Facebook Checkin from Android App

I am trying to perform a Facebook Checkin from an Android app that I am developing. I know we have to use the graph API. But I am not sure what all are required to get it working. Is there an example code for this?
I reviewed this link: Publishing checkins on facebook through android app
How do I use this code? Any help on this is appreciated.
public class FBCheckin extends Fragment implements View.OnClickListener {
Button checkin;
public String pageID;
String FACEBOOK_LINK = "https://www.facebook.com/pizzaguydelivery";
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
final View rootview = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fblogin, container, false);
checkin.setOnClickListener(this);
return rootview;
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithPublishPermissions(getActivity(), Arrays.asList("publish_actions"));
pageID = FACEBOOK_LINK.substring(FACEBOOK_LINK.lastIndexOf("/") + 1, FACEBOOK_LINK.length());
new GraphRequest(AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(), "/" + pageID, null, HttpMethod.GET, new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
/* handle the result */
try {
if (response.getError() == null) {
JSONObject obj = response.getJSONObject();
if (obj.has("id")) {
pageID = obj.getString("id");
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("message", "Eating");
params.putString("place", pageID);
// params.putString("link", "URL");
if (pageID == null) {
//Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Failed to check in",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
new GraphRequest(AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(), "/me/feed", params, HttpMethod.POST, new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
if (response.getError() == null) {
//success
} else {
//Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Failed to check in",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}).executeAsync();
}
}
}
} catch (JSONException q) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
//Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),q.getMessage(),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
q.printStackTrace();
}
}
}).executeAsync();
}
}

The following code only checks in to locations with facebook pages via pageid. ( Like restaurants.) But think you can do it with place id too.
LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithPublishPermissions(
getActivity(), Arrays.asList("publish_actions"));
String PAGEID = FACEBOOK_LINK.substring(
FACEBOOK_LINK.lastIndexOf("/") + 1,
FACEBOOK_LINK.length());
new GraphRequest(AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(), "/"
+ PAGEID, null, HttpMethod.GET,
new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
/* handle the result */
try {
if (response.getError() == null) {
JSONObject obj = response
.getJSONObject();
if (obj.has("id")) {
pageID = obj.getString("id");
/* make the API call */
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("message", "Eating");
params.putString("place", pageID);
params.putString("link","URL");
if (pageID == null) {
MessageBox
.Show(getActivity(),
"Failed to check in to this restaurant");
} else {
new GraphRequest(AccessToken
.getCurrentAccessToken(),
"/me/feed", params,
HttpMethod.POST,
new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(
GraphResponse response) {
if (response.getError() == null) {
//success
} else {
MessageBox
.Show(getActivity(),
"Failed to check in to this restaurant");
}
}
}).executeAsync();
}
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
MessageBox.Show(getActivity(),
"Error: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}).executeAsync();
I know this code is a bit messy but it get the work done. Here the first thing that I am doing is asking user for facebook publish permission. Then I check if the pageID that I am checking into is valid through a graph request. If it is valid then I am checking in the user to his desired location through another request.

Parse Facebook unable get user email and gender

Currently, I am using this tutorial to create the facebook login.
"https://github.com/ParsePlatform/ParseUI-Android"
The Parse user JSON didn't return me an email or gender. I also have research around but I still can't find the solution (well, at least, some other still returning null). Anyone can explain the reason and how to solve it?
facebookLoginButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
loadingStart(false); // Facebook login pop-up already has a spinner
if (config.isFacebookLoginNeedPublishPermissions()) {
ParseFacebookUtils.logInWithPublishPermissionsInBackground(getActivity(),
Arrays.asList(
"public_profile", "email"), facebookLoginCallbackV4);
Log.i("fbUser","Publish");
} else {
ParseFacebookUtils.logInWithReadPermissionsInBackground(getActivity(),
Arrays.asList( "public_profile", "email"), facebookLoginCallbackV4);
Log.i("fbUser", "Read");
}
}
});
private LogInCallback facebookLoginCallbackV4 = new LogInCallback() {
#Override
public void done(ParseUser user, ParseException e) {
if (isActivityDestroyed()) {
return;
}
if (user == null) {
loadingFinish();
if (e != null) {
showToast(R.string.com_parse_ui_facebook_login_failed_toast);
debugLog(getString(R.string.com_parse_ui_login_warning_facebook_login_failed) +
e.toString());
}
} else if (user.isNew()) {
GraphRequest.newMeRequest(AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(),
new GraphRequest.GraphJSONObjectCallback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(JSONObject fbUser,
GraphResponse response) {
/*
If we were able to successfully retrieve the Facebook
user's name, let's set it on the fullName field.
*/
ParseUser parseUser = ParseUser.getCurrentUser();
if (fbUser != null && parseUser != null && fbUser.optString("name").length() > 0) {
Log.i("FbUSer", response.getJSONObject().toString());
Log.d("FbUSer-Email",fbUser.optString("email"));
Log.i("FbUSer-gender",fbUser.optString("gender"));
parseUser.put(USER_OBJECT_NAME_FIELD, fbUser.optString("name"));
parseUser.saveInBackground(new SaveCallback() {
#Override
public void done(ParseException e) {
if (e != null) {
debugLog(getString(
R.string.com_parse_ui_login_warning_facebook_login_user_update_failed) +
e.toString());
}
loginSuccess();
}
});
}
loginSuccess();
}
}
).executeAsync();
} else {
loginSuccess();
}
}
};
Logcat Section return:
{"id":"1234524124124","name":"FbUser NAme"}

I just found the answer. I just need to set the parameter so I can get the data I want.
GraphRequest request = GraphRequest.newMeRequest(...);
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString("fields","id,name,link,email,first_name,last_name,gender");
request.setParameters(parameters);
request.executeAsync();

for more user info you have to add permissoin to access those detail like email, user_about_me at facebook developer console
select app at facebook developer and go -> app details -> Configure

Complications with ParseFacebookUtils, reading permissions

i'm tryng to integrate facebook login in my android application. For now i get a new row in Parse Backend about the logged user which contains his real name, some weird value(ex:SnvvKEsIv6tX7...) in his userName, and an authData which is Json and contains the following values:
access_token, expiration date, id.
After debugging i got the url of the json response, it only contains two values, the name and the id, however i declared the list like this:
List permissions = Arrays.asList("public_profile", "email");
So for now the graph is only returnin two values, i thought it was due to the permissions but as i sayed i did declared. Here is my code:
public class LoginActivity extends Activity {
private Dialog progressDialog;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext());
ParseFacebookUtils.initialize(this);
// Check if there is a currently logged in user
// and it's linked to a Facebook account.
ParseUser currentUser = ParseUser.getCurrentUser();
if ((currentUser != null) && ParseFacebookUtils.isLinked(currentUser)) {
// Go to the user info activity
showUserDetailsActivity();
}
}
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
ParseFacebookUtils.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
public void onLoginClick(View v) {
progressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(LoginActivity.this, "", "Logging in...", true);
List<String> permissions = Arrays.asList("public_profile", "email");
// NOTE: for extended permissions, like "user_about_me", your app must be reviewed by the Facebook team
// (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions/)
ParseFacebookUtils.logInWithReadPermissionsInBackground(this, permissions, new LogInCallback() {
#Override

Android Parse Login with email or username

I'm trying to make an android app using parse that allows one to login using either their username or email. I have tried querying to get an object with a provided email address, then get that object's username to login with. However, I am getting this error:
'getFirstInBackground(com.parse.GetCallback)' in 'com.parse.ParseQuery' cannot be applied to '(anonymous com.parse.GetCallback "com.parse.ParseObject>)'
I'm new to app dev and parse, so I'm not entirely sure what this means. From what I understand it wont let me use getFirstInBackground because that works with parseUser's and I'm working with ParseObjects, but the code I'm using I pulled from a prior stackoverflow question where this was a working answer: Login username AND email in Parse Android
Here is my code:
// Do this to allow for username or email log in
if (mEmail.indexOf("#") != -1) {
ParseQuery<ParseUser> query = ParseUser.getQuery();
query.whereEqualTo("email", mEmail);
query.getFirstInBackground(new GetCallback<ParseObject>() {
public void done(ParseObject object, ParseException e) {
if (object == null) {
Log.d("score", "The getFirst request failed.");
} else {
String actualUsername = object.getString("username");
ParseUser.logInInBackground(actualUsername, mPassword, new LogInCallback() {
#Override
public void done(ParseUser parseUser, ParseException e) {
if (e != null) {
// TODO: Show error message
Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this, "Credentials incorrect", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
// Start Intent for activity
// TODO: Choose activity
Intent intent = new Intent(LoginActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
});
}
}
});

According to docs, the method's signature is as follows:
class com.parse.ParseQuery<T> {
public void getFirstInBackground(GetCallback<T> callback)
}
That means that the generic type of GetCallback must be the same as in your ParseQuery. So it probably should be
query.getFirstInBackground(new GetCallback<ParseUser>()) { /* ... */ }

You are attempting to query a ParseUser with a GetCallBack of type ParseObject.
Replace all instances of ParseObject with ParseUser in your code.

query.getFirstInBackground(new GetCallback<ParseUser>() {
public void done(ParseUser user, ParseException e) {
if (object == null) {
Log.d("score", "The getFirst request failed.");
} else {
String actualUsername = user.getUsername();
ParseUser.logInInBackground(actualUsername, mPassword, new LogInCallback() {
#Override
public void done(ParseUser parseUser, ParseException e) {
if (e != null) {
// TODO: Show error message
Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this, "Credentials incorrect", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
// Start Intent for activity
// TODO: Choose activity
Intent intent = new Intent(LoginActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
});
}
}
});
Hope this helps

final String userOrEmal = editTextEmailOrUserName.getText().toString().trim();
final String mpassword = editTextPassword.getText().toString().trim();
if (userOrEmal.contains("#")) {
ParseQuery<ParseUser> query = ParseUser.getQuery();
query.whereEqualTo("email", userOrEmal);
query.getFirstInBackground(new GetCallback<ParseUser>() {
#Override
public void done(ParseUser object, ParseException e) {
if (object != null) {
ParseUser.logInInBackground(object.getString("username"), mpassword, new LogInCallback() {
public void done(ParseUser user, ParseException e) {
if (user != null) {
Log.v("login", "secessful");
} else {
Log.v("login", "fail");
}
}
});
} else {
}
}
});
} else {
ParseUser.logInInBackground(userOrEmal,mpassword, new LogInCallback() {
public void done(ParseUser user, ParseException e) {
if (user != null) {
Log.v("login", "secessful");
} else {
Log.v("login", "fail");
}
}
});
}

Unable to fetch Friendlist Birthday Facebook 3.0 android

i am getting a null when i try to fetch my friend's birthday . this is where i set the permissions
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_main, container, false);
LoginButton authButton = (LoginButton) view
.findViewById(R.id.authButton);
authButton.setFragment(this);
authButton.setReadPermissions(Arrays.asList("user_likes",
"friends_birthday", "friends_about_me"));
return view;
// return super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
}
and this is how i am trying to fetch birthdays
private void onSessionStateChange(Session session, SessionState state,
Exception exception) {
if (state.isOpened()) {
Log.i(TAG, "Logged in...");
Request.executeMyFriendsRequestAsync(session,
new Request.GraphUserListCallback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(List<GraphUser> users,
Response response) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
// Log.i("Response JSON", response.toString());
names = new String[users.size()];
id = new String[users.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < users.size(); i++) {
names[i] = users.get(i).getBirthday();
//id[i] = users.get(i).ge();
Log.i("Birthday chakk te bai ", "Birthday"
+ names[i]);
}
}
});
} else if (state.isClosed()) {
Log.i(TAG, "Logged out...");
}
}
Please see why i am geeting null . Every thing is fine with keyhash as i tested it for friends name .
App is only in the sandbox mode.

Try this-
Your callback, where you'll get friends and birthday info(if authenticated):
Session.StatusCallback statusCallback = new Session.StatusCallback()
{
// callback when session changes state
#Override
public void call(Session session, SessionState state, Exception exception)
{
if (session.isOpened())
{
getFriendDetails();
}
}
};
Then, open the session and set the permissions:
Session session = new Session(this);
session.openForRead(new Session.OpenRequest(this)
.setCallback(statusCallback)
.setPermissions(Arrays.asList("friends_birthday")));
As a last step, get the friends birthday and other details:
private void getFriendDetails()
{
Request myFriendsRequest = Request.newMyFriendsRequest(Session.getActiveSession(),
new Request.GraphUserListCallback()
{
#Override
public void onCompleted(List<GraphUser> users, Response response)
{
if (response.getError() == null)
{
// Print response
}
}
});
Bundle requestParams = myFriendsRequest.getParameters();
requestParams.putString("fields", "name,birthday");
myFriendsRequest.setParameters(requestParams);
myFriendsRequest.executeAsync();
}
