I am using FB.api OpenGraph to post a message on the user's wall. I would like the link target to be equal to '_blank' so it opens in a new tab. Is it possible ? The Facebook documentation doesn't give much details.
var params = {};
params['message'] = 'message';
params['name'] = 'name';
params['link'] = 'http://link';
params['picture'] = 'http://picture';
params['description'] = 'description';
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', params, function(response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
alert('Error occured');
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response);
}
});
that's something they manage themselves. there's nothing you can do. Still, AFAIK, that's the default behavior.
I think it has something to do with your Apps Url in the app settings.
Im witnessing that , when the apps url was app.com
all links i shared on my users feed with the link app.com/results.php would open on the same tab and links i shared with the link www.app.com/results.php would open in a new link.
The problem there , was , that from www.app.com , i couldnot authorize api access for some reason.
I'll try to register both urls , and see what happens.

I am trying to use the Rally web service API to get some data. Code as blow. On IE it will pop out a login window, after entry login name and password, I am about to get some data. But when I use chrome, it response 401, not sure what I missing. I know there is SDK available, but due to some limitation, not able to use it. Any suggestions please?
var url = https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/users;
$.ajax({
url: url,
type: 'GET',
heards: { zsessionid: apiKey },
success: function(json) {
console.log(JSON.stringify(json));
}
},
error: function( req, status, err ) { console.log( 'something went wrong', status, err );
}
});
I'd love to know more about why you can't use the SDK. Anyway, in this case your config likely needs headers instead of heards to pass the api key.
Hello it's my first time doing a sign in process in a mobile app with Titanium and I wonder what information should I save and the best practice to do it?
My server is configured in this way:
The server requires I send a user and password and if the information match it will provide a token session.
This is the code I use for signing in:
function signIn(e) {
//function to use HTTP to connect to a web server and transfer the data.
var sendit = Ti.Network.createHTTPClient({
onerror : function(e) {
Ti.API.debug(e.error);
alert('There was an error during the connection');
},
timeout : 100000,
});
//Here you have to change it for your local ip
sendit.open('POST', 'http://myserver');
var params = {
user : $.txtUsuario.value,
password : $.txtPassword.value
};
sendit.send(params);
//Function to be called upon a successful response
sendit.onload = function() {
var json = this.responseText;
var response = JSON.parse(json);
if (response.success == "true")
{
var landing = Alloy.createController("menu").getView();
$.index.close();
landing.open();
}
else
{
alert(response);
}
};
};
the code above is working, however I do not know how to manage the sign out. I would like my application works like the most apps do, e.g:
You sign in once and after that if you do not close the app you are able to continues using it and even making a request.
Thank you for any explanation.
It depends on your app requirements. for exemple if you will use the token in your app later you can save it as an AppProperty :
Ti.App.Properties.setString('token',yourTokenGoHere);
and in the app starting you can get it back :
var myToken = Ti.App.Properties.getString('token');
and then you can make a test for example if the token is still valid or not :
if(myToken === 'invalidtoken')
youSholdLogin();
else
youCanGoFurther();
and when the user disconnect rest the token to be invalid :
Ti.App.Properties.setString('token', 'invalidtoken');
I'm new to add-on development and I've been struggling with this issue for a while now. There are some questions here that are somehow related but they haven't helped me to find a solution yet.
So, I'm developing a Firefox add-on that reads one particular header when any web page that is loaded in any tab in the browser.
I'm able to observer tab loads but I don't think there is a way to read http headers inside the following (simple) code, only url. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
var tabs = require("sdk/tabs");
tabs.on('open', function(tab){
tab.on('ready', function(tab){
console.log(tab.url);
});
});
});
I'm also able to read response headers by observing http events like this:
var {Cc, Ci} = require("chrome");
var httpRequestObserver =
{
init: function() {
var observerService = Cc["#mozilla.org/observer-service;1"].getService(Ci.nsIObserverService);
observerService.addObserver(this, "http-on-examine-response", false);
},
observe: function(subject, topic, data)
{
if (topic == "http-on-examine-response") {
subject.QueryInterface(Ci.nsIHttpChannel);
this.onExamineResponse(subject);
}
},
onExamineResponse: function (oHttp)
{
try
{
var header_value = oHttp.getResponseHeader("<the_header_that_i_need>"); // Works fine
console.log(header_value);
}
catch(err)
{
console.log(err);
}
}
};
The problem (and a major source of personal confusion) is that when I'm reading the response headers I don't know to which request the response is for. I want to somehow map the request (request url especially) and the response header ("the_header_that_i_need").
You're pretty much there, take a look at the sample code here for more things you can do.
onExamineResponse: function (oHttp)
{
try
{
var header_value = oHttp.getResponseHeader("<the_header_that_i_need>");
// URI is the nsIURI of the response you're looking at
// and spec gives you the full URL string
var url = oHttp.URI.spec;
}
catch(err)
{
console.log(err);
}
}
Also people often need to find the tab related, which this answers Finding the tab that fired an http-on-examine-response event
I'm currently trying to make a site where the user can log in with his google+ account. Most of it is working. I get them to grant access to my website. They can log in and I get their name and user ID, and I show content specific to their google account on my site.
When however someone else wants to log in and I try to 'log out' of the site, the google log in still remembers that it just logged in and after logging out it instantly runs the code to log in again. If I delete the SSID cookie from google it doesn't do this, so I'm assuming that's where google stores the fact that I just logged in with x.
Is there a way to when I log out make google not instantly log in with the same account, but rather ask for the e-mail and password of a google user?
I feel like I'm missing something obvious here, but I can't figure out how to deal with this.
Code I use to Auth and get data:
<button class ="btn btn-primary" id="authorize-button" style="visibility: hidden">Log in</button>
<script>
var clientId = '';
var apiKey = '';
var scopes = '';
function handleClientLoad() {
gapi.client.setApiKey(apiKey);
window.setTimeout(checkAuth,1);
}
function checkAuth() {
//alert("authorize");
gapi.auth.authorize({client_id: clientId, scope: scopes, immediate: true}, handleAuthResult);
}
function handleAuthResult(authResult) {
//alert("authorized");
//alert(authResult.access_token);
var authorizeButton = document.getElementById('authorize-button');
if (authResult && !authResult.error) {
authorizeButton.style.visibility = 'hidden';
makeApiCall();
} else {
authorizeButton.style.visibility = '';
authorizeButton.onclick = handleAuthClick;
}
var token = document.createElement('h4');
token.appendChild(document.createTextNode(authResult.access_token));
document.getElementById('content').appendChild(token);
}
function handleAuthClick(event) {
gapi.auth.authorize({client_id: clientId, scope: scopes, immediate: false}, handleAuthResult);
return false;
}
var x;
function makeApiCall() {
//return;
gapi.client.load('plus', 'v1', function() {
var request = gapi.client.plus.people.get({
'userId': 'me'
});
request.execute(function(resp) {
x = resp.id;
var heading2 = document.createElement('h4');
var heading3 = document.createElement('h4');
heading3.appendChild(document.createTextNode(resp.displayName));
heading2.appendChild(document.createTextNode(resp.id));
document.getElementById('content2').appendChild(heading2);
document.getElementById('content3').appendChild(heading3);
$.post("token.php", {id: x});
});
});
}
When you make the auth call, set approvalprompt to force. This will force the consent dialog to appear every time. It overrides the default setting of "auto." You can learn more at https://developers.google.com/+/web/signin/#sign-in_button_attributes.
gapi.auth.authorize({client_id: clientId, scope: scopes, immediate: true, approvalprompt: force}
After the user authorizes your app, they are basically logged in to your app any time that they are also logged in to Google, especially when immediate mode is turned on.
What some sites do is have a logout link or button that displays a page or dialog that says something along the lines of "You're logged in to Google and this site with account blah#blah.com. If you want to switch accounts, go to google.com and log out of your Google session."
You can also track the logged in status of a user using your own cookies and setting and removing them during the appropriate events in your code. You would want to discard any tokens that your app obtained on behalf of the user during a log out event. When the user logged in again, they would not need to re-authorize your application with the popup (or redirect window), but you'd still get a new access token during the callback.
I am building a google contextual gadget in it i use the following code to load a page:
var params = {};
url = "http://example.com:2057/tasks/create";
params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.CONTENT_TYPE] = gadgets.io.ContentType.JSON;
params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.AUTHORIZATION] = gadgets.io.AuthorizationType.SIGNED;
params["OAUTH_SERVICE_NAME"] = "HMAC";
params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.METHOD] = gadgets.io.MethodType.GET;
gadgets.io.makeRequest(url, function(response)
{
if (response.data && response.data.RedirectUrl)
HandleLogin(response.data.RedirectUrl);
else if(response.text)
{
showOneSection('main');
$('#main').append(response.text);
}
else
ShowDebug(response);
}, params);
The call does not reach my server. and when i try reaching the url in a browser it returns fast.
what can be the problem? how can i trouble shoot it?
Thanks
I finally found the problem.
when making a signed request you have to first obtain a consumer key + secret key.
see http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/apps-apis/thread?tid=31db71169fb6fc77&hl=en
you can do that here: https://www.google.com/gadgets/directory/verify
without the keys google is unable to sign the request (although one would expect a proper error message).
