Place files on your webserver

Scrumptious Web requires a web server addressable from the public Internet running PHP with cURL enabled.

Clone the repository from GitHub into a folder inside your website's document root.

git clone [email protected]:fbsamples/web-scrumptious.git scrumptious
cd scrumptious

Initialize and update the Facebook PHP SDK submodule.

git submodule init
git submodule update

Configure your application

Edit the config.php file with the appropriate values for your application, audience, and server.

1. Add information from your Facebook application including your app id, secret, and namespace.
2. Set your Facebook locale to display JavaScript SDK strings in a language other than English.
3. Specify a base URI, including the trailing slash, representing the URI to this directory's content on your webserver. e.g. http://example.com/
4. Specify a static base URI, including the trailing slash, representing the URI to the sample's static content. e.g. http://example.com/static/ if on the same server or http://s.example.com/ if you choose to serve static files from a CDN or separate hostname.

Scrumptious Web overview

Scrumptious Web allows a visitor to browse a list of meals and view a detail page with more information about a meal of interest.

Scrumptious Web paired with a properly configured Facebook application adds identity and sharing features powered by Facebook:

• Share basic Facebook information with your Facebook application through Facebook Login including his or her name, gender, and Facebook profile photo
• Grant your Facebook application permission to publish new Open Graph actions to his Facebook profile on his behalf
• Publish a new custom Open Graph action associated with your application with support for a personal message, tagged friends, tagged place, and explicit sharing
