Example: before_filter in rails or class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base before_filter :require_facebook_login end class MyController < ApplicationController def index end end # all controllers inherit from ApplicationController and the before_filter in ApplicationController elegantly forces the user to login to facebook
The implementation of pyfacebook I saw in one of the example apps was to import pyfacebook or facebook.py as a module and set the api and secret keys in the controller. And if you want to enforce a facebook login before using the app, you would have to call require_facebook_login(request,facebook_settings) in every action you write. That is not very DRY. What would be a better implementation in web2py for integrating pyfacebook or any facebook app solution? Also, are there any examples to implement a facebook iframe canvas app using the facebook python sdk or some other solution? I have been googling with no luck.
