This is a fork from jeduan/cordova-plugin-facebook4, where i excluded the com.google.zxing package (that is used by facebook sdk for qr scaning) that is causing the issue "Multiple dex files define Lcom/google/zxing/BarcodeFormat"
Use Facebook SDK in Cordova projects
See npm package for versions - https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-plugin-facebook-connect
Make sure you've registered your Facebook app with Facebook and have an APP_ID https://developers.facebook.com/apps.
$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-facebook-connect-no-zxing --save --variable APP_ID="123456789" --variable APP_NAME="myApplication"As the APP_NAME is used as a string in XML files, if your app name contains any special characters like "&", make sure you escape them, e.g. "&".
If you need to change your APP_ID after installation, it's recommended that you remove and then re-add the plugin as above. Note that changes to the APP_ID value in your config.xml file will not be propagated to the individual platform builds.
This is a fork of the official plugin for Facebook in Apache Cordova that implements the latest Facebook SDK. Unless noted, this is a drop-in replacement. You don't have to replace your client code.
The Facebook plugin for Apache Cordova allows you to use the same JavaScript code in your Cordova application as you use in your web application.
If you are looking to test the plugin, would like to reproduce a bug or build issues, there is a demo project for such purpose: cordova-plugin-facebook-connect-lab.
- Cordova >= 5.0.0
- cordova-android >= 7.0.0
- cordova-ios >= 5.0.0
- cordova-browser >= 3.6
This plugin use the SDKs provided by Facebook. More information about these in their documentation for iOS or Android
This plugin will always be released for iOS and for Android with a synchronized usage of the Facebook SDKs.
Please note that this plugin itself does not specify which Graph API version is used. The Graph API version is set by the Facebook SDK for iOS and Android (see Facebook documentation about versioning)

share_feedWeb: true, // iOS only
}
The default dialog mode is FBSDKShareDialogModeAutomatic. You can share that by adding a specific dialog mode parameter. The available share dialog modes are: share_sheet, share_feedBrowser, share_native and share_feedWeb. Read more about share dialog modes

facebookConnectPlugin.api(String requestPath, Array permissions, String httpMethod, Function success, Function failure)
Allows access to the Facebook Graph API. This API allows for additional permission because, unlike login, the Graph API can accept multiple permissions.

["public_profile", "user_birthday"]
httpMethod is optional and defaults to "GET".
Success function returns an Object.
Failure function returns an error String.
Note: "In order to make calls to the Graph API on behalf of a user, the user has to be logged into your app using Facebook login, and you must include the access_token parameter in your requestPath. "

App events allow you to understand the makeup of users engaging with your app, measure the performance of your Facebook mobile app ads, and reach specific sets of your users with Facebook mobile app ads.
- [iOS] https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ios/app-events
- [Android] https://developers.facebook.com/docs/android/app-events
- [JS] Does not have an Events API, so the plugin functions are empty and will return an automatic success
Activation events are automatically tracked for you in the plugin.
Events are listed on the insights page
logEvent(String name, Object params, Number valueToSum, Function success, Function failure)
- name, name of the event
- params, extra data to log with the event (is optional)
- valueToSum, a property which is an arbitrary number that can represent any value (e.g., a price or a quantity). When reported, all of the valueToSum properties will be summed together. For example, if 10 people each purchased one item that cost $10 (and passed in valueToSum) then they would be summed to report a number of $100. (is optional)
logPurchase(Number value, String currency, Object params, Function success, Function failure)
NOTE: Both value and currency are required. The currency specification is expected to be an ISO 4217 currency code. params is optional.
activateApp(Function success, Function failure)
In your onDeviceReady event add the following
var fbLoginSuccess = function (userData) {
console.log("UserInfo: ", userData);
}
facebookConnectPlugin.login(["public_profile"], fbLoginSuccess,
function loginError (error) {
console.error(error)
}
);If you need the Facebook access token (for example, for validating the login on server side), do:
var fbLoginSuccess = function (userData) {
console.log("UserInfo: ", userData);
facebookConnectPlugin.getAccessToken(function(token) {
console.log("Token: " + token);
});
}
facebookConnectPlugin.login(["public_profile"], fbLoginSuccess,
function (error) {
console.error(error)
}
);For a more instructive example change the above fbLoginSuccess to;
var fbLoginSuccess = function (userData) {
console.log("UserInfo: ", userData);
facebookConnectPlugin.getLoginStatus(false, function onLoginStatus (status) {
console.log("current status: ", status);
facebookConnectPlugin.showDialog({
method: "share"
}, function onShareSuccess () {
console.log("Posted.");
});
});
};Using the graph api this is a very simple task:
facebookConnectPlugin.api("me/?fields=id,birthday&access_token=" + myAccessToken, ["user_birthday"],
function onSuccess (result) {
console.log("Result: ", result);
/* logs:
{
"id": "000000123456789",
"birthday": "01/01/1985"
}
*/
}, function onError (error) {
console.error("Failed: ", error);
}
);Starting from Facebook SDK v4.34 for both iOS and Android, there is a new way of converting pixel events into mobile app events. For more information: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/app-events/hybrid-app-events/
In order to enable this feature in your Cordova app, please set the FACEBOOK_HYBRID_APP_EVENTS variable to "true" (default is false):
$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-facebook-connect --save --variable APP_ID="123456789" --variable APP_NAME="myApplication" --variable FACEBOOK_HYBRID_APP_EVENTS="true"Please check this repo for an example app using this feature.
NOTE(iOS): This feature only works with WKWebView so if using an old version of Cordova, an additional plugin (e.g cordova-plugin-wkwebview-engine) is needed.
This Plugin supports Facebook's GDPR Compliance Delaying Automatic Event Collection.
In order to enable this feature in your Cordova app, please set the FACEBOOK_AUTO_LOG_APP_EVENTS variable to "false" (default is true).
$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-facebook-connect --save --variable APP_ID="123456789" --variable APP_NAME="myApplication" --variable FACEBOOK_AUTO_LOG_APP_EVENTS="false"Then, re-enable auto-logging after an end User provides consent by calling the setAutoLogAppEventsEnabled method and set it to true.
facebookConnectPlugin.setAutoLogAppEventsEnabled(true, function() {
console.log('setAutoLogAppEventsEnabled success');
}, function() {
console.error('setAutoLogAppEventsEnabled failure');
});To disable collection of advertiser-id, please set the FACEBOOK_ADVERTISER_ID_COLLECTION variable to "false" (default is true).
$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-facebook-connect-no-zxing --save --variable APP_ID="123456789" --variable APP_NAME="myApplication" --variable FACEBOOK_ADVERTISER_ID_COLLECTION="false"Then, re-enable collection by calling the setAdvertiserIDCollectionEnabled method and set it to true.
facebookConnectPlugin.setAdvertiserIDCollectionEnabled(true, function() {
console.log('setAdvertiserIDCollectionEnabled success');
}, function() {
console.error('setAdvertiserIDCollectionEnabled failure');
});To enable advertiser tracking, call the setAdvertiserTrackingEnabled method.
facebookConnectPlugin.setAdvertiserTrackingEnabled(true, function() {
console.log('setAdvertiserTrackingEnabled success');
}, function() {
console.error('setAdvertiserTrackingEnabled failure');
});See the Facebook Developer documentation for more details.
When using the same Facebook app with multiple iOS apps, use the FACEBOOK_URL_SCHEME_SUFFIX variable to set a unique URL Suffix for each app. This ensures that Facebook redirects back to the correct app after closing the login window.
$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-facebook-connect --save --variable APP_ID="123456789" --variable APP_NAME="myApplication" --variable FACEBOOK_URL_SCHEME_SUFFIX="mysecondapp"
