Get Facebook Posts on Timeline using Koala gem

Question

I am trying to get all the posts on my facebook profile using Koala. I am using the following method -

feed = graph.get_connections("me", "feed")

But this method returns an array of hash whose element is -

{"updated_time"=>"some time", "is_hidden"=>false, "story"=>"someone and 10 others wrote on your timeline.", "from"=>{"id"=>"some id", "name"=>"some name"}, "id"=>"some id", "privacy"=>{"deny"=>"", "value"=>"", "friends"=>"", "description"=>"", "allow"=>""}, "type"=>"status", "created_time"=>"some time", "status_type"=>"wall_post"}

The problem in this case is I am not able to retrieve individual posts on timeline.

There is "story" present in the hash but no "Message". I expected that there would be 11 elements in the array as 11 friends posted on timeline.

Is there any other method from which I can retrieve? Also, this is plain ruby program without any rails integration.

Thanks!

Instead of 'get_connections', do:

graph.get_object("me/feed?fields=message")

to get the messages in your feed.
