I am making an web app that shows the authenticated user's friends statuses. Is there anyway I can do this using Facebook's graph API? The only thing I am finding is FQL which I can't use because I am not allowed to use php.
Edit: Also I don't need alot of statuses. I only need their friends latest one.
Edit: fbID is the facebook ID. Here is my code:
<script>
var self;
(function(d){ // Load the SDK Asynchronously
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref);
}(document));
window.fbAsyncInit = function() { // Init the SDK upon load
FB.init({
appId : '190843834372497', // App ID
channelUrl : 'http://people.rit.edu/~cds7226/536/project3/channel.html', // Path to your Channel File
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});
// listen for and handle auth.statusChange events
FB.Event.subscribe('auth.statusChange', function(response) {
if (response.authResponse) { // user has auth'd your app and is logged into Facebook
FB.api('/me', function(me){
if (me.name) {
document.getElementById('auth-displayname').innerHTML = me.name;
//Add rest of code here ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
self=me;
}
})
document.getElementById('auth-loggedout').style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('auth-loggedin').style.display = 'block';
} else { // user has not auth'd your app, or is not logged into Facebook
document.getElementById('auth-loggedout').style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById('auth-loggedin').style.display = 'none';
}
});
document.getElementById('auth-loginlink').addEventListener('click', function(){ // respond to clicks on the login and logout links
FB.login(function(response){},{scope: 'friends_status,read_stream'});
});
}
</script>
Then this function executes when you click the button. It gets the User's last checked in location, and personal information including their facebook ID.
function getFriendsCheckin(token)
{
$.getJSON('https://api.foursquare.com/v2/checkins/recent?oauth_token='+token+'&v='+"20120514",function(results){
//console.log(results);
$.each(results['response']['recent'], function(key,value){
//console.log(key+' : '+value);
//Friends personal info
var fullName = value['user']['firstName']+" "+value['user']['lastName'];
var timeStamp = value['createdAt'];
var photo = value['user']['photo'];
var fbID = value['user']['contact']['facebook'];
//Where they last checked in
var locName = value['venue']['name'];
var location = new google.maps.LatLng(value['venue']['location']['lat'],value['venue']['location']['lng']);
//setMarker(location,fullName+'@'+locName);
setCustomMarker(location,fullName+'@'+locName,fbID,photo);
});
})
}
Lastly this is where the problem is. This function is suppose to show the user's friendd last status when the maker is clicked on google maps.
function setCustomMarker(location,title,fbID,icon)
{
//alert("here");
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: location,
draggable: false,
map: map,
title: title,
//icon: icon
//icon: new google.maps.MarkerImage({url: icon, size: new google.maps.Size({width:10,height:10})})
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker,'click',function(){
console.log('SELECT status_id,message FROM status WHERE uid='+fbID);
FB.api(
{
method: 'fql.query',
query: 'SELECT status_id,message FROM status WHERE uid='+fbID
},
function(response){
console.log(response);
}
);//*/
});
}
May be you are confused, but you can use fql with javascript sdk.
e.g.
FB.api(
{
method: 'fql.query',
query: 'SELECT name FROM user WHERE uid=me()'
},
function(response) {
alert('Your name is ' + response[0].name);
}
);
See reference
If you use graph api, this should work (not tested but you can check and updated me)
FB.api('/','POST',{
access_token:'<your_access_token>',
batch:[
{
"method": "GET",
"relative_url": "me/friends?limit=5",
"name": "get-friends"
},
{
"method": "GET",
"depends_on":"get-friends",
"relative_url": "{result=get-friends:$.data.*.id}/statuses"
}
]
},function(response){
console.log(response);
})
Ofcourse you need permission required for reading status updates of friends.
