Taking Shortcuts with OAuth Libraries
Facebook provides several libraries out of the box that you can use to make authorization of your users on Facebook Platform even easier. Some libraries Facebook provides for you include
- JavaScript
- PHP
- Python
- iOS Platform (Objective C)
- Android Platform
In addition, you can search and find libraries for just about any language out there. Perl, my personal favorite (I like my one-liners), has Facebook::Graph, which you can use to initiate authentication. You can also find libraries for Ruby, .Net, and many others. Check the Developer Forums at forum.developers.facebook.com for support for your language.
