Facebook Django Connect Django authentication

django-facebook-connect Description

django-facebook-connect is a Django app that adds Facebook connect authentication to a Django web site. Many of the existing packages are either out of date, using soon to be deprecated facebook apis (along with out of date documentation), or simply do not work quite right.This package is small, does not have external dependencies, and should "just work".InstallYou will need to create a Facebook application for facebook connect to work.Set the "Site URL", located in your facebook applications settings to: http://< your-project's-address >/facebook_connectNote: during development, you may set the above to localhost, e.g. http://127.0.0.1:8000/facebook_connectNext, install this package by running: pip install django-facebook-connectConfigure the following settings in your settings.py: FACEBOOK_LOGIN_REDIRECT = "/" # (optional, defaults to "/") FACEBOOK_APP_ID = "< place your app id here >" # required FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET = "< place your app secret code here >" # required FACEBOOK_SCOPE = "email" # (optional, defaults to "email")Note: FACEBOOK_SCOPE determines what permissions facebook will ask from your users, and in turn, give you access to. For example, your scope may look like: 'read_stream,publish_stream,offline_access,user_photos', whereas above we are only asking for email access. This package comes with the python_facebook_sdk included for retrieving user information - but does not gather more than the name and email at this time (perhaps in future versions).Add "facebook_connect" to your list of installed apps: INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'facebook_connect', )And include faceboook_connect.urls within your urls.py: urlpatterns = pattern('', (r'^facebook_connect/', include('facebook_connect.urls')), )Finally, run: python manage.py syncdbOr, if you're using South: python manage.py schemamigration facebook_connect --initialto create the initial migration, and python manage.py migrate facebook_connectto migrate the database.UsageThese tags are now usable in your templates: {% load facebook_connect %} {% facebook_button %} {% facebook_script %}If you would like to override the default button (facebook_button tag), to choose a different image and have more control, you'll need to trigger (on click) the 'facebook_connect()' function that starts the login process.Product's homepage
