Inspired by the older Facebook-Connect-Example I wrote a Login-panel for the new Facebook Javascript SDK.

For the REST-calls to the new Graph-API I use RestFB

I used mostly plain JavaScript, but you can put it easily into a wrapper for your convenience.

FacebookSignInPanel.html
<html xmlns:wicket>
    <body>
        <wicket:head>
        	<script type="text/javascript" wicket:id="loginCallback"></script>
			<script type="text/javascript" wicket:id="logoutCallback"></script>
        </wicket:head>
        <wicket:panel>
            <fb:login-button autologoutlink="true" perms="email" >
            </fb:login-button>
            <!-- Facebook-API -->
            <div id="fb-root">
            </div>
            <script wicket:id="FBapi">  <!-- calling Facebook API, init and check login -->
            </script>
        </wicket:panel>
    </body>
</html>

The panel is as minimalistic as possible. You can simply put it on the header of your design and use it as login-indicator and -button or extend the code to a more sophisticated login-page.

}

Here I add the Javascript-API from Facebook, listen to the login- and logout-triggers and check if the user is already logged in in Facebook but not at my page (so no login-trigger will fire).
If the login is triggered, I extract the interesting data from the response (that is what the Facebook-javascript-request returned to me) and give it to the Session.

The details are inline-commented.

My Session uses AuthenticatedWebSession (auth-roles) as base.
Here I handle the login or logout and take care about things like a different user-ID for already logged-in user (another user logged into Facebook while our page was not refreshed in between)

Just add it like this:

FacebookSignInPanel x = new FacebookSignInPanel("signInPanel");
add(x);

Errors that can occurr:

  • Facebook API-Error 100:
    API Error Code: 100
    API Error Description: Invalid parameter
    Error Message: next is not owned by the application.
    
    Solution: Add a Post-Authorize Rederict URL in you Facebook-App

I hope this is useful for you,

Updates:

  • 2010/6/10:
    * Added createPanel() to the constructor.
    * Added common Bug API Error 100
