We have refactored this library after v0.10.0
. If you want to use the old version, please, see branch v0
.
The new structure is as follows
.. image:: docs/docs/images/structure.png
.. note::
This new structure may still change.
Now, you can use base class ``GraphAPI`` to get data.
You can install this library from pypi
::
pip install --upgrade python-facebook-api
.. note::
If you want to use an old version, you can set the version to ``0.9.*``, which also supports Python 2.7.
You can use the GraphAPI
class to communicate with the Facebook Graph API.
You can initialize a GraphAPI
object with three different methods, depending on your needs.
If you already have an access token, you can initialize it with ::
from pyfacebook import GraphAPI api = GraphAPI(access_token="token")
If you need to generate an app token automatically using the app/client ID and secret, you can do ::
from pyfacebook import GraphAPI api = GraphAPI(app_id="id", app_secret="secret", application_only_auth=True)
If you want to perform the authorization process for a user, you can do ::
from pyfacebook import GraphAPI api = GraphAPI(app_id="id", app_secret="secret", oauth_flow=True) api.get_authorization_url()
api.exchange_user_access_token(response="url redirected")
For more info about the different access tokens, see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/guides/access-tokens.
Once you have the user access token, you can get the Facebook data. For example,
>>> api.get_object(object_id="20531316728")
>>> {'name': 'Facebook App', 'id': '20531316728'}
See the code for more operations.
To get the user data::
>>> fb.user.get_info(user_id="413140042878187")
>>> User(id='413140042878187', name='Kun Liu')
To get the page data::
>>> fb.page.get_info(page_id="20531316728")
>>> Page(id='20531316728', name='Facebook App')
For more info, please, see the code or the docs.
