Facebook open graph api implementation using the Django web framework in python

Overview

Django Facebook by Thierry Schellenbach (mellowmorning.com)

https://secure.travis-ci.org/tschellenbach/Django-facebook.png?branch=master https://pypip.in/d/django-facebook/badge.png

Status

Django and Facebook are both rapidly changing at the moment. Meanwhile, I'm caught up in a startup and don't have much spare time. The library needs a good round of testing against the latest python, django and facebook graph API. Contributions are strongly appreciated. Seriously, give github a try, fork and get started :)

News

  • django-facebook will be dropping support for django < 1.8 since django only supports versions 1.8 and above.

Demo & About

Django Facebook enables your users to easily register using the Facebook API. It converts the Facebook user data and creates regular User and Profile objects. This makes it easy to integrate with your existing Django application.

After registration Django Facebook gives you access to user's graph. Allowing for applications such as:

  • Open graph/ Timeline functionality
  • Seamless personalization
  • Inviting friends
  • Finding friends
  • Posting to a users profile

Updates and tutorials can be found on my blog mellowmorning

Features

  • Access the Facebook API, from:
    • Your website (Using javascript OAuth)
    • Facebook canvas pages (For building facebook applications)
    • Mobile (Or any other flow giving you a valid access token)
  • Django User Registration (Convert Facebook user data into a user model)
  • Store likes, friends and user data locally.
  • Facebook FQL access
  • OAuth 2.0 compliant
  • Automated reauthentication (For expired tokens)
  • Includes Open Facebook (stable and tested Python client to the graph API)

Contributing and Running tests

Tests are run from within the example project. You can run them yourself as follows:

install from git

facebook_example/manage.py test django_facebook

Vagrant

A vagrant development setup is included in the GIT repo. Assuming you have vagrant installed, simply type the following in your shell:

# First get a fresh Django-Facebook checkout
git clone [email protected]:tschellenbach/Django-facebook.git django-facebook

# Go to the directory:
cd django-facebook

# Time to start Vagrant (grab a cup of coffee after this command, it'll take a while) :)
vagrant up; vagrant provision

# Finally done?
vagrant ssh
python manage.py runserver 0:8000

To have a working Django Facebook example up and running at 192.168.50.42:8000/facebook/example/. For the facebook login to work simply map that ip to vagrant.mellowmorning.com (Since Facebook checks the domain)

You can run the test suite by typing:

python manage.py test django_facebook

  • What should be the Site URL in facebook app settings to work from localhost?

    What should be the Site URL in facebook app settings to work from localhost?

    I am trying to work with the example page (/facebook/example/) from localhost and I always get "Given URL is not permitted by the application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains."

    In my Site URL (Facebook app settings) I have this: http://127.0.0.1:8000/facebook/example/

    Is it possible to work from locahost? How?

  • Facebook image doesn't seem to be storing

    Facebook image doesn't seem to be storing

    I could have sworn my facebook image was being stored until I started needing to make thumbnails. Doing user.get_profile().image returns:

    <ImageFieldFile: None>
    

    Attempting to get the url attribute throws the following error:

    ValueError: The 'image' attribute has no file associated with it.
    

    Any ideas what could be the problem?

  • Error validating access token (Expired) ... Catch

    Error validating access token (Expired) ... Catch

    Hey there, working on a very simple Facebook app using Django-facebook. It simply authenticates to Facebook, list the users Albums, select a photo, save, done!

    Our code is below, but I just can't escape this error and log the user back in. The token expired after a small amount of time, which is fine but we need to allow them to log back in, just catching the error and redirecting them to the "Login" screen isn't helping.

    Any ideas would be amazing. Thanks guys

    Error

    OAuthException at / Error validating access token: Session has expired at unix time 1332396000. The current unix time is 1332459417.

    Login

    <form action="{% url facebook_connect %}?facebook_login=1" method="post">
        <input type="hidden" value="{{ request.path }}?album=facebook" name="next" />
        <a href="javascript:void(0);" class="facebook" onclick="F.connect(this.parentNode, ['publish_actions', 'user_photos']);">Register, login or connect with facebook</a>
    </form>
    

    Get Albums

    fb = get_persistent_graph(request)
    if fb.is_authenticated():       
        albums = fb.get("me/albums")["data"]
    

    And that's where it dies as it no longer has access to anything under "fb", so the albums JSON is empty, if printed it errors.

  • Django 1.5

    Django 1.5 "new_user is None, note that backward compatability for the older versions of django registration has been dropped."

    I'm using Django 1.5 and I've tried both AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = 'f2pgame.UserProfile' AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = 'django_facebook.FacebookProfile'.

    I do not understand what this error means since I'm attempting to use userena. Could it be that django-facebook has not been configured correctly to use userena?

    I've follow the example as closely as I could. Here are the important parts of settings.py:

    INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'django_facebook', 'open_facebook', 'f2pgame', # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin: # 'django.contrib.admin', # Uncomment the next line to enable admin documentation: # 'django.contrib.admindocs', )

    AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = 'f2pgame.UserProfile'

    AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = 'django_facebook.FacebookProfile'

    userena config

    from django.conf import settings

    USERENA_ACTIVATION_REQUIRED = getattr(settings, 'USERENA_ACTIVATION_REQUIRED', False) USERENA_ACTIVATED = getattr(settings, 'USERENA_ACTIVATED', 'ALREADY_ACTIVATED')

    ACCOUNT_ACTIVATION_DAYS = 0

    ANONYMOUS_USER_ID = 1 LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/' LOGIN_URL = '/accounts/signin/' LOGOUT_URL = '/accounts/signout/'

  • Add Python 3 compatibility

    Add Python 3 compatibility

    Hi,

    This PR is initiation for Python 3 support. I hope this will allow a Py3 experimental release.

    I tried to follow http://python3porting.com and https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/python3/ and it uses six compatibility library.

    All the tests are passing in both 2 and 3, except few glitches. Mainly, tests with 'assertRedirects' fail because in Python 3 version, the response redirect url is correct but parameters are not in order. I have only used redirect status code for Py3 for now, hoping that others or you might know better about the issue.

    The other notable issue was, while running tests on Py3, it complains about database table name. I am not sure exactly why, thus I set the db name FACEBOOK_OG_SHARE_DB_TABLE = 'django_facebook_open_graph_share' and it's working fine.

    Please review :)

    'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute 'backend'

    Hi,

    When I log in with the facebook button (javascript pop up), i get the following error message:

            AttributeError at /facebook/connect/
           'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute 'backend'
           Exception Type:  AttributeError
           Exception Value: 'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute 'backend'
           Exception Location:  /Users/marc-antoinelacroix/virtualenv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/utils/functional.py in inner,   line 185
    

    I read that it could be due to an incompatibility with django-registration, so I tried to delete:

     FACEBOOK_REGISTRATION_BACKEND = 'registration.backends.default.DefaultBackend'
    

    from my INSTALL_APPS. I still get the same error but now only the first time a user logs in. The second time it redirects the user to a registration form and indicates "This email address is already in use".

    Now I don't know what to do to solve this problem.

    Thank you for your help!

  • Storing Access Token

    Storing Access Token

    In connect.py, I see code that will store the user's access token:

    if not graph.expires and graph.access_token != profile.access_token

    What do I need to set to prevent graph.expires from being true? I need the user's access token so I can post when they're offline. As such, I've put the following in my settings.py:

    FACEBOOK_DEFAULT_SCOPE = ['email', 'user_about_me', 'user_birthday', 'publish_stream', 'publish_actions', 'offline_access']

    Is there another setting I need to add or something I need in my app at Facebook?
