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

I''m working on the ability to share a single session between Facebook and Non-Facebook requests. Right now, to setup a shared session, you create a link like: <%= link_to "Non-Facebook view",leaders_url(facebook_session_parameters.merge(:canvas=>false))%> The facebook_session_parameters includes all of the necessary info. Is this okay, or would it be better as

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

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.

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''ve got some changes queued up that I want to run by everyone before I commit. First, I''ve added a filter that sets the :format variable to "fbml" when you are in the canvas view. That means with edge rails you can use index.fbml.erb for facebook and index.html.erb for non facebook requests and the right thing will happen. This is important for doing things

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

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:

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

Hi there, I''m wrapping my head around Facebooker to try and build some integration points between an existing ROR application and facebook. I''ve managed to get FB talking to my app but when I tried to access my ROR app directly I noticed that all requests for images, CSS, and JS files were being made through my callback_url. Commenting out the following line from

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 All- I am still trying to figure out the best way to handle facebook session for my users. Here is my current flow: in my "external accounts controller" 1) before_filter :ensure_authenticated_to_facebook, :only =&gt; [:authenticate_facebook, :edit_facebook] 2) when the user links into facebook, facebooker authenticates and redirects back to my application 3) i detect the

I am requesting that we change the paths that absolutely point to the facebook URL. In the PHP client there is a method in the facebook.php file called get_facebook_url() so this is easy to change there. One reason for this: Ringside Networks is a drop in replacement for Facebook that can be used for localhost development and eventually an abstraction for most social networks - it mimics the

Hi all, I''ve been looking at the performance of my fb app and one glaring issue seems to be with the parsing speed of rexml in processing the results. Has anyone looked into porting the facebooker parser from rexml to libxml? If not, any reason I shouldn''t try? Thanks!

Hello, I am running into issues using *_path() and *_url() helpers the Facebooker Publisher framework. I encounter the following error when using these helpers while *inside of a partial*: undefined method `default_url_options'' for ActionView::Base:Class I''ve seen a few other people speak about this issue, yet I haven''t seen any resolution on the mailing list yet.

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

In my controllers I have a respond_to block for both fbml and fbjs. I created the fbjs mime type in environment.rb: Mime::Type.register "application/javascript", :fbjs However, even if I specify fbjs in a parameter name format during AJAX post requests, it is being overwritten by Rails or Facebooker as FBML. I confirmed this by placing logger.debug params[:format] immediately before

I just committed a patch from David Clements to fix session sharing between Facebook and Non-Facebook requests. I also cleaned up some of the code so that you won''t get exceptions raised for InvalidSignatures on non-Facebook requests. Mike -- Mike Mangino http://www.elevatedrails.com

As per my last email, I''m generating links to our app outside of Facebook. Sorry for the onslaught of emails on this. I do link generation in Publisher based code as well. What I''m finding is that the Facebooker UrlRewriter doesn''t get used in Publisher. This makes sense if we assume that Publisher can be used outside of an HTTP request, and things like the

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
