[PATCH 2/2] facebook: add feed support (5.82 KB, patch)

Description Alban Crequy 2013-03-22 13:13:37 UTC 
In addition to the Chat support, the Facebook provider should support feeds. GOA should request an OAuth access token with the "read_stream" capability and have a checkbox for the feed in gnome-control-center. Then libsocialweb will be able to fetch the OAuth access token from GOA instead of gnome-keyring/Bisho.

The following patches fix that.

Comment 3 Debarshi Ray 2013-03-22 13:58:14 UTC 
Do we have an application in mind for this?
Comment 4 Alban Crequy 2013-03-22 18:00:04 UTC 
I am working on a simple application to display Facebook feeds and I would like to integrate with GOA.
Comment 5 Debarshi Ray 2014-04-18 10:51:26 UTC 
I am going to decline this as WONTFIX for the moment. Unless there is a core (*) GNOME 3 application that will be dealing with Facebook feeds, it does not make sense to offer this switch to all users. Otherwise they will see the switch and wonder why is it not being used by any application.

We can revisit this if the situation changes.

(*) A core application is one that is expected to be part of the default GNOME installation, as opposed to any other application.
