Any ideas why it doesn’t work to call “facebook_session” from inside my controller? Undefined method, I get.

I had to write this function:

  def facebook_session
    if session[:facebook_session]
      session[:facebook_session]
    elsif params[:fb_sig_user]
      set_facebook_session
    end
  end

What version of Rails are you using and what does the stacktrace look like?

This might be a good question for the facebooker mailing list.

Rails 2.1. I’ll get the stack trace later.

Do I need to do anything other than install facebooker to get access to that method?

Also, is the facebook_session set when they log into the application? Or just after they login to the application? The book doesn’t talk much, afaik, about what ensure_authenticated_to_facebook does and how it differs from ensure_application_installed_to_facebook (or whatever it’s called).

We haven’t completed Rails 2.1 support for Facebooker yet. We’ll try to get that updated soon.

Well, that explains some of the weirdness I’ve been trying to figure out. :-) Should I be using trunk of facebooker then?
