Access token from devise+omniauth-facebook authentication for using in fb-graph

devise, facebook-graph-api, fb-graph, omniauth, ruby-on-rails-3.1

Solution

You can do this:

User.create!(:email => data.email, :password => Devise.friendly_token[0,20], :authentication_token => access_token.credentials.token)

You will also need to add :authentication_token or whatever you named it to the attr_accessible

Problem

I used devise and omniauth-facebook in my Rails 3 app for Facebook authentication, based on this tutorial: Adding Facebook auth to Rails 3.1 app, and it's working great! But now I want to have full Facebook integration in my app, with which I can access the user's photos, friends, etc., and for that I am thinking of using fb_graph. fb_graph requires a token, and I wanted to know how to edit my user model to save the token and use it in fb_graph. Any help regarding this matter will be highly appreciated. This is how my User model looks like right now: ``` class User < ActiveRecord::Base # Include default devise modules. Others available are: # :token_authenticatable, :encryptable, :confirmable, :lockable, :timeoutable and :omniauthable devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable, :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable, :omniauthable # Setup accessible (or protected) attributes for your model attr_accessible :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me has_many :photos has_many :scrapbooks def self.find_for_facebook_oauth(access_token, signed_in_resource=nil) data = access_token.extra.raw_info if user = User.where(:email => data.email).first user else # Create a user with a stub password. User.create!(:email => data.email, :password => Devise.friendly_token[0,20]) end end def self.new_with_session(params, session) super.tap do |user| if data = session["devise.facebook_data"] && session["devise.facebook_data"]["extra"]["raw_info"] user.email = data["email"] end end end end ```
