Appcelerator Titanium Facebook module share dialog not showing

Question

I am trying the example code for a share dialog using the facebook module: The vars for link, name, description, caption and picture has all been set to appropriate strings beforehand.

if(Alloy.Globals.Facebook.getCanPresentShareDialog()) {
        Alloy.Globals.Facebook.presentShareDialog({
            link: link,
            name: name,
            description: description,
            caption: caption,
            picture: picture
        });
    } 
    else {
        Alloy.Globals.Facebook.presentWebShareDialog({
            link: link,
            name: name,
            description: description,
            caption: caption,
            picture: picture
        });
    }

When this code is executed nothing happens.

I also added a share listener to see if any events are sent, but it is silent...

var fbShareListener = function(e){
if (e.success) {
    alert(L("FB_SHARE_SUCCESS"));
    Ti.API.info('Share request succeeded.');
} 
else {
    alert(L("FB_SHARE_FAIL"));
    Ti.API.info('Failed to share.');
}
};
Alloy.Globals.Facebook.addEventListener('shareCompleted',fbShareListener);

The Facebook module seems to work otherwise, we are using it to login and linking external accounts to Arrowdb.

UPDATE: It seems that it will give false for getCanPresentShareDialog() so it will try to run the presentWebShareDialog(). But when i look in the API docs for the facebook module this particular method documentation says: "This method has been REMOVED since 5.0.0".

The getCanPresentShareDialog also states "This method has been REMOVED since 5.0.0" in the documentation.

Anyone have any clue what to do instead?

Answer 1

Now they changed the docs so that it is simply to call:

presentShareDialog()

And it will handle everything on its own.
