 ## Configuration ##
 
 
Available options in app.yml  :

    all:
      melody:
        create_user: false            # create a new user if not logged when you connect to a service
        redirect_register: false      # you can redirect to a register form or anything else by specify
                                      # a valid route like "@user_register" 
        name:
          key:  my_service_key
          secret: my_secret_key
          callback: @mymodule_index   # or absolute url
          
          #needed for google or facebook
          api: [contacts, ...]        # only for google - easy way to set scopes
          scope: [permission_1, ...]  # for google and facebook to set permissions - for google prefere api parameter
          
          #optional
          user:                       # to create an user
            field_1:
              call: xx
              call_parameters: [x, x, x]
              path: xx.xy.zz
              prefix: xx_
              suffix: _xx
              key: false
            ...
            
          provider: provider          #like google, facebook -optional if 'name' config key is the name of the provider
          request_token_url: url      # override the url - for OAuth 1 implementation only
          request_auth_url: url
          access_token_url: url
          namespaces:                 # namespaces are used to make some api calls - see namespace Section
            ns1: http://my.name.space
            ...
          aliases:                    # Alias is an easy way to simplify api calls
            me: my/alias   
            ...     
          auth_parameters:
            param1: value
          call_parameters:
            param1: value
          access_parameters:
            param1: value
          output_format: json
          create_user: true      
          redirect_register: false
          
          #optional only for OAuth 1
          request_parameters:
            param1: value
          request_token_url: url
          
          
          
          
In an action:

    $this->getUser()->connect('name');
    
    
This action redirects to the callback specified in the app.yml



In an other action when you have the autorization:

    $this->getUser()->getMelody('name')->getMe();  #see section Api for more informations
  
  
## Example ##


We try a sample with facebook, Register an application (see section Register application to have url to register apps).
Then put the config in app.yml:

    all:
      melody:
        create_user: true               # to create a user for all melodies 
        facebook:
          key: my_api_key
          secret: application_secret
          callback: @mymodule_facebook
          scope: [email]                #optionnal - http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/permissions
                                        # needed to create an user based on his email_address
          user:
            username:                   # the name of a field of sfGuardUser
              call: me                  # api call
              path: id                  # path could be user.object.email for example to retrieve the right inforamtion
              prefix: Facebook_
            first_name:
              call: me
              path: first_name
            last_name: 
              call: me
              path: last_name
            email_address:               
              call: me                  
              path: email               
              key: true                 # it's a key to retrieve user from other services based on this information
                                        # if no field is a key all are keys by default.        
          
        facebook_plus:                  # you can manage more than one config for a service
          provider: facebook            # to manage permissions for example            
          ...
        google:
          ...
        skyrock:
          ...  


For example we put a link:

    <?php echo link_to('Connect to facebook', '@mymodule_connect') ?>
    

In the action.class.php :

    public function executeConnect(sfWebRequest $request)
    {
      $this->getUser()->connect('facebook');
    }
    
    public function executeFacebook(sfWebRequest $request)
    {
      $this->me = $this->getUser()->getMelody('facebook')->getMe();
    }
    
    
## User ##

The user creation is a security point because for example if you create user based on email addresses. If a user create 
an account by a classic way and if the email specified is not validated he can retrieve rights on the user which have the email.

So you have to specified the user creation by put some informations in the config file (app.yml).

The informations under the user key in config allow to create a user with theses informations. The keys (key:true) allow to retrieve 
existing user to make links between services or to signin a user according his created account.

### How it's works : ###

If an user is authenticated and request acces to a service. The rights are attached to him. 

There is an event (melody.filter_user) to filter an user if auticanted. This event has params melody and conflict. 
melody is the current melody and conflict represents if the user match the key rules (app.yml). So in this filter you can change the user
or do anything you want in this situation.
 

If the user is not authenticated, it try to retrieve the user by the token then it try to retrieve the user by the keys(config). 
And then create the user if needeed.

Before saving the user, if you specify redirect_register with a valid routing rule, you can redirect the workflow to your action.

In this case, you can retrieve the user created but not saved :

  * unserialize($this->getUser()->getAttribute('melody_user'))
  
And the melody :

  * unserialize($this->getUser()->getAttribute('melody'))

    
    
## Api ##

When you call:
  
    $this->getUser()->getMelody('facebook')->getMe();
    
In fact it's use the default namespace of facebook : https://graph.facebook.com

It calls the method sfOAuth->get($action, $aliases, $params, $method = 'GET')

getMe means get('me')

getMeFriends -> get('me/friends')


an alias is a way to have simpliest call for example :

    $fb_melody->getFriends(array('friends' => 'me/friends'));
    
you can put your own aliases in the app.yml to have simplier calls.

## Apis ##

To make api calls, you have to know api for each service provider :

  * Google : http://code.google.com/intl/fr/apis/gdata/docs/directory.html
  * Facebook: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/
  * Yahoo! : http://developer.yahoo.com/everything.html#apis
