wil / erlang_facebook forked from ngerakines/erlang_facebook

erlang_facebook is a small, lightweight Facebook Platform API client library.

1> [ApiKey, Secret] = ["aassdd112233", "thisisasecret"].
["aassdd112233", "thisisasecret"].
2> erlang_facebook:custom(ApiKey, Secret, "facebook.users.hasAppPermission", [{"uid", "500025891"}, {"ext_perm", "offline_access"}]).
[true]

This library is developed and updated as needed. To request a feature or if you found a bug, please contact me through GitHub (account is ngerakines) or email me at nick+erlang_facebook@gerakines.net.

Supported Facebook API Methods

Facebook API methods map to module functions directly. The list of supported methods can be obtained by looking at the exported functions as per erlang_facebook:module_info/0.

To use a method that is not defined the erlang_facebook:custom/4 function can be used. When passing the function parameters be sure to include a method tuple naming the API method as well as any additional arguments that may be required.

Dependancies

This module uses the mochijson2 library for encoding and decoding requests and responses to and from the Facebook Platform.
