FB.getLoginStatus doesn't work in Chrome even sandbox disable - javascript

I follow railscast to add "sign in with Facebook" feature in my site, there is no problem to login. But when try to logout, it seems that FB.getLoginStatus never got fire even when I disable Sandbox Mode in facebook developer app settings (as suggested in some other discussion):
(function() {
jQuery(function() {
$('body').prepend('<div id="fb-root"></div>');
return $.ajax({
url: "" + window.location.protocol + "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js",
dataType: 'script',
cache: true
});
});
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({
appId: 'xxxxxomittedxxxxx',
cookie: true,
status: true,
xfbml: true,
oauth: true
});
$('#sign_in').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
return FB.login(function(response) {
if (response.authResponse) {
return window.location = '/auth/facebook/callback';
}
});
});
return $('#sign_out').click(function(e) {
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
if (response.authResponse) {
return FB.logout(response.authResponse);
}
});
return true;
});
};
}).call(this);
The reason I know the FB.getLoginStatus never get in (or doesn't work) is I replace the body with:
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
return alert("I am here!");
});
and I cannot see my alert while "sign_out" click.
I am running both Chrome and Firefox having the same behaviour. Could anybody help to spot what am I missing? Thanks a lot.
Let me describe more specific about the "behaviour" I encountered:
sign in with Facebook from mysite.com the first time a Facebook login window will popup and ask for email and password, and I can sign in to my site perfectly ok and work as expected
then I click on sign_out button from mysite.com/users/1, it looks like it sign out ok.
then sign in with Facebook from mysite.com again, now it won't popup the Facebook login window anymore and login to mysite.com/users/1 directly without asking email and password!
if I open another browser window and go to facebook.com and logout from there, then when I sign in with Facebook from mysite.com, it will popup a Facebook login window now and ask for my email and password.
I would like my site to behave: "when logout from mysite.com/users/n and sign in with Facebook again from mysite.com, the Facebook login window shall popup"
Anyone could be of help? Thanks a lot.
EDIT:
Further investigation found the "root" cause might be still: the sign out is under the different route (or page) of the sign in route and FB.getLoginStatus just cannot be fire under the mysite.com/signout. The error message from firebug indicates that "Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains."
To proof it is the route issue, I put a sign out link in the same route (page) as sign in route which is the root route mysite.com as specified in the "Website with Facebook Login", everything works and can logout as expected:
<%= link_to "sign out facebook", "#" , id: "sign_out" %>
by the way the sign_out js is revised to get rid of FB.logout(response.authResponse) uncaught [object Object] error, because FB.logout expects function as parameter:
return $('#sign_out').click(function(e) {
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
if (response.authResponse) {
FB.logout();
}
}, true);
});
};
So, the bottom line: FB.getLoginStatus might still have a bug which cannot handle the call from a different route than sign in route. (I tested with Chrome, Firefox and Safari and all behave the same but not true for IE10. Somehow IE10 works even sign out at different route.)
Any comment from people who have similar problem? Please advise. Thank you very much in advance.

Try adding true as second parameter to getLoginStatus, as stated in FB dev doc:
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
// this will be called when the roundtrip to Facebook has completed
}, true);
This should avoid caching.
Another option is to subscribe to events:
FB.Event.subscribe('auth.login', function(response) {
// do something with response
});
All from here
Comment if you have questions.
EDIT:
I modified your script a little bit, removed unneeded code parts. You had too many returns that are not needed. I tried sign out within this modified script, it works as you need it.
Events subscription is for check purposes.

JS Facebook login iOS8

The login button on my facebook app has completely stopped working in iOS 8. I thought it was something I have done but when I take facebooks sample html from their site and apply it to my page it still doesnt work (my app id has been replaced with xxxxx). Basically the pop up window opens for facebook auth but never closes and returns to my app. Im just left with a blank which tab open:
<!DOCTYPE html>

// The response object is returned with a status field that lets the
// app know the current login status of the person.
// Full docs on the response object can be found in the documentation
// for FB.getLoginStatus().
if (response.status === 'connected') {
// Logged into your app and Facebook.
testAPI();
} else if (response.status === 'not_authorized') {
// The person is logged into Facebook, but not your app.
document.getElementById('status').innerHTML = 'Please log ' +
'into this app.';
} else {
// The person is not logged into Facebook, so we're not sure if
// they are logged into this app or not.
document.getElementById('status').innerHTML = 'Please log ' +
'into Facebook.';
}
}
// This function is called when someone finishes with the Login
// Button. See the onlogin handler attached to it in the sample

function checkLoginState() {

// 3. Not logged into Facebook and can't tell if they are logged into

// These three cases are handled in the callback function.
FB.getLoginStatus(function (response) {
statusChangeCallback(response);
});
};
// Load the SDK asynchronously

var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];

The only solution I came up with is to degrade back to the server-side authentication flow when on iOS using full on redirects. Basically your app should hit a URL like this:
https://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth?
client_id={app-id}
&redirect_uri={redirect-uri}
Which is a jarring experience on desktop, but is arguably a nicer experience on mobile, given that the user isn’t taken through the weird tab switching (which is the root of the new problem in the first place). To degrade to this flow ONLY on iOS, make sure your sign-in link is actually an href to the facebook authentication dialog (like the link above, or for you omniauth users on rails, is “/auth/facebook”). Then wrap the javascript where you invoke the client side flow in code that prevents it from being run on iOS (or all of mobile, if you want).
if(!/Android|webOS|iPhone|iPad|iPod|BlackBerry|IEMobile|Opera Mini/i.test(navigator.userAgent)) {
[Facebook client side flow code here]
}
(please let me know in comments if anyone has a more elegant way of doing this)

Facebook Javascript API sending two requests

In my application I have a function like this one:
getProfile = function() {
FB.api('/me', function(response) {
console.log(response);
});
return false;
};
Which requests the "me" object from the Facebook Graph API over JavaScript, and it works as expected when I attach it to the onClick event of a regular link or call it from the console directly, but when I try to call it from the Facebook log in button:
<fb:login-button onlogin="getProfile()">
Get Profile
</fb:login-button>
I get the expected response only if I am logged out of Facebook and subsequently log in through the dialog; if I click the button while I'm already logged in, I get this:
And if I push the response to the browser:
getProfile = function() {
FB.api('/me', function(response) {
console.log(response);
var
profile = document.getElementById('profile'),
p = document.createElement('p');
p.innerHTML = response.first_name;
profile.appendChild(p);
});
return false;
};
Of course I get two paragraphs with my name in them.
Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong? So far my Googling has me convinced that this is related to the way the SDK handles log in events (firing on every page load) but I can't figure out how I'm supposed to account for that in the application code.
I believe the onlogin event fires when you load the page because you are logged into Facebook. Then, when your user clicks the button, it also triggers the event. If you're not logged in in the first place, then the onlogin event doesn't fire on load.
UPDATE: to avoid this, simply don't hook the getProfile to the onlogin event except inside an if statement based on the FB.getLoginStatus method http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.getLoginStatus/ Simply put, if you're logged in, don't attach an onlogin event, otherwise do an FB.Event.subscribe http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.Event.subscribe/ on the onlogin event and your method will run whenever the user logs in through your XFBML-generated login button.
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
if (response.status === 'connected') {
//print the response data into the paragraph here
} else if (response.status === 'not_authorized') {
// the user is logged in to Facebook,
// but has not authenticated your app
FB.event.subscribe( 'auth.login', function(){
getProfile();
});
} else {
// the user isn't logged in to Facebook.
}
});

Auto Login Facebook User After Accepting Permissions

I'm trying to login users automatically into my site who have already allowed our facebook app, initially I was going to use :
var cb = function(response) {
if (response.status === 'connected') {
FB.api('/me', function(response) {
$.post( url, { 'op':'facebook','name':response['name'],'id':response['id'],'email':response['email']},
function( data ) {
parent.location.reload();
});
});
} else {
alert('You are not logged in');
}
};
FB.login(cb, { scope: 'publish_actions,publish_stream,read_stream,email' });
Although using that it opens a facebook popup, blocked by many popup blockers and browsers when done in an automatic manner like this and will also display for users who have no allowed our app.
I want it to be done descretely but I'm not sure how :S
If anyone could show me how to log them in using javascript that would be great :)
Prompting a user to login should be hinged off of a user generated event, like clicking on an element. Most browsers will block attempts to automatically open new windows unless there is enough confidence that the user has requested the action.
If you want to automatically detect a visitor's login status when they load your page, you should hook onto the various auth events exposed by the Javascript SDK ("auth.authResponseChange", "auth.login", etc), or manually request the visitor's status using the "FB.getLoginStatus" method. You can read more about these events at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.getLoginStatus/
Managed to get it working! Read the facebook tutorial again and this is what I came up with
window.onload=function(){
var url = "http://mysite.com/";
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
if (response.status === 'connected') {
FB.api('/me', function(response) {
$.post( url, { 'op':'facebook','name':response['name'],'id':response['id'],'email':response['email']},
function( data ) {
parent.location.reload();
});
});
}
});
};

Facebook OAuth Login Success not returning to originating window for IE only

I'm using new Facebook login:
window.fbAsyncInit = function () {
FB.init({
appId: '#facebookAppId', // App ID
status: true, // check login status
cookie: true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml: true, // parse XFBML
oauth: true
});
runFbInitCriticalCode();
};
function runFbInitCriticalCode() {
// Additional initialization code here
FB.Event.subscribe('auth.login', function () {
window.location = "/facebookPostAuth.aspx";
});
FB.Event.subscribe('auth.logout', function (response) {
});
// Hack to fix http://bugs.developers.facebook.net/show_bug.cgi?id=20168 for IE7/8/9
FB.UIServer.setLoadedNode = function (a, b) { FB.UIServer._loadedNodes[a.id] = b; };
};
// Load the SDK Asynchronously
(function (d) {
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk'; if (d.getElementById(id)) { return; }
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
d.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(js);
} (document));
Anyone knows why after the popup login SUCCESS and the login popup closes, the success result does not return to the login page or originator page? This only happens in IE.
The problem is to do with the P3P header required for IE.
We always add this header in our projects (which are MVC3 ASP.NET) by doing this:
protected override void OnResultExecuting(ResultExecutingContext filterContext)
{
base.OnResultExecuting(filterContext);
// You need this to allow IE to have cross domain cookies and sessions
filterContext.HttpContext.Response.AddHeader("P3P:CP", "IDC DSP COR ADM DEVi TAIi PSA PSD IVAi IVDi CONi HIS OUR IND CNT");
filterContext.HttpContext.Response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", FacebookSettings.CurrentConfig().CanvasUrl);
}
You can find more info here:
Iframe Facebook application and cookies [Internet Explorer]
Found the FB.Event.subscribe('auth.login') not 100% dependable on IE as it sometimes doesn't hit.
When I'm debugging JavaScript in IE it works. When I'm not debugging with IE Developer tool, it usually fails to hit.
I've set a JavaScript time interval as insurance for IE to check FB token received (this works perfectly since I always get the accesstoken after login successfully even though the login event subscribe doesn't work in IE when not debugging).
Still... If anyone know a why to the question, pls feel free to post.
UPDATE
Instead of using the Facebook button that needs to be initialised, I've set up custom anchor/button which calls the log-in function explicitly using JavaScript click event handler. That solves the IE peculiarity and I no longer need a time-interval for checking when the token received. Moreover, I can style it right from the outset, instead of styling over the original FB initialised log-in button.
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.login/
On the click event, I call:
FB.login(function(response) {
if (response.authResponse) {
//Token, Login Status can be grabbed from response.authResponse
} else {
console.log('User cancelled login or did not fully authorize.');
}
}, {scope: 'email'});

FB.logout() called without an access token

I'm trying to log out of a website i've created with Facebook integrated.
Logging in works fine, but when I want to log out Firebug consistently gives me this error:
FB.logout() called without an access token.
I'm using the Facebook JavaScript SDK, and the code I've got to logout looks like this:
$(document).ready($(function () {
$("#fblogout").click(facebooklogout);
}));
function facebooklogout() {
FB.logout(function (response) {
}
)};
This is the logout code specified at the Facebook Developers Documentation just with a button being assigned the method on document.ready
Before this code I have the FB.init() method, that all runs fine.
If anyone's got a solution as to why FB.logout doesn't have an access token, it'd be appreciated.
To logout from the application which uses facebook graph API, use this JavaScript on the logout page just after the <form> tag:
window.onload=function()
{
// initialize the library with your Facebook API key
FB.init({ apiKey: 'b65c1efa72f570xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' });
//Fetch the status so that we can log out.
//You must have the login status before you can logout,
//and if you authenticated via oAuth (server side), this is necessary.
//If you logged in via the JavaScript SDK, you can simply call FB.logout()
//once the login status is fetched, call handleSessionResponse
FB.getLoginStatus(handleSessionResponse);
}
//handle a session response from any of the auth related calls
function handleSessionResponse(response) {
//if we dont have a session (which means the user has been logged out, redirect the user)
if (!response.session) {
window.location = "/mysite/Login.aspx";
return;
}
//if we do have a non-null response.session, call FB.logout(),
//the JS method will log the user out of Facebook and remove any authorization cookies
FB.logout(handleSessionResponse);
}
The code works and is live on my site.
I went for the less trivial solution:
function facebookLogout(){
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
if (response.status === 'connected') {
FB.logout(function(response) {
// this part just clears the $_SESSION var
// replace with your own code
$.post("/logout").done(function() {
$('#status').html('<p>Logged out.</p>');
});
});
}
});
}
Figured it out after so many tries.
Generally response.authResponse.accessToken contains token. So, its error about the accessToken not being there.
Think logically, where does that response come from in your code? Out of nowhere.
So, we need to get that response object from a function and get this working.
I don't know how it worked for others, but this worked for me.
Just replace the code with this
function logout(){
FB.getLoginStatus(function(response) {
FB.logout(function(response){
console.log("Logged Out!");
window.location = "/";
});
});
}
What we do here is, get the login status if the user is logged in and get the corresponding response in return, which contains all the necessary tokens and data. Once this is fetched, the token is used to log out the user.
I've tried something like this:
function fbLogout(){
if(typeof FB.logout == 'function'){
if (FB.getAuthResponse()) {
FB.logout(function(response) { window.location.href = PROJECT_PATH + '/index/logout'; });
return;
}
};
window.location.href = PROJECT_PATH + '/index/logout';
return;
}
Should be something more like this. There was a change to the JS API where you have to use authResponse instead of just session.
//handle a session response from any of the auth related calls
function handleSessionResponse(response) {
//if we dont have a session (which means the user has been logged out, redirect the user)
if (!response.authResponse) {
return;
}
//if we do have a non-null response.session, call FB.logout(),
//the JS method will log the user out of Facebook and remove any authorization cookies
FB.logout(response.authResponse);
}
The error says that you don't have an access token, you have to check for one using the FB.getAccessToken() function.
If there is no access token the function returns null. See example below:
function facebooklogout() {
try {
if (FB.getAccessToken() != null) {
FB.logout(function(response) {
// user is now logged out from facebook do your post request or just redirect
window.location.replace(href);
});
} else {
// user is not logged in with facebook, maybe with something else
window.location.replace(href);
}
} catch (err) {
// any errors just logout
window.location.replace(href);
}
}
With Typescript this function do work fine ..
signOutFacebook(): void {
/*SIGN OUT USER FACEBOOK.*/
FB.getLoginStatus(function (response) {
if (response.status === 'connected') {
FB.logout(function (response) {
console.log("Logged Out!");
});
} else {
console.log("The person is not logged into your webpage or we are unable to tell. !");
}
});
}/*FINAL 'signOutFacebook()'. */
