Full Documentation: http://django-la-facebook.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html

Get django-la-facebook into your python path:

pip install django-la-facebook

Add la_facebook to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'la_facebook',
    ...
    )

Add la_facebook to your root urlconf (urls.py):

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    ...,
    url(r"^la_facebook/", include("la_facebook.urls")),
    ...,
)

Add settings just as:

FACEBOOK_ACCESS_SETTINGS = {
        "FACEBOOK_APP_ID": FACEBOOK_APP_ID,
        "FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET": FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET,
        # The following keys are optional
        # "CALLBACK": "la_facebook.callbacks.default.default_facebook_callback",
        # "PROVIDER_SCOPE": ['email','read_stream'],
        # "LOG_LEVEL": "DEBUG",
        # "LOG_FILE": "/tmp/la_facebook.log",
}
