Fakebook

Introduction

fakebook is a facebook API simulator meant for test purposes.

It should behave similar to what facebook's own API does.

Installing

It's as simple as:

$ pip install fakebook_server

Usage

After installing, you'll get a command called 'fakebook'. For more info, run:

$ fakebook --help

Running fakebook is as easy as:

$ fakebook

If you want to see output:

$ fakebook -vvv

To specify your own configuration file (more on configuration values later):

$ fakebook -c ./path/to/my.conf

Routes

fakebook provides three routes: "/oauth", "/token" and "/me". The flow is:

  • get an oauth code from "/oauth?redirect_uri=" using an URI that points to where you want to receive the code;
  • get an acess_token from "/token?code=";
  • get user details using the provided access token from "/me?access_token=".

Configuration

By default fakebook uses a latency of 100ms in each route, but that's configurable. If you pass a configuration file to fakebook, use the following format:

################################### General ####################################

## OAuth route latency in MS. 0 to none.
## Defaults to: 100
OAUTH_LATENCY = 100

## Token route latency in MS. 0 to none.
## Defaults to: 100
TOKEN_LATENCY = 100

## User Data route latency in MS. 0 to none.
## Defaults to: 100
USERDATA_LATENCY = 100
