Facebook Integration

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Need simple SDK that we can use to use to let the user authorize Facebook app and then have the ability to use GRAPH API to access Facebook stream, post to wall, get user/friend details.....etc.

Hooking into Facebook is critical for many devs, and no reason for every dev to try and re-invent the difficult or near impossible task with WebWorks to connect to Facebook in an elegent way.

Is there a RIM developed SDK available that devs can use and depend on for updates? If not will there be one?

Facebook offers a JavaScript SDK that can be used to perform oAuth authenticate from a WebWorks app. Note however this SDK requires that you have a "channel page" deployed on your own web server:

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/client-side/

I tried it and it works well on the Desktop but not on the PlayBook because it requires pop-up windows. Am I missing something?
