I had a really hard time implementing Facebook with Wicket, and mostly that was because the examples were out dated. This example is for using Facebook connect with wicket and the facebook-java-api found here: http://code.google.com/p/facebook-java-api/ The docs were not much help, so I feel obligated to put what I did to get things working.

For starters, I added the dependency to maven:

pom.xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.code.facebookapi</groupId>
    <artifactId>facebook-java-api-schema</artifactId>
    <version>2.1.1</version>
</dependency>

We use a Panel to display login information.

SimplePanel.html
<html xmlns:wicket>
<body>
  <wicket:panel>
    <!-- facebook api as of 8/11/09 -->
  	<script src="http://static.ak.connect.facebook.com/js/api_lib/v0.4/FeatureLoader.js.php" type="text/javascript"></script>
    
    <!-- function for facebook to execute on login-->
  	<script type="text/javascript" wicket:id="fbcallback">
    function callWicket() { 
     var wcall = wicketAjaxGet('$url$' + '$args$', function() { }, function() { }); 
    }
    </script>
	
	<div id="loginform">
		<div wicket:id="fbloginDiv" style="display:none;">
		    <span wicket:id="fblogin">
            
            <!-- facebool login button -->
            <fb:login-button onlogin='callWicket();'></fb:login-button>
            </span>
            
            <!-- facebook api -->
	        <script type="text/javascript">
	        FB.init("your-api-key", "/xd_receiver.htm");
	        </script>
	    </div>
	</div>

  </wicket:panel>
</body>
</html>

The panel caused me a slight issue when setting up the AbstractDefaultAjaxBehavior. I found that I had to add my Panel to my Page before I could get the callbackUrl from the behavior. Once I did that, everything was ok. Here is a simple panel example that illustrates one way to add the <fb:login to your page and handle a callback from Facebook.

}

The Panel is added to your Page like so:

SimplePage.java

SimplePanel myPanel = new SimplePanel("your-wicket-id");
// make sure you add the panel first
add(myPanel);
// now you can create the panel contents
myPanel.createPanel();

  • No labels
