...ring what the appropriate way to use the applicationproperties.rb model was. I was hoping to query it to find out which users are developers for my app and then grant special permissions to them ... I tried creating something like this: class ApplicationProperties < ActiveRecord::Base def facebook_session @facebook_session ||= returning Facebooker::Session.create do |session| session.secure_with!(session_key,User.find(:first).facebook_id,1.hour.from_now) end end end but that doesn''t seem to help, i.e. the facebook session thing is specific to the user model .......

not sure if my prior message went through, given that I sent before confirming my membership to the list. Is anyone concerned with the practice of saving the entire fb session object in the session hash? I''m likely going to blow away all the "@var |= " statements and just use the api calls when I need to access data, since my understanding is that it''s bad

Hello, I''m new to facebooker and ruby, so not sure if the issue I am having is due to my misunderstanding or a bug in facebooker plugin. Here is what I have: def show @current_user ||= facebook_session.user @member ||= params[:id].to_s==@current_user.id.to_s ? @current_user : Facebooker::User.new(params[:id]) #for each of current_user''s friends, check if they are friends with the member and return an array of only the mutual friends @mutual_friends = [] #initializing array t...

...t that not only contains an auth_key but also contains a valid session key. Occasionally I am seeing that Facebook server is occasionally sending a connection reset during the auth key authentication method, this caused me to notice that secure_with_token is given precedence in the code: def set_facebook_session returning session_set = session_already_secured? || secure_with_token! || secure_with_facebook_params! do if session_set capture_facebook_friends_if_available!

Hi All, I''m having horrible problems with this exception, which seems to happen as soon as I access the session object. Does anyone know what the path is to recover from this? This post looked to be the most promising: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/facebooker-talk/2007-December/000047.html And I followed all of the steps except switching my session store, and modifying the default

Hey everyone. I''ve got a best practices question. How are you guys rendering newsfeeds? We have a couple of apps where we send newsfeed items from a backend process. As such, we aren''t in the context of a controller and can''t use the rails template rendering. We''ve tried about 3 different ways to make that bearable, but aren''t having much

I just pushed my facebook app up to 2.0.1 and noticed that I am now getting these errors: ActionView::TemplateError (Session key invalid or no longer valid) on line #3 of users/index.fbml.erb: It appears that I get the facebook_session object back but when i introspect and try and get the user''s name or something i get the session error. Has anyone else had these problems? Later, Mark

Hi facebooker-ers, It looks to me like facebooker does not currently support iframe facebook apps - or am I missing something? My first problem as I understand it is as follows - When you are logged into facebook, and access a facebook application, facebook tacks on a whole lot of extra fb_sig parameters to the request (including fb_sig_user) that the application can then validate to

The profile picture album is treated as a special album by Facebok and is not returned in the normal get photo albums API call. A bunch of special operations have to be performed to get the aid for the profile picture album. I added a method to User to get the profile pics. Use as follows: facebook_session.user.profile_photos # returns Photo objects Enjoy, Shane -- http://myfitbuddy.com | http://shanesbrain.net | http://crimsonjet.com

I have an attribute on my user model called friends, is it possible to merge the session[:facebook_session].user.friends_with_this_app with the friends attribute? Optimally I could call @user.friends and it would return the standalone app''s friends and the Facebook friends who have the app.
