The library is higher level and easier to use than the API, though for limited functionality of the API. It can be used to easily do basic access of Wikipedia pages, which could be useful for many educational, reference and other purposes. This recipe shows the basic use of the wikipedia library, by using it to search for information about oranges.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Ruby recipe 578343 by <a href="/recipes/users/4174931/">Filippo Squillace</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/api/">api</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/facebook/">facebook</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/http/">http</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/ruby/">ruby</a>). </p> <p>I was painfully lokking for a simple function that allow easily make GET or POST requests in Ruby without using complex libraries such as Koala for accessing to the Facebook Graph. At the end I gave up and did it by myself, so the function fb_api, based on net/http, is able to make GET or POST requests (depending if the request is for retrieving information of the graph or is for changing the graph such as post feed etc.). It returns a dict from a JSON data structure.</p> <p>This might be useful for your facebook app ;)</p>

Revision 3. </p> <p>Just in case anyone would need the bindings, here's a very basic implementation. For some reasons, <a href="http://wordze.com" rel="nofollow">wordze.com</a> has very strict API usage limitations, so to use this efficiently, you'll probably need to cache every request-response. </p> <p>Any comments and/or corrections are welcome. :) </p>
