You can do it using Facebook API. Firstly, you need obtain the token of your Facebook application (FACEBOOK_APP_ACCESS_TOKEN
) https://developers.facebook.com/tools/accesstoken/
or from social_user.extra_data['access_token']
Then with this token you can send the requests you need, for example, this code gets all the friends of the authenticated user with their id, name, location, picture:
social_user = request.user.social_auth.filter(
provider='facebook',
).first()
if social_user:
url = u'https://graph.facebook.com/{0}/' \
u'friends?fields=id,name,location,picture' \
u'&access_token={1}'.format(
social_user.uid,
social_user.extra_data['access_token'],
)
request = urllib2.Request(url)
friends = json.loads(urllib2.urlopen(request).read()).get('data')
for friend in friends:
# do something
Depending on what fields you want to get you can set the permissions here:
https://developers.facebook.com/apps/ -> Your App -> App Details -> App Centre Permissions
or set your permissions in settings.py
:
SOCIAL_AUTH_FACEBOOK_SCOPE = [
'email',
'user_friends',
'friends_location',
]

Just some extra for the reply above. To get the token from extra_data you need to import the model with that data (took me a while to find this):
from social.apps.django_app.default.models import UserSocialAuth
- Django โ how can I access the form field from inside a custom widget
- Gunicorn or uwsgi both ~30x slower than Django WSGI server
