Facebook Graph API Consumer in PHP

==================================

.. image:: https://travis-ci.org/nixilla/facebook-api-consumer.png?branch=master

Facebook Graph API Consumer in namespaced, easy to test PHP, continuously integrated with Travis CI.

Installation

------------

The easiest way - via packagist_ and composer_:

.. _packagist: https://packagist.org/packages/nixilla/facebook-api-consumer

.. _composer: http://getcomposer.org/

.. code-block:: json

    {

        "require": {

            "nixilla/facebook-api-consumer": "~0.1"

        }

    }

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.

.. _`kriswallsmith/buzz`: https://packagist.org/packages/kriswallsmith/buzz

For example:

.. code-block:: php

    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:

.. code-block:: php

    fromArray(json_decode($json_string, true));

            return $user;

        }

    }

.. code-block:: php

    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);

        }

    }
