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 |

Hey guys- I started a module for Rails test helpers. The first one is assert_fb_redirect. This is like Rails'' assert_redirect, but works for the fb:redirect FBML tag. Any ideas for more? I was thinking about a version of assert_select that works with Facebook. assert_select is based on CSS selectors, which won''t work with Facebook since the use of colons (:) in search

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,

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

Right now I''m working on adding tests to a method that looks like this: def get_via_redirect(path, args={}) get path, args follow_redirect! while redirect? status end So, I want to confirm that get is called and that status is returned but I also want to see that when the value of redirect? effects how many times follow_redirect is called. Is there

Hi all I want to do some functional testing. I stumbled over the method follow_redirect!() somewhere, but evidently this doesn''t seem to exist in my Rails version (1.2.5 or so)?! Then I tried follow_redirect() (without the exclamation mark), and I get the following error: TypeError: can''t convert Symbol into String What am I doing wrong? Thanks for help :-) Josh -- Posted via

I''m running integration tests on Rails 1.1/Ruby 1.8.4/Windows XP and have found that any call to follow_redirect! (directly or through [get|post]_via_redirect) causes rake to abort (see command line output below). Has anyone else seen this error, or know what might be the trouble? Thanks!

I?m using the new 1.1 integration test facility? I?m trying to write a test that sees if a controller redirects to the correct place and preserves the query string. Here?s the code: class LoginRedirectTest < ActionController::IntegrationTest def test_non_admin_auth request_uri = "/datafeed/event/report?blah=blah" get(request_uri) follow_redirect!

I''ve got an interesting (possibly) problem right now between autotest and rails integration tests. There are a few things to preface this with. Works fine: rake test rake test:integration Blows up: autotest Autotest is correctly determining rails and runs tests just fine. One part of the behavior is that if I save a change in just the integration test (even hitting cmd+s to trigger a

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.

Hi All, I am working on a rails app that has facebook and non-facebook portions and since facebooker seems to want to resolve to the default route of "/" i''ve written a little before filter that seems to make these two exist OK. def is_facebook_request? redirect_to(params.merge({ :controller => ''facebook_accounts'' })) and return false if

I have been checking the params for params[:fb_sig] to detect if the client is in the Facebook canvas, but those don''t work at the beginning of a controller when you''re calling before_filters. I have a require_login in the before_filter, but I want to skip it if the user is from Facebook. So are there any other ways to check that the client is coming from the canvas?

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 list, Not sure if this is helpful for anyone but I am working on a Facebook project where I need bypass the new CSRF protection (built into Rails 2.0) under certain conditions. However, since my project works outside of Facebook I don?t want to disable the CSRF protection from requests made outside of Facebook. Here is a small extension i wrote for the ForgeryProtection module.

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

If a user that has not yet signed up for Facebook attempts to visit an application page facebook presents them with a registration form. After this form is completed, the application is automatically added to the user''s account and Facebook displays the following message: Welcome George Tesster! Your account has been created. [application] has been added to your account. Facebook also
