    }

    ```

cd faceboo
git submodule update --init

```

Parameters
----------

[](#parameters)

- app\_id: you app id
- secret: your app secret
- permissions: array of facebook permissions needed to access the app
    -
- namespace: your app namespace
- canvas: true if your app work under a facebook iframe
- proxy: to make facebook requests work behind non-transparent proxy
- timeout :
- connect\_timeout
- protect: true|false, disable the redirection when accessing the server, in canvas mode
- class\_path (silex only): define another path to reach Facebook PHP SDK

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Silex

[](#silex)

Register the namespace and the extension, in top of index.php:

```
$app['autoloader']->registerNamespace('Faceboo', __DIR__.'/../vendor/faceboo/src');

$app->register(new Faceboo\Provider\FacebookServiceProvider(), array(
    'facebook.app_id' => 'YOUR_APP_ID'
));

```

The parameters are formated as : facebook.

Login and ask user for permissions if needed:

```
$app['facebook.permissions'] = array();

$app->match('/', function () use ($app) {

    if ($response = $app['facebook']->auth()) return $response;

    //...
});

```

In canvas mode, protect your canvas app from direct access to the source server:

```
$app->before(function(Request $request) use ($app) {
    if ($response = $app['facebook']->protect()) return $response;
});

* do not rely on it for security, it's based on HTTP_REFERER so it's not safe

```

In a fan page tab, is the current user admin of the fan page :

```
$app->match('/', function () use ($app) {

    $isAdmin = $app['facebook']->isFanPageAdmin();

    //...
}

* you need to define "secret" parameter

```

In a fan page tab, what is the fan page id :

```
$app->match('/', function () use ($app) {

    $pageId = $app['facebook']->getFanPageId();

    //...
}

* you need to define "secret" parameter

```

In a fan page tab, does the current user like the fan page :

```
$app->match('/', function () use ($app) {

    $isFan = $app['facebook']->isFan();

    //...
}

* you need to define "secret" parameter

```

Get the current facebook user id:

```
$app['facebook']->getUser();

```

Call the Facebook api:

```
$data =  $app['facebook']->api('/me);

```

### Symfony2

[](#symfony2)

Register the autoload in app/autoload.php:

```
$loader->registerNamespaces(array(
    //...
    'Faceboo'        => __DIR__.'/../vendor/faceboo/src'
));

//...

require_once __DIR__.'/../. /vendor/php-sdk/src/facebook.php';

```

Register the bundle in app/AppKernel.php:

```
    $bundles = array(
        //...
        new Faceboo\FacebookBundle\FacebooFacebookBundle(),
    );

```

Add the following in app/config/config.yml:

```
faceboo_facebook:
    app_id: 297720976910223
    secret: b151a27351e91dab2ee18986d8c47052

```

    -
- facebook.namespace: your app namespace
- facebook.canvas: true if your app work under a facebook iframe

- facebook.timeout
- facebook.connect\_timeout
- facebook.protect: true|false, disable the redirection when accessing the server, in canvas mode
- facebook.class\_path: define another path to reach Facebook PHP SDK

    //...
}

```
