A SIMPLE FORM OF FACEBOOK SDK WITH CHANGED SESSION HANDLING FOR LARAVEL

This repository contains the open source PHP SDK that allows you to access the Facebook Platform from your PHP app.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The Facebook PHP SDK can be installed with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/). Run this command:

```
composer require facebook/php-sdk-v4
```

Upgrading to v5.x
-----------------

[](#upgrading-to-v5x)

Upgrading from v4.x? Facebook PHP SDK v5.x introduced breaking changes. Please [read the upgrade guide](https://www.sammyk.me/upgrading-the-facebook-php-sdk-from-v4-to-v5) before upgrading.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

> **Note:** This version of the Facebook SDK for PHP requires PHP 5.4 or greater.

Simple GET example of a user's profile.

```
$fb = new Facebook\Facebook([
  'app_id' => '{app-id}',
  'app_secret' => '{app-secret}',
  'default_graph_version' => 'v2.5',
  //'default_access_token' => '{access-token}', // optional
]);

// Use one of the helper classes to get a Facebook\Authentication\AccessToken entity.
//   $helper = $fb->getRedirectLoginHelper();
//   $helper = $fb->getJavaScriptHelper();
//   $helper = $fb->getCanvasHelper();
//   $helper = $fb->getPageTabHelper();

try {
  // Get the Facebook\GraphNodes\GraphUser object for the current user.
  // If you provided a 'default_access_token', the '{access-token}' is optional.
  $response = $fb->get('/me', '{access-token}');
} catch(Facebook\Exceptions\FacebookResponseException $e) {
  // When Graph returns an error
  echo 'Graph returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
  exit;
} catch(Facebook\Exceptions\FacebookSDKException $e) {
  // When validation fails or other local issues
  echo 'Facebook SDK returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
  exit;
}

$me = $response->getGraphUser();
echo 'Logged in as ' . $me->getName();
```

Tests
-----

[](#tests)

1. [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) is a prerequisite for running the tests. Install composer globally, then run `composer install` to install required files.
2. Create a test app on [Facebook Developers](https://developers.facebook.com), then create `tests/FacebookTestCredentials.php` from `tests/FacebookTestCredentials.php.dist` and edit it to add your credentials.
3. The tests can be executed by running this command from the root directory:

```
$ ./vendor/bin/phpunit
```

By default the tests will send live HTTP requests to the Graph API. If you are without an internet connection you can skip these tests by excluding the `integration` group.

```
$ ./vendor/bin/phpunit --exclude-group integration
```
