oauth2_facebook_login

Gets OAuth2 access token from Facebook automatically from a webdriver, using requests_oauthlib

I developed this when I found that I needed to get data from Facebook API automatically, but there was always the human entry for OAuth2 flow. This library takes care of that with your selected webdriver

Installation

pip3 install --user oauth2_facebook_login

Usage

With Default Chrome Webdriver

First, setup Chrome Webdriver so that it is in PATH, which can be done in terminal

export PATH=$PATH:/home/username/Downloads/chromedriver

Then in Python, run

from oauth2_facebook_login import get_access_token

auth = get_access_token(
    email = "user@email.com",
    password = "password",
    client_id="1234567",
    client_secret="a1b2c3d4e5",
    scope = [
            "pages_show_list",
            "manage_pages",
            "pages_manage_instant_articles",
            "pages_manage_cta",
            "ads_management",
            "business_management"
            ]
    )

auth.access_token # Facebook access token

With Custom Webdriver

from oauth2_facebook_login import get_access_token
from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome("/home/username/Downloads/chromedriver")

auth = get_access_token(
    email = "user@email.com",
    password = "password",
    client_id="1234567",
    client_secret="a1b2c3d4e5",
    scope = [
            "pages_show_list",
            "manage_pages",
            "pages_manage_instant_articles",
            "pages_manage_cta",
            "ads_management",
            "business_management"
            ],
    driver = driver
    )

auth.access_token # Facebook access token

With Custom Webdriver Headlessly

from oauth2_facebook_login import get_access_token
from selenium import webdriver

chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument('headless')
chrome_options.add_argument('no-sandbox')

driver = webdriver.Chrome("/home/username/Downloads/chromedriver", chrome_options = chrome_options)

auth = get_access_token(
    email = "user@email.com",
    password = "password",
    client_id="1234567",
    client_secret="a1b2c3d4e5",
    scope = [
            "pages_show_list",
            "manage_pages",
            "pages_manage_instant_articles",
            "pages_manage_cta",
            "ads_management",
            "business_management"
            ],
    driver = driver
    )

auth.access_token # Facebook access token
