(Visual FoxPro) Facebook Download all Photos to Local Files

Demonstrates how to download all of one's Facebook photos to a local filesystem directory. This sample code keeps a local cache to avoid re-downloading the same photos twice. The program can be run again after a time, and it will download only photos that haven't yet been downloaded.

* This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* This example will use a local disk cache to avoid re-fetching the same
* photo id after it's been fetched once.
loFbCache = CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Cache')
* The cache will use 1 level of 256 sub-directories.
loFbCache.Level = 1
* Use a directory path that makes sense on your operating system..
loFbCache.AddRoot("C:/fbCache")

* This example assumes a previously obtained an access token
loOauth2 = CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.OAuth2')
loOauth2.AccessToken = "FACEBOOK-ACCESS-TOKEN"

loRest = CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Rest')

* Connect to Facebook.

    RELEASE loOauth2
    RELEASE loRest
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Provide the authentication credentials (i.e. the access key)
loRest.SetAuthOAuth2(loOauth2)

* There are two choices:  
* We can choose to download the photos the person is tagged in or has uploaded
* by setting type to "tagged" or "uploaded".
loRest.AddQueryParam("type","uploaded")

* To download all photos, we begin with an outer loop that iterates over
* the list of photo nodes in pages.  Each page returned contains a list of 
* photo node ids.  Each photo node id must be retrieved to get the download URL(s)
* of the actual image.

* I don't know the max limit for the number of records that can be downloaded at once.
loRest.AddQueryParam("limit","100")

* Get the 1st page of photos ids.
* See https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/user/photos/ for more information.
