ngx-facebook
This is a wrapper for the official Facebook JavaScript SDK. It makes it easier to use Facebook SDK with Angular by providing components, providers and types.
Installation
1. Install via NPM:
- ``` shell
- npm i -S ngx-facebook
- ```
2. Add the Facebook JavaScript SDK to your index.html
- ``` html
- <script type="text/javascript" src="https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js"></script>
- ```
3. Import FacebookModule into your app's root module
- ``` ts
- import { FacebookModule } from 'ngx-facebook';
- @NgModule({
- ...
- imports: [
- FacebookModule.forRoot()
- ],
- ...
- })
- export class AppModule { }
- ```
4. Inject FacebookService and call the init method (optional):
This method must be called before using login or api methods. It is not required for other methods/components.
- ``` ts
- import { FacebookService, InitParams } from 'ngx-facebook';
- ...
- export class MyComponentOrService {
- constructor(private fb: FacebookService) {
- const initParams: InitParams = {
- appId: '1234566778',
- xfbml: true,
- version: 'v2.8'
- };
- fb.init(initParams);
- }
- }
- ```
