= FbGraph An Ruby WebFinger client library. Following the latest WebFinger spec discussed at IETF WebFinger WG. http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-webfinger If you found something different from the latest spec, open an issue please. == Installation Add this line to your application's Gemfile: gem 'webfinger' And then execute: $ bundle Or install it yourself as: $ gem install webfinger == Usage === Basic You can discover resource metadata. WebFinger.discover! 'acct:nov@connect-op.heroku.com' WebFinger.discover! 'connect-op.heroku.com' WebFinger.discover! 'http://connect-op.heroku.com' You can also specify link relations via "rel" option. WebFinger.discover! 'acct:nov@connect-op.heroku.com', rel: 'http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer' WebFinger.discover! 'acct:nov@connect-op.heroku.com', rel: ['http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer', 'vcard'] === Caching Caching is important in HTTP-based discovery. If you set your own cache object to WebFinger.cache, this gem caches the discovery result until it expires. (the expiry is calculated based on the "expires" value in JRD response) # Set Cache WebFinger.cache = Rails.cache WebFinger.discover! 'acct:nov@connect-op.heroku.com' # do HTTP request WebFinger.discover! 'acct:nov@connect-op.heroku.com' # use cache, no HTTP request === Debugging Once you turn-on debugging, you can see all HTTP request/response in your log. # Turn on debugging WebFinger.debug! # Set logger (OPTIONAL, ::Logger.new(STDOUT) is used as default) WebFinger.logger = Rails.logger You can also specify URL builder to force non-HTTPS access. (NOTE: allow non-HTTPS access only for debugging, not on your production.) WebFinger.url_builder = URI::HTTP # default URI::HTTPS == Contributing 1. Fork it 2.
