url_rewriter > breakage?

Are you installing facebooker as a plugin or as a gem? This should just work if you install it as a plugin. If it doesn''t, it''s a bug I need to fix.

Hi Mike,
Sure thing here is how you can recreate it:
1. Create a stub application
MOS6507:~/Desktop markdaggett$ rails facebooker_test
2. Install the plugin
MOS6507:~/Desktop/facebooker_test markdaggett$ ruby script/plugin
install http://facebooker.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/facebooker/
3. Create a default resource
MOS6507:~/Desktop/facebooker_test markdaggett$ ruby script/generate
resource users
4. Add the environment params
ENV[''FACEBOOKER_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT''] =
''canvas_path''
ENV[''FACEBOOK_API_KEY''] = ''123456''
ENV[''FACEBOOK_SECRET_KEY''] = ''654321''
5. Create a default application.rhtml layout
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"
lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
<title></title>
<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults -%>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrap">
<%= yield %>
</div>
</body>
</html>
6. Start the server and navigate to the url in question:
http://localhost:3000/users
it will produce incorrect relative paths for the layout:
<script src="/canvas_path/javascripts/prototype.js?1196956262"
type="text/javascript"></script>
In contrast to what I claimed earlier that the link_tos and urls_for
were being overridden it appears that the only problem I am actually
having is with the scripts being looked for in the wrong place, so it
may not be a routing issue per-say.
Let me know if that is helpful at all or if I am just
misunderstanding how to use the plugin.
Best,
Mark

Can you try the latest version of facebooker? It should be fixed for all of the asset tags now.
