Informations about the package facebook-api-consumer

Installation

"require": {

What does it do?
This library is a wrapper around Facebook Graph API plus it provides some utils method often used in Facebook integrated applications.
How does it do it?
This library provides Facebook\\Consumer` class which is a higher level wrapper around `kriswallsmith/buzz library. You just specify what end point you're interested in and it'll pull the information for you.
For example:
<?php
require_once './vendor/autoload.php';
$client = new Buzz\Browser(new Buzz\Client\Curl());
$consumer = new Facebook\Consumer($client);
$consumer->setAccessToken('ACCESS_TOKEN_STRING');
$result = $consumer->call('/me/feed');
By default the `Facebook\\Consumer` converts the json output from Facebook API to PHP array. It does it using `Facebook\\DefaultConverter` class.
However you can change this behaviour by injecting your custom converter. All you need to do is to create you converter class that implements `Facebook\\Converter` interface and inject into `Facebook\\Consumer`.
For example if you are using Symfony 2 and have `AcmeDemoBundle:User` class and you want `Facebook\\Consumer` to output that class, you need to:
<?php
# src/Acme/DemoBundle/Converter/UserConverter.php
namespace Acme\DemoBundle\Converter;
use Facebook\Converter;
use Acme\DemoBundle\Entity\User;
class UserConverter implements Converter
{
public function convert($json_string)
{
// do whatever you need to do, for example
$user = new User()
$user->fromArray(json_decode($json_string, true));
return $user;
}
}
<?php
# src/Acme/DemoBundle/Controller/UserController.php
namespace Acme\DemoBundle\Converter;
use Acme\DemoBundle\Converter\UserConverter;
class UserController extends Controller
{
public function newAction(Request $request)
{
$consumer = $this->container->get('facebook.consumer');
$consumer->setAccessToken($this->container->get('security.context')->getToken()->getAccessToken());
$consumer->setConverter('/me', new UserConverter());
$user = $consumer->call('/me');
// you can now use it for forms
$form = $this->createForm(new UserType(), $user);
}
}
