Facebook connect example

[raulvejar]

Includes code example of how to use Facebook connect to integrate facebook into a rhodes app by using a redirect service to deal with Rhode's dynamic ports and Facebook requirements that redirect urls are defined in the configuration of the facebook app

[mull]

This code does not work anymore, at least I'm getting errors. Perhaps it needs to be updated?

[raulvejar]

It still works (just checked it). Of course you would have to update the rakefile and build.yml if you are using the latest version of Rhodes framework. What problem are you getting?

[mull]

That must be the problem then, I'm using the latest version of Rhodes. After logging in to facebook I just get a blank black page. Oh and after clicking the button "check if like..." I get a quick flash of "error loading page". Perhaps this is all related to the rakefile & build.yml. Thanks for the quick response!

[raulvejar]

Mmm... from your description it sounds like it is something else (if it was a rakefile/build problem you wouldn't be able to launch the app)... what platform/emulator are you using to test?

[mull]

I used android through rhosimulator, only thing I have working at the moment because of some javac issues.

[raulvejar]

Mac or Windows? I'm testing it in windows and it works fine under those settings... From your description it sounds like a problem between the facebook authorization dialog and the browser inside your rhosimulator. Have you managed to authorize the app? Do you see a facebook login dialog of some sort?

[mull]

Yep I got logged in & authorized the app. I am running from Mac.

Try deauthorizing the app from your facebook account settings and run the demo again (sometimes facebook gets messed up that way)

I'll try running the demo on my mac and see if it is having any issues. BTW: I'm running Rhodes 3.2.3, it shouldn't make a difference though...

[mull]

Same thing. I'm running 3.3.2. "Hopefully" you'll run into the same issues when you run it on your Mac. We'll see. :)

I have the same issue on 3.3.3. I get the very quick page "error loading page". Anyone knows how to fix it? Except this issue everything works fine.

[geo1004]

Found the answer... By using rel="external" on your link you bypass the AJAX part of the loading -- this means the page loads, but it's not injected into the DOM. Sorry for the newbie question!

[raulvejar]

This code was written for the old jqtouch, keep that in mind when copyin and pasting the view code

[adbeel92]

I have a problem... After logging, it shows website of Facebook.. i though it should show a Fb permissions and then go back -> app.. with a message...

def facebook_check_callback @message = nil if @params['entered'].to_s == 'true' @message = "You really like Rhomobile! Rock on!" else @message = "You don't like Rhomobile! Why?" end end

Connect Fb -> Presentation before login -> login -> Website (Facebook) ¿?

I think it's about " redirect_uri " and localhost app.. because its a mobile app...

[raulvejar]

Yes, it should go back to the app, it's built to work that way and with a mobile app in mind so it's not because of that. It should show the facebook log in prompt, then the permissions prompt and then go back to the app

The example was written with jqtouch in mind, if you are using jquery mobile you should add rel="external" on your link you bypass the AJAX part of the loading

I just add rel="external" on the link:

a href="<%= url_for :action => :connect_to_facebook %>" rel="external"> Connect </a

This link goes to login... But afeter logging, i shows the same: website of Facebook

I think it's about localhost app

Im using emulator Android 2.1. Rhodes 3.3.2 Ruby 1.9.2

[raulvejar]

what url are you navigating to? Use the log console to figure out the exact url you are using

RUN! I used my appId... but when I write your appId... Work!

So.. my configuration is bad. Can you tell me what do you do in developers.facebook.com, please?

[raulvejar]

I'm attaching 2 screens with the settings for the rhomobile like app.

BTW: I speak Spanish, if that is your first language... [image: Inline image 1]

ok gracias.

[adbeel92]

Me decia del url el cual navega mi app, no? Qué pongo en la consola para averiguar el URL exacto que estoy utilizando

[raulvejar]

Tienes que poner el url del servicio de redireccion que estas usando, en el caso del app de demostracion que usa el sample: http://redirect.me

[cpinan]

Hola como están, bueno a mi si me corre sin problema pero no arranca en el aplicativo de FB sino en una ventana externa. Hay forma de ejecutarlo en el app de FB? Saludos.

[danytoz]

Thank you guys, rel="external". Fixed it for me
