+ # oauth2_facebook_grantable
2
+
3
+ Adds a grant_type "facebook" to the existing installation of
4
+ [devise_oauth2_providable](https://github.com/socialcast/devise_oauth2_providable)
5
+
6
+ ## Features
7
+
8
+ * Allows to provide facebook_id and facebook_access_token to authenticate
9
+ against an OAuth2 API made with [devise_oauth2_providable](https://github.com/socialcast/devise_oauth2_providable)
10
+
11
+
12
+ ## Requirements
13
+
14
+ * [Devise](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise) authentication library
15
+ * [Rails](http://rubyonrails.org/) 3.1 or higher
16
+ * [Devise OAuth2 Providable](https://github.com/socialcast/devise_oauth2_providable)
17
+
18
+ ## Installation
19
+
20
+ #### Install gem
21
+ ```ruby
22
+ # Gemfile
23
+ gem 'oauth2_facebook_grantable'
24
+ ```
25
+
26
+ #### Migrate database
27
+
28
+ It essentially adds a facebook_identifier column to the User model. It's
29
+ required so the plugin can find a user based on its facebook_id
30
+
31
+ ```
32
+ $ rails g oauth2_facebook_grantable:install
33
+ $ rake db:migrate
34
+ ```
35
+
36
+
37
+ #### Configure User model to support Facebook authentication
38
+
39
+ Add `:oauth2_facebook_grantable` to your `devise` declaration as seen bellow.
40
+
41
+ ```ruby
42
+ class User
43
+ devise :oauth2_providable,
44
+ :oauth2_password_grantable,
45
+ :oauth2_refresh_token_grantable,
46
+ :oauth2_facebook_grantable
47
+ end
48
+ ```
49
+
50
+
51
+ ## Using with Facebook grant_type on the client-side
52
+
53
+ To authentitcate against to the API using Facebook credentials you need to post
54
+ the API with the parameter `facebook_identifier` and `facebook_access_token` as
55
+ shown bellow:
56
+
57
+ ```ruby
58
+ post("/oauth/token",
59
+ :format => :json,
60
+ :facebook_identifier => facebook_id,
61
+ :facebook_access_token => facebook_access_token,
62
+ :grant_type => "facebook",
63
+ :client_secret => client_secret,
64
+ :client_id => client_identifier)
65
+ ```
66
+
67
+

1
+ == Welcome to Rails
2
+
3
+ Rails is a web-application framework that includes everything needed to create
4
+ database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Control pattern.
5
+
6
+ This pattern splits the view (also called the presentation) into "dumb"
7
+ templates that are primarily responsible for inserting pre-built data in between
8
+ HTML tags. The model contains the "smart" domain objects (such as Account,
9
+ Product, Person, Post) that holds all the business logic and knows how to
10
+ persist themselves to a database. The controller handles the incoming requests
11
+ (such as Save New Account, Update Product, Show Post) by manipulating the model
12
+ and directing data to the view.
13
+
14
+ In Rails, the model is handled by what's called an object-relational mapping
15
+ layer entitled Active Record. This layer allows you to present the data from
16
+ database rows as objects and embellish these data objects with business logic
17
+ methods. You can read more about Active Record in
18
+ link:files/vendor/rails/activerecord/README.html.
19
+
20
+ The controller and view are handled by the Action Pack, which handles both
21
+ layers by its two parts: Action View and Action Controller. These two layers
22
+ are bundled in a single package due to their heavy interdependence. This is
23
+ unlike the relationship between the Active Record and Action Pack that is much
24
+ more separate. Each of these packages can be used independently outside of
25
+ Rails. You can read more about Action Pack in
26
+ link:files/vendor/rails/actionpack/README.html.
27
+
28
+
29
+ == Getting Started
30
+
31
+ 1. At the command prompt, create a new Rails application:
32
+ <tt>rails new myapp</tt> (where <tt>myapp</tt> is the application name)
33
+
34
+ 2. Change directory to <tt>myapp</tt> and start the web server:
35
+ <tt>cd myapp; rails server</tt> (run with --help for options)
36
+
37
+ 3. Go to http://localhost:3000/ and you'll see:
38
+ "Welcome aboard: You're riding Ruby on Rails!"
39
+
40
+ 4. Follow the guidelines to start developing your application. You can find
41
+ the following resources handy:
42
+
43
+ * The Getting Started Guide: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html
44
+ * Ruby on Rails Tutorial Book: http://www.railstutorial.org/
45
+
46
+
47
+ == Debugging Rails
48
+
49
+ Sometimes your application goes wrong. Fortunately there are a lot of tools that
50
+ will help you debug it and get it back on the rails.
51
+
52
+ First area to check is the application log files. Have "tail -f" commands
53
+ running on the server.log and development.log. Rails will automatically display
54
+ debugging and runtime information to these files. Debugging info will also be
55
+ shown in the browser on requests from 127.0.0.1.
56
+
57
+ You can also log your own messages directly into the log file from your code
58
+ using the Ruby logger class from inside your controllers. Example:
59
+
60
+ class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
61
+ def destroy
62
+ @weblog = Weblog.find(params[:id])
63
+ @weblog.destroy
64
+ logger.info("#{Time.now} Destroyed Weblog ID ##{@weblog.id}!")
65
+ end
66
+ end
67
+
68
+ The result will be a message in your log file along the lines of:
69
+
70
+ Mon Oct 08 14:22:29 +1000 2007 Destroyed Weblog ID #1!
71
+
72
+ More information on how to use the logger is at http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/
73
+
74
+ Also, Ruby documentation can be found at http://www.ruby-lang.org/. There are
75
+ several books available online as well:
76
+
77
+ * Programming Ruby: http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/ (Pickaxe)
78
+ * Learn to Program: http://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/ (a beginners guide)
79
+
80
+ These two books will bring you up to speed on the Ruby language and also on
81
+ programming in general.

+
83
+
84
+ == Debugger
85
+
86
+ Debugger support is available through the debugger command when you start your
87
+ Mongrel or WEBrick server with --debugger. This means that you can break out of
88
+ execution at any point in the code, investigate and change the model, and then,
89
+ resume execution! You need to install ruby-debug to run the server in debugging
90
+ mode. With gems, use <tt>sudo gem install ruby-debug</tt>. Example:
91
+
92
+ class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
93
+ def index
94
+ @posts = Post.all
95
+ debugger
96
+ end
97
+ end
98
+
99
+ So the controller will accept the action, run the first line, then present you
100
+ with a IRB prompt in the server window. Here you can do things like:
101
+
102
+ >> @posts.inspect
103
+ => "[#<Post:0x14a6be8
104
+ @attributes={"title"=>nil, "body"=>nil, "id"=>"1"}>,
105
+ #<Post:0x14a6620
106
+ @attributes={"title"=>"Rails", "body"=>"Only ten..", "id"=>"2"}>]"
107
+ >> @posts.first.title = "hello from a debugger"
108
+ => "hello from a debugger"
109
+
110
+ ...and even better, you can examine how your runtime objects actually work:
111
+
112
+ >> f = @posts.first
113
+ => #<Post:0x13630c4 @attributes={"title"=>nil, "body"=>nil, "id"=>"1"}>
114
+ >> f.
115
+ Display all 152 possibilities? (y or n)
116
+
117
+ Finally, when you're ready to resume execution, you can enter "cont".
118
+
119
+
120
+ == Console
121
+
122
+ The console is a Ruby shell, which allows you to interact with your
123
+ application's domain model. Here you'll have all parts of the application
124
+ configured, just like it is when the application is running. You can inspect
125
+ domain models, change values, and save to the database. Starting the script
126
+ without arguments will launch it in the development environment.
127
+
128
+ To start the console, run <tt>rails console</tt> from the application
129
+ directory.
130
+
131
+ Options:
132
+
133
+ * Passing the <tt>-s, --sandbox</tt> argument will rollback any modifications
134
+ made to the database.
135
+ * Passing an environment name as an argument will load the corresponding
136
+ environment. Example: <tt>rails console production</tt>.
137
+
138
+ To reload your controllers and models after launching the console run
139
+ <tt>reload!</tt>
140

143
+
144
+
145
+ == dbconsole
146
+
147
+ You can go to the command line of your database directly through <tt>rails
148
+ dbconsole</tt>. You would be connected to the database with the credentials
149
+ defined in database.yml. Starting the script without arguments will connect you
150
+ to the development database. Passing an argument will connect you to a different
151
+ database, like <tt>rails dbconsole production</tt>. Currently works for MySQL,
152
+ PostgreSQL and SQLite 3.

196
+ app
197
+ Holds all the code that's specific to this particular application.
198
+
199
+ app/assets
200
+ Contains subdirectories for images, stylesheets, and JavaScript files.
201
+
202
+ app/controllers
203
+ Holds controllers that should be named like weblogs_controller.rb for
204
+ automated URL mapping. All controllers should descend from
205
+ ApplicationController which itself descends from ActionController::Base.
206
+
207
+ app/models
208
+ Holds models that should be named like post.rb. Models descend from
209
+ ActiveRecord::Base by default.
210
+
211
+ app/views
212
+ Holds the template files for the view that should be named like
213
+ weblogs/index.html.erb for the WeblogsController#index action. All views use
214
+ eRuby syntax by default.
215
+
216
+ app/views/layouts
217
+ Holds the template files for layouts to be used with views. This models the
218
+ common header/footer method of wrapping views. In your views, define a layout
219
+ using the <tt>layout :default</tt> and create a file named default.html.erb.
220
+ Inside default.html.erb, call <% yield %> to render the view using this
221
+ layout.
222
+
223
+ app/helpers
224
+ Holds view helpers that should be named like weblogs_helper.rb. These are
225
+ generated for you automatically when using generators for controllers.
226
+ Helpers can be used to wrap functionality for your views into methods.
227
+
228
+ config
229
+ Configuration files for the Rails environment, the routing map, the database,
230
+ and other dependencies.
231
+
232
+ db
233
+ Contains the database schema in schema.rb. db/migrate contains all the
234
+ sequence of Migrations for your schema.
235
+
236
+ doc
237
+ This directory is where your application documentation will be stored when
238
+ generated using <tt>rake doc:app</tt>
239
+
240
+ lib
241
+ Application specific libraries. Basically, any kind of custom code that
242
+ doesn't belong under controllers, models, or helpers. This directory is in
243
+ the load path.
244
+
245
+ public
246
+ The directory available for the web server. Also contains the dispatchers and the
247
+ default HTML files. This should be set as the DOCUMENT_ROOT of your web
248
+ server.
249
+
250
+ script
251
+ Helper scripts for automation and generation.
252
+
253
+ test
254
+ Unit and functional tests along with fixtures. When using the rails generate
255
+ command, template test files will be generated for you and placed in this
256
+ directory.
257
+
258
+ vendor
259
+ External libraries that the application depends on. Also includes the plugins
260
+ subdirectory. If the app has frozen rails, those gems also go here, under
261
+ vendor/rails/. This directory is in the load path.
