Usage

Full document is available at http://inthecheesefactory.com/blog/how-to-add-facebook-like-button-in-android-app/en

First of all, you have to setup the create a Facebook App and setup Facebook SDK for Android in your Android App. Please check this link.

After that, place com.inthecheesefactory.lib.fblike.widget.FBLikeView wherever you want to place a Facebook Like Button, for example:

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/tvUrl"
    android:text="@string/hello_world" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

<com.inthecheesefactory.lib.fblike.widget.FBLikeView
    android:id="@+id/fbLikeView"
    androi:text="Login to Like"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

You could get a LikeView instance through getLikeView method.

FBLikeView fbLikeView = (FBLikeView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.fbLikeView);
LikeView likeView = fbLikeView.getLikeView();

To set a url and its type, you could do via LikeView's setObjectIdAndType method.

fbLikeView.getLikeView().setObjectIdAndType("YOUR_URL_HERE", LikeView.ObjectType.OPEN_GRAPH);

And to connect every single FBLikeView to Facebook Login process, you have to add this line to every single Activity's onActivityResult in your app.

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    FBLikeView.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}

That's all. LikeView will now work perfectly in your app !

To disconnect your app from Facebook, just simply use this command:

FBLikeView.logout();
