Parses a Facebook signed request or oauth cookie and stores it in the RACK environment. In order to parse an fbsr_APP_ID cookie you'll need to pass the :app_id => X option to the middleware. This option can be a lambda, in case you have the app ID stored in such a way that it's not available at rackup parsing time.

For example, if you are using rails_config, you might configure SignedRequest like so:

use Rack::Initforthe::Facebook::SignedRequest, app_id: -> { Settings.facebook.app_id }

Note: Currently the signature is not validated.

Corrects Facebook POST to GET for signed requests.

Redirects users to the specified like gate URL if they haven't liked the page.

Redirects users to a path passed in via Facebook's app_data parameter. Useful for allowing users to Facebook share a link to content which doesn't live on the landing page of a tab application.

SignedRequest should always come first in the chain, all the other middleware depends on the environment changes it makes.
