libfb-js

Facebook chat MQTT library for Node.js

   

⚠️ Disclaimer: this library is abandoned and seems to ignore some incoming messages due to Facebook introducing the new Lightspeed clients. Fixes are welcome.

Example usage

Echo bot

const { Client } = require('libfb')
const client = new Client()
client.login('username', 'password').then(() => {
  client.on('message', message => {
    console.log('Got a message!')
    console.log(message.message)
    client.sendMessage(message.threadId, message.message)
  })
})

Chat greeting

const { Client } = require('libfb')
const client = new Client()
client.login('username', 'password').then(() => {
  client.on('participantsAddedToGroupThreadEvent', async event => {
    const user = await client.getUserInfo(event.participantIds[0])
    client.sendMessage(event.threadId, `Hello, ${user.name}!`)
  })
})

Documentation

See here

Updating from 1.x.x

const { login } = require('libfb')
login('username', 'password').then(client => {
  ...
})

becomes

const { Client } = require('libfb')
const client = new Client()
client.login('username', 'password').then(() => {
  ...
})
