Laravel Facebook Graph API

Laravel Facebook Graph by Joel Butcher is a Laravel integration for the Graph PHP 8 SDK project. This package makes it easy to integrate the PHP SDK (provided by the same author) and Facebook login into your Laravel projects.

After you install this package and configure your app, you can use the provided Facebook facade/service to access the Facebook API:

// Facade
Facebook::getUser(array $params);
 
// Service container making a GET request
app(\JoelButcher\Facebook\Facebook::class)->get('/me', array $params);

Here's an example from the underlying PHP 8 SDK to get a user name and ID:

$fb = new Facebook\Facebook([
  'app_id' => '{app-id}',
  'app_secret' => '{app-secret}',
  'default_graph_version' => 'v2.10',
  ]);
 
try {
  // Returns a `Facebook\Response` object
  $response = $fb->get('/me?fields=id,name', '{access-token}');
} catch(Facebook\Exception\ResponseException $e) {
  echo 'Graph returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
  exit;
} catch(Facebook\Exception\SDKException $e) {
  echo 'Facebook SDK returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
  exit;
}
 
$user = $response->getGraphUser();
 
// Array access
echo 'Name: ' . $user['name'];
// or get
echo 'Name: ' . $user->getName();
