Tersus: Re: facebook connect

Re: facebook connectDate: Apr 19, 2009Steve,Please try the attached application

FacebookCoonectTest.zip , which features authentication with Facebook Connect and a query to Facebook to get the user's list of friends.I've tested it on IE7, Firefox 3.0.8 & Safari 4 (beta)Before you can use your own copy of the application, do the following:

Make sure you have created a Facebook application with Connect URL http://localhost:8080/FacebookConnectTest

Open the model and replace the values of the 2 constants at the top level with the API Key and Secret parameters of your own.

You can also try a hosted version I've uploaded: http://yb.tersus.com/FacebookConnect The implementation consisted of the following:

Overriding the default welcome page so that the facebook namespace is recognized and the facebook script is loaded

Adding the facebook cross domain communication page to the application

Modeling the facebook login button using HTML Tag with html.tag=fb:login-button

Modeling an <On FB Login> that checks the siganture of the facebook session

Creating a Javascript function (tersus.fbinit(API_Key)) that initializes facebook and calls <On FB Init> when the session is ready

Creating a plugin that makes FQL queries and modeling one instance of it that retrieves the current user's list of friends. Note that the plugin doesn't have a special Icon yet, so the only thing that distinguishes it from a regular action is the 'javascript.constructor' property.

Debugging some weird collision between Facebook and Tersus
