similar to: Ajax and facebooker

So if I am using fbml,canvas & facebooker, can I do ajax calls? if so how? From reading it seems they support some sort of mock ajax, but I don''t really understand, can somone explain to me? If I cant do ajax, can I still do javascript? Can I use 3rd party libs like prototype & scriptaculous? thanks Joel

Hi all, I wanted to test requests from internal facebook apps, so I''ve been mimicking FBML requests from facebook in my tests using the following: def test_can_facebook_internal_app_login fb_login_as :facebooker num_of_members = Member.count facebook_request :get, :home assert_response :success assert_equal num_of_members, Member.count

Hi there, I''ve configured my post-remove URL (which has to be directly to my site, not an apps.facebook.com URL) and now I''m trying to figure out how to handle this. It''s poorly documented here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Post-Remove_URL It seems as though support for this is currently not yet in Facebooker. In order to get it to work, it

Hey, I am wondering if anyone has run into this issue before. I can''t seem to figure out what Facebook is doing. I have an application that only requires Facebook Authentication, the user doesn''t need to "add" the app. So at the top of my main controller I have class GettingStartedController < ApplicationController ensure_authenticated_to_facebook ......

Normally, in a rails app, all one would have to do is call set_facebook_session, or the ensure_* filters to get a valid session. I''ve been looking through the sessions code to figure out how to get a valid session for desktop applications (or unit tests)--basically outside of rails controller. As far as I can ascertain, you should just be able to do this: require

I just encountered a bug that caused the links in my partials to be generated as non-canvas routes when the partial was loaded via ajax. This bug is due to facebooker url rewriting checking for fb_sig_in_canvas to determine if the application is running in or outside a canvas, and fb_sig_in_canvas is not sent for ajax requests. My hacked together patch diff is below, sorry I didn''t have

A few weeks ago I posted an FBJS library that I had been working on. I have now updated that library to be fully compatible with Facebooker and created a publicity accessible fork for people to try it out. I did attempt to maintain backwards compatability, but I strongly recommend switching to the new methods. The fork is located here: http://github.com/gdeglin/facebooker/ A helper has been

Hey All, I think I found a bug but I would be suprised since it would cause major problems. We setup the asset_host in init.rb with: if File.exist?(facebook_config) FACEBOOKER = YAML.load_file(facebook_config)[RAILS_ENV] ENV[''FACEBOOK_API_KEY''] = FACEBOOKER[''api_key''] ENV[''FACEBOOK_SECRET_KEY''] =

Had a user add our app to a Facebook Page, http://www.facebook.com/business/?pages. Facebook Pages act like users but are more for businesses and Bands. It looks like the current Facebooker API doesn''t currently support setting the Profile FBML for a Page. The current code for setting the proflie is this: def profile_fbml=(markup)

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

Apologies for not chaning the subject line. :( Hi all, I wanted to test requests from internal facebook apps, so I''ve been mimicking FBML requests from facebook in my tests using the following: def test_can_facebook_internal_app_login fb_login_as :facebooker num_of_members = Member.count facebook_request :get, :home assert_response :success assert_equal

I wrote an fbjs library to help speed up development of some of my applications. I plan to have some sort of "official" release with a blog entry and github repository at some point, but I thought you guys might want to have it earlier. It''s still a work in progress. I''ve been using every method at least once in my application but it''s still possible there is

Hello, May I introduce myself - I''m the publisher of the new ruby API for facebook site (for now titled rfacebook questions & answers) - and way back I''ve published the Java Web Start F.A.Q (*1). Anyways, if you''re using the Facebooker gem I invite you to let us know about your Facebook app and if you''re sign-on I will follow-up with sending you four

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

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

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

I''m working with Matt [rfacebook] on a ''Migration to Facebooker'' tag that essentially sets the stage [with backward compatibility] for a low-risk transition to Facebooker but had a quick question - doesn''t look like it possible to get at the raw XML from Session/Service/etc - is that a correct or perhaps I missed something? We don''t intend to recreate

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 installed the Facebooker plugin and upon placing it on a staging server, I keep running into stack level too deep errors. It seems to stem from Facebooker using alias_method_chain to override some of the ActionController methods. I believe it''s getting loaded twice causing confusion. I''ve tried various methods include wrapping a unless respond_to?(:method) around the

I''ve been spiking on a Facebook application so far just to learn the Facebook(er) API, but I''d prefer to test drive. It seems to me (with my limited knowledge) that what''s needed is some sort of mocking framework at the network level. I''m thinking of creating a set of YAML files similar to fixtures that represent the remote Facebook state, then overriding
