similar to: Getting at the FB response XML in Facebooker

May seem strange but I''ve gotten a couple requests from clients [2 out of 4] abt this.. generally the requirement is that they want to serve up slightly different content but from more or less the same app.. I dug into init.rb and determined that its seems likely with some rearranging of facebooker.yml config - is there anything else of the top of anybody''s head that might be an

I just wanted to contribute a quick-start page with details about how to get the Facebook session (for internal apps), how to get user info, set profile FBML, post to the news feed, etc. I could even send this as text, or I can add a page using the Radiant CMS if it''s not too cumbersome. I am also working with Dave Clements to augment the configuration options to make it easier for

For anyone using both and encountering trouble with stylesheets (specifically, the paths being incorrect in production mode)... Removing facebooker solves the issue. But I bet you don''t want to do that, eh? So, simply setting ActionController::Base.asset_host = '''' also works like butter. I''m not 100% clear on why asset_host has anything to do with

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

Hello Eveyone, I am new here, and am have no idea how to setup routes in the routes.rb file while using fbml. The regular map.resources :gifts map.resources :wishlists map.resources :invitations map.resources :comments does not work. This tutorial http://rfacebook.wordpress.com/2008/02/04/quickstartfacebooker/ says to create a map.root, such as the one mentioned "map.root

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

So I have an existing app & facebook app in same rails application, for now I have decided to go the route of creating a controller for facebook stuff (called FaceController). (setup is canvas, fbml) So I have: facebook config http://myurl:myport/face/ My controllers name is face, so I dont even need a manual route, for the landing page it works like a charm. but, when I try to make

Hey there! I would like the discussion to continue on how facebooker handles routes, as it appears that there is an unsolved issue. Mike, I read your recent reply involving setting facebook''s callback_path to the root of the rails app, and adding a route to catch all calls to the app root where canvas => true. I just want to point out this is counterintuitive to some folks and

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 just went through and cleaned out most of the bugs and patches. I also added a facebooker.js file that implements enough of prototype to do $() and link_to_remote with :update and remote_form_for with :update Let me know if you run into any issues with it.

Facebooker URL Rewriter stuff overloads ActionController::AbstractRequest.relative_url_root, causing a conflict with the plugin file_column and possibly other utilities. file_column constructs image URLs using the server host and relative_url_root This is not related to the sandbox patch I added to the rewriter. Facebooker overloaded relative_url_root before I touched it. I''ve

Hey all, I have a patch that fixes a problem I am having with IFramed pages in rails 2.0. I am relying on the session being retrieved via fb_sig_session_key. I am looking for the test code that tests this functionality but I can''t seem to find it. So you on the list today Chad, gotta pointer for me? Thanks, I want to get a test in for this fix, Dave

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

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

I think I must be missing something obvious on this one, but I can''t get past the initial "ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user" in a rails app that I''m trying to put together. I''m running on edge rails with the latest Facebooker as a plugin. I''ve tried adding my settings to the environment configs and recently I tried the new yaml

Is anyone planning on using Facebook Connect? I have the implementation that I think covers the user registration. I''m going to work on the UI stuff as well but would love to get some feedback on it. Mike -- Mike Mangino http://www.elevatedrails.com

I was hoping to announce this a month ago, but some legal wrangling took longer than expected. Developing Facebook Platform Applications with Rails is now available in Beta at http://www.pragprog.com/titles/mmfacer It walks you through creating a Facebook application with Facebooker, all the way from setup to handling large number of users. Thank all of you for asking questions on this

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, I am using Rails 2.1. I was wondering if there is a preference between using gem or script/plugin to install facebooker. Latest revision on svn (225) seems to be missing an "end" in lib/facebooker/models/user.rb (line 218). Thanks, Ram -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

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.
