This is a django app to use the new Graph API authentication with Django. It uses the standard authentication build into Django.
Make sure you read http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/ to have an idea of how this is intended to work.
- Go into
./example - Set up the FACEBOOK_APP_ID and FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET to your Facebook app (Set one up at https://developers.facebook.com/apps)
- Run
python manage.py syncdb - Run
python manage.py runserver - Go to http://localhost:8000 and login!
Here are the differences between a base Django settings.py and the ones needed for the example project to run:
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ('facebook.backend.FacebookBackend', 'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend') AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = 'facebook.FacebookProfile' FACEBOOK_APP_ID = os.environ['FACEBOOK_APP_ID'] FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET = os.environ['FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET'] FACEBOOK_SCOPE = 'email,publish_stream' INSTALLED_APPS = ['facebook'] I (ryanmark) added a couple features:
- When a user logs in successfully, he will get redirected to the url specified in the LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL setting.
- Can add an setup step for new facebook users.
You can force a new facebook user to fill out a form or register for an account. To redirect the user to a setup page instead of automatically creating an account, add this to your setting.py:
FACEBOOK_FORCE_SIGNUP = True The new facebook user will be redirected to the url route named 'facebook_setup'. Your setup view should look something like this:
def setup(request): # we need a code from facebook code = request.GET.get('code') #you need to be logged into facebook. user = authenticate(token=code, request=request) if request.method == "POST": # Process sign up form # django.contrib.auth.login and redirect if successful # Display sign up form
