posting images to event/album using graph api about facebook-node-sdk HOT 4 CLOSED

This is a known issue.

Currently file uploading is not supported at all.

I have already implemented file uploads in facebook-csharp-sdk (https://github.com/facebook-csharp-sdk/facebook-csharp-sdk) so it isn't much of a problem. (It even supports uploading in files in batch requests, progress and cancellation, something that we would like to get in here too).

Feel free to send us a PR. :)

Speedy replies are awesome! Thanks for the info, so I don't go crazy trying to make it work.

Unfortunately, i'm not familiar with C# so it would take a while to translate the code into JS.

I have concluded that request.js + node's fs do have the capabilities to read an image, format into multipart content type, and post. I will try working with this and see if there's a good way to implement this into this library.

also, found a library from this post (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13797670/nodejs-post-request-multipart-form-data?rq=1) called Restler. might look into using this as an alternative to the request.js library (and relevant dependency node-form-data)

thanks again.
