Getting started with Laravel Facebook Graph is easy - first, install the package via composer
composer require joelbutcher/laravel-facebook-graph
Then publish the package config:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="JoelButcher\Facebook\FacebookServiceProvider"
This will add a config/facebook.php file to your project. Here you may configure the following options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
app_id |
Used to identify your app when requesting a users' access token |
app_secret |
The secret key used to authorize your app with Facebook |
redirect_url |
The destination URL to redirect users to, after authenticating with Facebook |
graph_version |
The graph version to target when making user-authenticated requests to the Facebook Graph API, defaults to v11.0 |
beta_mode |
Indicates whether or not to run a beta version of the SDK |
You may add a custom URL Detection handler, by binding a singleton your implementation in the register method of the AppServiceProvider:
$this->app->singleton(UrlDetectionInterface::class, fn ($app) => $app[UrlDetectionHandler::class])In order to store the state for OAuth requests to Facebook, you will either need to register a persistent data handler. You can find an example of how to do this here
The current version of the Facebook Graph SDK (v6) uses HTTPlug for making requests. If you wish to use your own HTTP Client, it MUST implment the Http\Client\HttpClient interface. Please refer to this example
