Sign in, then pick up your authentication token from the access_token param in the url.
Get your facebook user id with this online tool by providing your profile url.

Tinderbot also provides a script to get your facebook credentials.

facebook_email = 'your facebook email'
facebook_password = 'your facebook password'

facebook_authentication_token, facebook_user_id = Tinderbot::Facebook.get_credentials facebook_email, facebook_password

Usage

Authenticating

Once you get your credentials, you can sign in to Tinder.

facebook_authentication_token = 'your facebook authentication token'
facebook_user_id = 'your facebook user id'

tinder_client = Tinderbot::Client.new
tinder_authentication_token = tinder_client.get_authentication_token facebook_authentication_token, facebook_user_id
tinder_client.sign_in tinder_authentication_token
