Rewrite from scratch?

[hoangvu12]

Is there any chance to rewrite this API from scratch? I mean Facebook have now updated a lot, and I think this API is unstable. It cause more issues. Let me know what you think.

Facebook is such a horrid closed system prone to random A-B backend systems for users to work with it's just not a welcoming prospect for any coder with spare time. I guess you (like myself) just want to accommodate people unwilling to migrate to another system such as slack, telegram, discord etc but long gone are the days of facebook actually being useful and fun.

I recommend you use makiprogrammer/ts-messenger-api.
It is loosely based on Schmavery's repo, but written in typescript and using async/await and events in place of callbacks. Currently, it's maintained.

This looks promising, I'll give it a try later.

@hong4rc I'd be interested in helping you rewrite this, but where does one even start?

https://github.com/hong4rc/node-facebook work for old version Facebook.

But I don't have much time to maintain it.

I going to make it work this weekend.

Feel free to help another lib(ex: https://github.com/makiprogrammer/ts-messenger-api like @hoangvu12 said)
