How to get (and use) extended permissions in Facebook with Python/Django

Question

I'm trying to write a simple app that lets a user grant my code permission to write to her page's Facebook stream. As I understand it, it should be as easy as:

1. Have the user click on a button that launches a popup containing the a page in my Facebook app.
2. In that page, they click on something that grants stream_publish to my app and assigns that permission to their page.
3. Window closes, I now have all the info I need to run a script in cron to push stuff to that page's stream.

I've been reading the wiki for days. Notes on pyfacebook are at least a year out of date, and people have pointed me to the socialauth app for Django which appears to be equally out of date and focused on targeting users as opposed to their pages. I can't even do #1 up there, let along #2 and 3.

If someone could show me how to use Django/Python to request/receive permission to write to a Facebook stream, that would be a great start.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

After a lot of tinkering, I appear to have solved all of my problems in Facebookland:

1. Turns out that having a user click on a button to grant permissions is as easy as Caio Romão said it was. For my part though, I found that directing them to the Facebook Desktop App link was way easier and more dependable.
2. Using this link method, Facebook allows you to specify enable_profile_selector=1 which will make sure that a list of pages is generated from which the user can select which pages (if any) will grant these permissions.
3. For this one though, Facebook is totally broken. While in #2 they allow the user to select a page to grant permissions, they don't pass this information onto the application either by way of a POST or in the headers. It's just not there. Instead, you have to do an ugly trick with FQL and some additional questions to the user to make it work.

Anyway, I detailed it all on my blog if anyone is interested. Thanks for your help!
