Using the Facebook API after JavaScript Login - apache-flex

This is something I have been trying to figure out, but I am not sure exactly how to do it. I have a flex application that logs into facebook, but after that I can't access any of the facebook api. Right now I am using this HTML to log in:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">
<head>
<!-- Include support librarys first -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
//This example uses the javascript sdk to login before embedding the swf
var APP_ID = "[My App ID Here]";
var REDIRECT_URI = "http://apps.facebook.com/isotesthoskins/";
var PERMS = "publish_stream,offline_access"; //comma separated list of extended permissions
function init() {
FB.init({appId:APP_ID, status: true, cookie: true});
FB.getLoginStatus(handleLoginStatus);
}
function handleLoginStatus(response) {
if (response.session) { //Show the SWF
//A 'name' attribute with the same value as the 'id' is REQUIRED for Chrome/Mozilla browsers
swfobject.embedSWF("isotest.swf", "flashContent", "760", "500", "9.0", null, null, null, {name:"flashContent"});
} else { //ask the user to login
var params = window.location.toString().slice(window.location.toString().indexOf('?'));
top.location = 'https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/authorize?client_id='+APP_ID+'&scope='+PERMS+'&redirect_uri='+REDIRECT_URI+params;
}
}
$(init);
</script>
And everything logs in fine, but when I try this in the application after I am logged in, nothing happens.
Facebook.api("/me", function(response){
changeText.text = response.name;
});
I don't need to init because it was done by the javascript login, right? I might be wrong about that though.

Looks like you are calling the API using the Flex SDK.
That is not going to work, as the token is not shared between JS and Flex.
You should login on the Flex side or thunk into the JS to make the call.

whats the error how I fix it ?
trying to add whatsaao widget throough GTM in all pages except one page. but the tag have an error.
Your mistake is that you use an arrow function in your code. You can't do that in GTM.
Rewrite this:
window.onload = () => {
_waEmbed(wa_btnSetting);
};
into this:
window.onload = function(){
_waEmbed(wa_btnSetting);
};

Google sign-in sends multiple requests on redirect

I'm trying to implement Google sign-in on my web application, as an add-on to normal server-side authentication. The problem is,I'm not able to redirect the page to a Servlet to go to the user homepage. Instead, whenever I try to redirect ONCE,I get continuous requests to the next Servlet(I used print statements on the Servlet to check this).It seems as if the page reloads after every request sent to the Servlet. I also tried using form data to fix this, but that doesn't work either.
How do I stop this from happening? I'm a newbie, so any dumbing down will be much appreciated. In case this is a duplicate, please do send the link. I have tried to find a similar question, but have had no luck so far.
Note: I have removed all irrelevant lines of code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=UTF-8'>
<script src="https://apis.google.com/js/platform.js" async defer></script>
<meta name="google-signin-scope" content="profile email">
<meta name="google-signin-client_id"
content="CLIENT_ID_HERE">
<script>
function onSignIn(googleUser) {
var profile = googleUser.getBasicProfile();
//document.cookie = "emailId=" + profile.getEmail();
redirectPost(profile.getEmail());
//window.location = "http://localhost:8080/auth/gmailhome";
}
function redirectPost(data) {
var inputElement = document.getElementById('emailId');
var form = document.getElementById("gmailLoginForm");
inputElement.value = data;
form.submit();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="gmaillogin" id="gmailLoginForm">
<input type="hidden" id="emailId" name="emailId">
</form>
<div class="g-signin2" data-onsuccess="onSignIn"></div>
</body>
</html>
I figured out how to solve this issue, and it just occurred to me that I can leave this here in case someone needs it in the future.
The problem we have is that onSignin() gets called as long as the user is signed in, and the status of the user doesn't reflect that they are signed in. I'm not sure why the state isn't changed automatically-perhaps there is some other purpose to this, or this is just low-priority right now.
So, what we do is add a listener that monitors whether or not the user is signed-in.
Something like this
function onLoad() {
gapi.load('auth2', function () {
gapi.auth2.init();
gapi.auth2.isSignedIn.listen(function (isSignedIn) {
this.setState({ status: isSignedIn })
})
})
}

How to prevent Google AdWords script from prevent reloading in SPA?

I have a SPA built on React JS stack. I'm using react-router to navigate through pages and i need to implement Google AdWords on my website.
<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
goog_snippet_vars = function() {
var w = window;
w.google_conversion_id = 333333;
w.google_conversion_label = "33333";
w.google_remarketing_only = false;
}
// DO NOT CHANGE THE CODE BELOW.
goog_report_conversion = function(url) {
goog_snippet_vars();
window.google_conversion_format = "3";
var opt = new Object();
opt.onload_callback = function() {
if (typeof(url) != 'undefined') {
window.location = url;
}
}
var conv_handler = window['google_trackConversion'];
if (typeof(conv_handler) == 'function') {
conv_handler(opt);
}
}
/* ]]> */
</script>
I embed this code in body and i run goog_report_conversion when i click on button which navigates me to another page. Which is unwanted behaviour for SPA.
<Link
className="btn btn-primary"
to="/settings"
onClick={() => goog_report_conversion('site.name/settings')}
>Go to settings</Link>
The problem is that once I do it, it fully reloads my webpage.
I know that this line causes the problem
window.location = url;
But without it script doesn't work.
I also tried to create this event in Google Tag Manager and follow advices given here Google Tag Manager causes full page reload in SPA - React but it didn't help me.
Have anyone faced same problem implementing AdWords in SPA? How did you solve it?
I feel that the implementation example for the asynchronous Remarketing/Conversion snippet is needlessly complex. Here's something that we used in a similar scenario.
First we define a little helper function that we can reuse:
<script type="text/javascript">
function triggerConversion(conversionID, conversionLabel) {
if (typeof(window.google_trackConversion) === "function") {
window.google_trackConversion({
google_conversion_id: conversionID,
google_conversion_label: conversionLabel,
google_remarketing_only: false
});
}
}
</script>
then we include Google's async conversion script (ideally somewhere where it doesn't block rendering):
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion_async.js"
charset="utf-8">
</script>
And now you can track conversions on any element, like so, to adapt your example:
<Link
className="btn btn-primary"
onClick={() => triggerConversion(333333, "33333")}
>Go to settings</Link>

Loading Google Places Autocomplete Async Angular 2

I am trying to instantiate a Google Places Autocomplete input within an Angular 2 component. I use this code to do it:
loadGoogle() {
let autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete((this.ref.nativeElement), { types: ['geocode'] });
let that = this
//add event listener to google autocomplete and capture address input
google.maps.event.addListener(autocomplete, 'place_changed', function() {
let place = autocomplete.getPlace();
that.place = place;
that.placesearch = jQuery('#pac-input').val();
});
autocomplete.addListener()
}
Normally, I believe, I would use the callback function provided by the Google API to ensure that it is loaded before this function runs, but I do not have access to it within a component's scope. I am able to load the autocomplete input 90% of the time, but on slower connections I sometimes error out with
google is not defined
Has anyone figured out how to ensure the Google API is loaded within a component before instantiating.
Not sure whether this will help, but I just use a simple script tag in my index.html to load Google API and I never get any error. I believe you do the same as well. I post my codes here, hope it helps.
Note: I use Webpack to load other scripts, except for Google Map API.
<html>
<head>
<base href="/">
<title>Let's Go Holiday</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<!-- Google Map -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=<your-key>&libraries=places"></script>
</head>
<body>
<my-app>Loading...</my-app>
</body>
</html>
And then in your component:
...
declare var google: any;
export class SearchBoxComponent implements OnInit {
ngOnInit() {
// Initialize the search box and autocomplete
let searchBox: any = document.getElementById('search-box');
let options = {
types: [
// return only geocoding results, rather than business results.
'geocode',
],
componentRestrictions: { country: 'my' }
};
var autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(searchBox, options);
// Add listener to the place changed event
autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', () => {
let place = autocomplete.getPlace();
let lat = place.geometry.location.lat();
let lng = place.geometry.location.lng();
let address = place.formatted_address;
this.placeChanged(lat, lng, address);
});
}
...
}
I used it the same way as explained above but as per google page speed i was getting this suggestion,
Remove render-blocking JavaScript:
http://maps.googleapis.com/…es=geometry,places&region=IN&language=en
So i changed my implementation,
<body>
<app-root></app-root>
<script src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?client=xxxxx2&libraries=geometry,places&region=IN&language=en" async></script>
</body>
/* Now in my component.ts */
triggerGoogleBasedFn(){
let _this = this;
let interval = setInterval(() => {
if(window['google']){
_this.getPlaces();
clearInterval(interval);
}
},300)
}
You can do one more thing, emit events once the value(google) is received,& trigger your google task
inside them.

How to set an API key when using Google's script loader?

I registered my project and generated a browser key at https://code.google.com/apis/console/.
Now how do I use that key when using the Google Script Loader?
I've been doing this, which works (with or without the key parameter), but even after several weeks the API console shows no requests:
<script src=//www.google.com/jsapi?key=my_key"></script>
<script>
google.load('maps', '3.10', { other_params : 'libraries=places&sensor=false', callback : ... })
</script>
The key is useless for the jsapi, you must append it to other_params:
<script>
google.load('maps', '3', {
other_params: 'key=my_key',
callback: function(){}
});
</script>
When using charts/loader you have to do something like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.charts.load('current', {
'packages':['geochart'],
// Note: you will need to get a mapsApiKey for your project.
// See: https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/basic_load_libs#load-settings
'mapsApiKey': 'AIzaSyD-9tSrke72PouQMnMX-a7eZSW0jkFMBWY'
});
google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawRegionsMap);
...
</script>
Note the mapsApiKey property.
As described in https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/geochart
