Get Reactions from Timeline Post via Facebook Graph API – Swift – iOS

April 13, 2016January 10, 2017 Ashish Kakkad iOS, iOS 10, iTuts, Swift 3, Swift Language Facebook, facebook posts, facebook reactions api, fetch all posts, iOS, iOS 10, iOS 9, iOS10, reactions, reactions api, Swift, Swift 2, Swift 2.2, Swift 3, Swift Language, swiftlang

New version of SDK is 4.16.x(Swift) and Graph API Version is 2.8.

With the Graph API 2.6 Facebook has given support to fetch (read only) the Reactions on Timeline Posts.

Post is updated for iOS 10 and Swift 3

API documentation is available here.

Let’s learn how to get reactions from the post

Install pods

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'FBSwiftLogin' do
  # Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
  use_frameworks!

  # Pods for FBSwiftLogin

    pod 'FacebookCore'
    pod 'FacebookLogin'
end

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project

platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'FBSwiftLogin' do

# Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks

use_frameworks!

# Pods for FBSwiftLogin

pod 'FacebookCore'

pod 'FacebookLogin'

end

Login with Facebook

I have already written a tutorial on Facebook Login.

Get Facebook Posts via Graph API

We can get the Facebook post via graph API : /me/posts for that we have to add user_posts permission with login.

func getFacebookUserPosts() {
    FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: "/me/posts", parameters: nil, httpMethod: "GET").start(completionHandler: { (connection, result, error) in
        if (error == nil){
            print(result)
        }
    })
}

func getFacebookUserPosts() {

FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: "/me/posts", parameters: nil, httpMethod: "GET").start(completionHandler: { (connection, result, error) in

if (error == nil){

print(result)

}

})

}

Get Reactions from one of the Post

We can get the Facebook post reactions via graph API : /{post-id}/reactions. We have to pass parameters like fields and summary as described in getReactions function.

Note : Here I am writing sample for only first post.

func getFacebookUserPosts() {
    var strGraphPath : String = ""
    
    FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: "/me/posts", parameters: nil, httpMethod: "GET").start(completionHandler: { (connection, result, error) in
        if (error == nil){
            print(result)
            let data = (result as! [String : Any])["data"] as! [[String : Any]]
            if(data.count > 0) {
                let strId = data[0]["id"] as! String
                strGraphPath = "/"+strId+"/reactions"
                self.getReactions(strGraphPath)
            }
        }
    })
}

func getReactions(_ strGraphPath:String) {
    FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: strGraphPath, parameters: ["fields":"id, name, type", "summary":"total_count, viewer_reaction"], httpMethod: "GET").start(completionHandler: { (connection, result, error) in
        if (error == nil){
            print(result)
        }
    })
}

func getFacebookUserPosts() {

var strGraphPath : String = ""

FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: "/me/posts", parameters: nil, httpMethod: "GET").start(completionHandler: { (connection, result, error) in

if (error == nil){

print(result)

let data = (result as! [String : Any])["data"] as! [[String : Any]]

if(data.count > 0) {

let strId = data[0]["id"] as! String

strGraphPath = "/"+strId+"/reactions"

self.getReactions(strGraphPath)

}

})

}

func getReactions(_ strGraphPath:String) {

FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: strGraphPath, parameters: ["fields":"id, name, type", "summary":"total_count, viewer_reaction"], httpMethod: "GET").start(completionHandler: { (connection, result, error) in

if (error == nil){

print(result)

}

})

}

Response should be like

Type of reactions : NONE, LIKE, LOVE, WOW, HAHA, SAD, ANGRY

{
    data =     (
        {
            id = ACCOUNT_ID;
            name = "NAME";
            type = HAHA;
        },
        {
            id = ACCOUNT_ID;
            name = "NAME";
            type = LIKE;
        }
    );
    paging =     {
        cursors =         {
            after = REFERENCE_ID;
            before = REFERENCE_ID;
        };
        next = "NEXT_REFERENCE_LINK";
    };
    summary =     {
        "total_count" = 56;
        "viewer_reaction" = NONE;
    };
}

{

data = (

{

id = ACCOUNT_ID;

name = "NAME";

type = HAHA;

{

id = ACCOUNT_ID;

name = "NAME";

type = LIKE;

}

);

paging = {

cursors = {

after = REFERENCE_ID;

before = REFERENCE_ID;

};

next = "NEXT_REFERENCE_LINK";

};

summary = {

"total_count" = 56;

"viewer_reaction" = NONE;

};

}
