[Lift] Re: Facebook Application
FYI, this is now in master.
The client defaults to XML (Node), but if you want to use JSON you can
create a client like this:
def jsonClient(session:FacebookSession) = new FacebookClient[JValue]
(session, is => {
JsonParser.parse(new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)))
}, FacebookFormat.json)
for (client <- FacebookConnect.session.map(jsonClient)){
val jsonUser = client !? GetUser
}

Re: [Lift] Re: Facebook Application
With connect you can also get a client:
for (client <- FacebookConnect.client){
client !? ...
}

[Lift] Re: Facebook Application
Hi,
I'll definitely take a look. But I think FB connect is not applicable
for our use..
Here a simple version of the use:
- We have a Lift application providing a RESTfull JSON API for our
clients. Through that API a client application can share a photo to
Facebook
- We have a Web client for the API provided by the Lift server looming
on a different machine. That client does the FB login in order to get
a token for the user.
- That token is sent to the Lift server which uses it to create a new
client (val client = FacebookClient.fromAuthToken(authToken).get)
- When the user shares a photo through our API that fb client is used
to upload the photo to Facebook

Re: [Lift] Re: Facebook Application
Hi All,
I just created issue #336 to provide a Facebook Connect helper and example
application. You can take a look at what I've got here:
http://github.com/dpp/liftweb/commit/3b6686201e3b7f22100e52a04734fd4ccf67910b
Leo, if you're trying to use fb connect, hopefully this will help you out (I
would suggest using connect rather than redirecting to FB)
Will push out to master pending your comments and RB.

[Lift] Re: Facebook Application
Hi,
I have only tried to do a couple of things with the Facebook module
(I'm using 2.0-M1) and I have gotten some of the stuff to actually
work :)
Photo upload would be something like this:
import java.io.File
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils
import net.liftweb.ext_api.facebook._
import scala.xml._
FacebookRestApi.apiKey = "your api key"
FacebookRestApi.secret = "secret"
// Get a user to login to Facebook with a link like
http://www.facebook.com/login.php?v=1.0&api_key="your api key"
// If you mess around with the Facebook settings you will get FB to
// redirect the user back to your app with a token as a query param
val authToken = "as described previously"
val client = FacebookClient.fromAuthToken(authToken).get
val photo = new File(...)
val bytes = FileUtils.readFileToByteArray(photo)
val resp = client !? UploadPhoto("test.jpg", "jpg", bytes)
val photoUrl = (resp \\ "link").text
Getting a list of friends:
val resp = client !? GetFriends()
Some real documentation and examples sure would be nice!
