Hi Facebookers, Is there a helper or suggested approach for presenting validation errors on an fbml form? Something to translate rails error markup to fbml:error markup? thanks Joel

Hey everyone. I have a quick question. Checking out facebooker as a plugin is currently really slow due to the example rails application. Would anyone object if I moved that out of the main plugin directory? Mike -- Mike Mangino http://www.elevatedrails.com

With the new fb_sig_request_method provided by Facebook, I''ve patched shanev''s pseudo-resource routes to generate restful routes, minus some exceptions. The announcement: http://www.facebook.com/developers/message.php#msg_126 Patch is submitted here: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=16105&group_id=4187&atid=16132 Blog entry about it:

Hi I just made some changes / additions for myself in facebooker and posted the patches on rubyforge, e.g.: https://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=18639&group_id=4187&atid=16130 (adds support for fb:dialog FBML tag) Is this the right way to do it? --simon -- http://simonwoodside.com

If you are using facebooker as a plugin, you can now have all your configuration in one place, namely config/facebooker.yml. You can create this file with rake facebooker:setup. It is also generated when you install it as a plugin. It has a similar setup to database.yml with sections for each environment. You can also configure your ssh reverse tunnels. If you are upgrading, make sure to

I''m using render_to_string in an after_filter, which renders a partial that is sent to a web service. Here''s the code: class MyController < ApplicationController after_filter :post_to_webservice def show # show logic end def post_to_webservice stuff = render_to_string :partial => ''stuff'' webservice_post(stuff) end I get a DoubleRenderError in the

Here''s the fix for Facebook apps that specify a controller in their callback URLs. First, set this variable in your environment scripts: ENV[''FACEBOOKER_CALLBACK_PATH''] = ''/controller'' # where controller is the name of your Facebook controller And then patch vendor/plugins/facebooker/lib/facebooker/rails/facebook_url_rewriting.rb as shown in the

Hi, I started with rfacebook but given the recent events figure its best to move over to facebooker. I have: 1.) Installed the facebooker plugin 2.) setup my facebook app (fbml/canvas) 3.) created a method on controller & view to handle initial request 4.) added "ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user" to top off application.rb I am able to get to my landing page

Hey everybody. I''ve been using Facebooker on several projects over the last few months and feel like it is really starting to mature. I''d like to push towards a 1.0 release within the next month. I''d really like everybody''s input on what still needs to be done, as well as some help in wrapping things up. I''ve created a list of things that still

Is ActionController''s redirect_to method broken by Facebooker? When I try to invoke it and execute through apps.facebook.com, I get a blank page returned, response code 200, no redirect. When I try to connect directly to the server (not through apps.fb), I get the infinite recursion error described minutes ago. Are any of you able to use redirect_to successfully, and if so, any ideas

I don''t know if anyone is using this but I just fixed a bunch of bugs, some big ones, and moved this project to RubyForge SVN servers. So you can get it here now: script/plugin install http://facebooker-mq.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/facebooker-mq/ This is working great for me on a couple of projects. Here is the README Updated: 3/14/2008 Purpose: The purpose of FacebookerMQ is to

Hey guys- A few methods useful for testing have been added to trunk: 1) facebook_post For use in controller unit tests and integration tests. Basically, it delegates to the standard "post" method for simulating post requests in a test, but constructs mock fb_sig params and passes them along to the requested action with the rest of the params that the test specifies. 2)

I added a route mapper called facebook_resources. This allows you to create pseudo-resource routes. Since everything is a POST in Facebook, you can''t identify routes using HTTP verbs. Each route is prefixed with its action, except for index. Example: map.facebook_resources :profiles Will give you the following named routes: new_profile POST /profiles/new profiles POST

Facebook added the ''degree'' field to education info. This breaks user.populate because the ''degree'' field doesn''t exist in the education history model. On a side note, if a method calls a dangerous method (ending with !), shouldn''t it be classified as dangerous too? Shane -- http://myfitbuddy.com | http://shanesbrain.net |

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 |

Hey guys- to_json in Rails 1.2 produces json with unquoted keys, which is invalid. Therefore, publish_templatized_action produces invalid json for feed publishing, and you''ll get an error from Facebook. To fix this, put this line in environment.rb: ActiveSupport::JSON.unquote_hash_key_identifiers = false You don''t need to do this if you''re running Rails 2.0. Just a

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,

Hey All, I am wondering if anyone has done any work around sending emails through the API. It looks like facebooker is using part of a deprecated API, Notifications.send used to take an email part. They now have a Notifications.sendEmail call which will take recipients, subject, text part and fbml part. Looking at the code it seems like I need to add a method to the session

Hey guys, Anyone using facebooker on a rails 2.0 site? I noticed at least one deprecated call in facebooker, which i am working on a patch for but didn''t know if anyone else has tried it out on the new build of rails yet. Later, Mark

There is a catch-all rescue at the bottom of rails_integration_test that stops the tests from running if any of the require statements fail. In my case, require File.dirname(__FILE__)+''/../init'' fails and none of the tests get run. When I comment out that line, there are a couple of failures relating to redirection.
