IOS Facebook/Twitter/GameCenter Prime[31] Actions

[escpodgames]

Hi,

So I thought I'd create a thread for the creation of these actions (I'm currently making). Would be great to get an idea of what everyone who would potentially use these action would need.
*Red Can not be created*
*OrangeNot created yet*
*Blue Have been created but not tested*
*Green Have been tested and work*

Here is a great facebook/prime[31] setup tutorial video

Just found someone (cant contact them) requesting these actions as a job on elance .... so if that's you I'd be keen to throw some money in the pot otherwise ill keep plugging along ... not sure how much I can do.

So one aspect of the Facebook/Twitter and the Flurry plug-in is the Dictionary.<String, String> .... have had a look online and not sure exactly how to move a Dictionary.<String, String> to a hashtable within an action. Found this ...

var myHash = new Dictionary.<String, String>();
myHash.Add ("propertyname", "something");
// or
myHash["propertyname"] = "something";

So I assume the "propertyname" would be the key?! and the something would be the fsm variable?! (looking at the existing hashTable actions?

Hi,

 If you are using ArrayMaker, study the hashtable actions, but basically your pseudo code is ok,  both variants are fine.

Update -

I can now post to Facebook ... though I have one issue regarding if the Facebook app is installed things don't work unless you manually allow the app ... have asked Prime[31] about it. Waiting on response.

[escpodgames]

Ok so ... I'm guessing ill need a Proxy script to forward events to playmaker as PlayMaker events. .... interesting! (have been looking at the storekit actions

[jeanfabre]

Hi,

 yes. Also, look at how Photon is integrated. it has a lot of similar proxies ( especially on how to communicate then back to playmaker).

bye,

Jean

[escpodgames]

Took a look at the photon one and it was a bit over my head, but the storekit one was simple enough to follow and I can report that my Facebook one works

Next task is to figure out this hash table business :S and then facebook is done!

[escpodgames]

Have studied the hash table actions as much as I can but I'm still struggling to get this to work - included the getFriends action as it is now (totally doesn't work)

Any chance of pointing me in the right direction Jean? the main issue is getting the prime[31] completionHandler variables that can be added to the hash table.

Code: [Select]

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Prime31;

namespace HutongGames.PlayMaker.Actions
{
[ActionCategory("IOS Facebook")]
[Tooltip("Get Facebook friends ID/Names.")]
public class Facebook_GetFriends : HashTableActions
{
[ObjectType(typeof(PlayMakerArrayListProxy))]
public FsmObject arrayList;

[ActionSection("Set up")]

[RequiredField]
[Tooltip("The gameObject with the PlayMaker ArrayList Proxy component")]
[CheckForComponent(typeof(PlayMakerArrayListProxy))]
public FsmOwnerDefault gameObject;

[Tooltip("Author defined Reference of the PlayMaker ArrayList Proxy component (necessary if several component coexists on the same GameObject)")]
[UIHint(UIHint.FsmString)]
public FsmString reference;

[ActionSection("Data")]

[RequiredField]
[Tooltip("The variable to add.")]
public FsmVar variable;

[RequiredField]
[UIHint(UIHint.FsmString)]
[Tooltip("The Key value for that hash set")]
public FsmString key;

[ActionSection("Result")]

[UIHint(UIHint.FsmEvent)]
[Tooltip("The event to trigger when element is added")]
public FsmEvent successEvent;

[UIHint(UIHint.FsmEvent)]
[Tooltip("The event to trigger when element exists already")]
public FsmEvent keyExistsAlreadyEvent;

public override void Reset()
{
gameObject = null;
reference = null;
key = null;
variable = null;
successEvent = null;
keyExistsAlreadyEvent = null;
}

public override void OnEnter()
{
if (SetUpHashTableProxyPointer(Fsm.GetOwnerDefaultTarget(gameObject),reference.Value))
{
if ( proxy.hashTable.ContainsKey(key.Value) )
{
Fsm.Event(keyExistsAlreadyEvent);
}
else
{
AddToHashTable();
Fsm.Event(successEvent);
}
}
Finish();
}

public void AddToHashTable()
{
if (! isProxyValid() )
return;
Facebook.instance.getFriends( completionHandler );
}

public void completionHandler( string error, object results )
{
if( error != null )
Debug.LogError( error );
else
{
myDictionary[key.Value] = variable.Value;
Prime31.Utils.logObject( results );
}
proxy.hashTable.Add(key.Value,PlayMakerUtils.GetValueFromFsmVar(Fsm,variable));
}
}
}

Bumb 

[jeanfabre]

Hi,

 can you tell me more about what is the object results?

bye,

Jean

[escpodgames]

From the Prime[31] docs

// Sends a request to fetch the currently logged in users friends
public void getFriends( Action<string, object> completionHandler )

// common event handler used for all graph requests that logs the data to the console
CompletionHandler

Code: [Select]

void completionHandler( string error, object result )

{

if( error != null )

Debug.LogError( error );

else

Prime31.Utils.logObject( result );

}
What I'm wanting is the list of friends to be added to an array OR Hash Table as I assume that is what the completion Handler is. Getting it into the array has confused me greatly or even getting values.

[jeanfabre]

Hi,

 I don't own this plugin, so I can't really give you even pseudo code to being with if I don't know the content of the "result" variable.

bye,

Jean

[escpodgames]

Hi,

I totally understand.

Small update on the get friends action - after heaps of research, trial/many errors and writing a dll, I now have strong typed friends ...

So ignoring the plugin, I have a list of friends

friends[0].id
(id being a string)

How does one get that into the array? :S this is what I tried ..... but errors

friends[0].id = variable.Value;
proxy.Add(PlayMakerUtils.GetValueFromFsmVar(Fsm,variable),variable.Type.ToString());

OR

friends[0].id = variable.Value;
proxy.Add(variable.Value);

[escpodgames]

proxy.Add(object value, string type, silent bool);

what is the object value?
