# FBBOTW: A [Facebook Messenger](https://developers.facebook.com/products/messenger/) Platform API Wrapper

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/JoabMendes/fbbotw.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/JoabMendes/fbbotw) [![Documentation Status](https://readthedocs.org/projects/fbbotw/badge/?version=latest)](http://fbbotw.readthedocs.io) [![PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/fbbotw.svg)](https://pypi.python.org/pypi?name=fbbotw&:action=display) [![MIT licensed](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hyperium/hyper/master/LICENSE) 


This wrapper makes it simpler to user the *Facebook Messenger platform*  wrapping the endpoints as functions.

For exemple, to send a text message to the user you can easily do:

```python
from fbbotw import fbbotw
# ...

user_fbid = "<user fb id>"
my_message = "Hello World"

fbbotw.post_text_message(fbid=user_fbid, message=my_message)
# The user with the specified fbid will receive the text 'Hello World'

```

This is much less code than the traditional way to call the `Send API` and send a text. Using `requests` and `json` you probably would do like this:

```python
  fbid = "<user psid>"
  message = "Hello World"
  url = 'https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/messages?access_token={0}'
  url = url.format(PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN)
  header = {"Content-Type": "application/json"}
  payload = {}
  payload['recipient'] = {'id': fbid}
  payload['message'] = {'text': message}
  data = json.dumps(payload)
  response = requests.post(url=url, headers=header, data=data)
```

Learn more about the fbbotw methods by reading the [DOCS](http://fbbotw.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)

## Get Started

### 1- Install

```bash
pip install fbbotw
```

### 2 - Configure it

The only configuration needed is to set the `PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN` with
the value you got from the [facebook app dashboard](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/guides/setup#page_access_token). If you are using Django, create the variable in your `settings.py`. If not, define the variable in your enviroment:

#### 2.1 - Django

1 - In your `settings.py` define the variable `PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN` that was 
generated on the app configuration from facebook.

```python
#settings.py
PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN = "<your access token>"
```

#### 2.2 - Not Django

Create an **os environment** variable called `PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN`:

```bash
export PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN='<your access token>'
```

### 3 - Import and Use it

After setting the access token, just import and use `fbbotw` methods:

```python
from fbbotw import fbbotw

fbbotw.post_sender_action(fbid="<user psid>", sender_action="typing_on")

```

See the documentation to learn about the methods provided by the package.
