Friends.getAppUsers Bug (REST)

[mhuggins]

On line 660 of mini_fb.rb (v1.1.5), within the MiniFB::fetch method, you check if the result is an array and immediately attempt to utilize Hashie to convert its structure. Unfortunately, the REST call to friends.getAppUsers returns an array of Facebook user ID's, which this method incorrectly attempts to convert (and ultimately has an error occur in Hashie). Instead, the raw array data provided by friends.getAppUsers should be returned to the calling method.

if res_hash.is_a? Array # fql  return this
    res_hash.collect! { |x| Hashie::Mash.new(x) }
else
    res_hash = Hashie::Mash.new(res_hash)
end

I see, so perhaps it should be doing this instead:

if res_hash.is_a? Array # fql  return this
    res_hash.collect! { |x| x.is_a?(Hash) ? Hashie::Mash.new(x) : x }
else
    res_hash = Hashie::Mash.new(res_hash)
end

Something along those lines?

That seems like a valid workaround. Since I wasn't using FQL, I temporarily edited the same line to just return x, so that solution seems like it would work.
