NAME

Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Facebook - Facebook authentication plugin for Jifty

DESCRIPTION

Provides standalone Facebook authentication for your Jifty application. It adds the columns facebook_name, facebook_uid, facebook_session, and facebook_session_expires to your User model.

SYNOPSIS

    Plugins:

            api_key: xxx
            secret: xxx

You may set any options which the new method of WWW::Facebook::API understands.
