New Post: web.config Setup

Hi,

Thank you very much for making the toolkit.

I am trying to run the application. However I am having this error:

The URL http://localhost:8075/?auth_token=52912e7d5c08d0318f6a102c8b357139 is not valid.

I tried removing QSK_AUTH_TOKEN = "auth_token" from the <FacebookConfig >, however it still gave me that error with diff auth_token value....

Do you know what the problem is? Please....

Thank you,

Debsky

Did you workout a fix for this? I'm interested in putting Facebook integration in an MVC application myself.

Hi there,

The project seems to have been quiet for a while. So I'm thinking of using this library for my small pet project. And I'm diving straight into the deep end. The goal is to get this library to work with ASP.Net MVC Beta and FDT 2.0.

So this is what I've done so far:

change facebookApi.UserId to facebookAPi.uid
uid is now long instead of string with default value = 0. So, all the string null empty checks becomes a is it 0 checks.

Now this is the problem I'm having issues with:
FDT no longer have isAppAdded(), but instead it has pages.isAppAdded(long pageID).

Hence, I'm not sure what to initialize the pageID value on the following line:
private void AddApplication()
{
if (!facebookApi.pages.isAppAdded() && config.AutoAddApp)
{ ... }
}

any help would be appreciated.

Using the Facebook Developer Toolkit MVC Addon is really easy once you've add your configuration into the web.config file.

If you are creating an IFrame Facebook app use the following ActionFilter:

[Facebook.Web.Mvc.InitializeIframeAction()]
public ActionResult Index(FacebookAPI facebookAPI)

For FBML Facebook applications use:

[Facebook.Web.Mvc.InitializeFbmlAction()]
public ActionResult fbml(FacebookAPI facebookAPI)

Notice that both Controller Actions accept a FacebookAPI object named facebookAPI -> this is required! This is how a fully loaded FacebookAPI object is returned to your controller action. You can use the facebookAPI instantiated object (which is from the FBDT) inside your controller action to perform various tasks and access various information.

Here is a sample look at what the web.config of your MVC application should look like:
    <configSections>
    <section name="FacebookConfig" type="Facebook.Web.Config, Facebook.Web" />
    </configSections>

<FacebookConfig APPNAME="yourappname"
                  APPKEY="YOUR APPLICATION KEY PROVIDED BY FACEBOOK"
                  SECRETKEY="YOUR SECRET KEY PROVIDED BY FACEBOOK"
                  ADDURL="http://www.facebook.com/add.php?api_key="
                  LOGINURL ="http://www.facebook.com/login.php?api_key="
                  QSK_AUTH_TOKEN = "auth_token"
                  USESESSION = "false" />
