Retrieve comments and replies with Koala gem

maybe this is stupid question, but how to retrieve comments and their replies (last 50) from Facebook profile page? For example: api.get_connections("depechemode","posts") (or feed) give me only comments. Do I really have to create another request for every comment to get its replies? Is there better way to obtain all responses (comments + replies) from posts?

I tried FQL with "googled" examples, but without success...

UPDATE: I can get comments+replies from post with api.get_connections(post_id,"comments", :filter="stream") but is there any other option? It will be nice to get posts+comments+replies with one request...

Solution

  • I'll answer to myself:

    graph.get_connections("askdotcom", "posts", :fields=>"message,id,created_time,comments.fields(comments.fields(from,message),message,from),from")

    Just had to play with Graph API Explorer
