Facebook SDK for PHP (v5)
This repository contains the open source PHP SDK that allows you to access the Facebook Platform from your PHP app.
Installation
The Facebook PHP SDK can be installed with Composer. Run this command:
composer require facebook/graph-sdk
Please be aware, that there are issues when using the Facebook SDK together with Guzzle 6.x. php-graph-sdk v5.x only works with Guzzle 5.x out of the box. However, there is a workaround to make it work with Guzzle 6.x.
Upgrading to v5.x
Upgrading from v4.x? Facebook PHP SDK v5.x introduced breaking changes. Please read the upgrade guide before upgrading.
Usage
Note: This version of the Facebook SDK for PHP requires PHP 5.4 or greater.
Simple GET example of a user's profile.
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php'; // change path as needed
$fb = new \Facebook\Facebook([
'app_id' => '{app-id}',
'app_secret' => '{app-secret}',
'default_graph_version' => 'v2.10',
//'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();
