1. your users do not need to have a developer account. they just sign in via your app and you get their access token as long as they are a fb user. 2. i have over 10 fb apps and fb did not have to authorize any of them to be made public so i am not sure how you got that info. you just click a button to make the app public. can you clarify?

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/review/w... lists only "public_profile, user_friends and email" as scopes available without a review, accessing posts seems to require a different one.

do you want users to pipe news from public fb pages like cnn and nytimes? or feeds from private individuals/friends?

that permission only applies to the latter.

"Shortly" we had that topic here already: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4441913 But most of the stuff is not alive anymore...

But there are some interesting new ones:

https://github.com/cantino/huginn

https://trigger-happy.eu/infos

not sure if this is alive: https://sourceforge.net/projects/semanticwebpipe

Do you know some other (open source) event and agent system tools? (there are tons of commercial hosted IFTTT clones, they are not interesting...)

I needed a diagram to showcase my question. This isn't my UI. However, I used https://jsplumbtoolkit.com to create my own UI.

What program did you use to create the diagram?

Sorry, you are taking me too literally there. This is just a screenshot.

Node-RED seems similar and looks like it has a nicer interface (I've not tried it though).

I recently tried to use this kind of system to pipe news from facebook pages into an RSS feed. Impossible. Facebook hand-picks which developers get API access, and only allows ultra-restricted usage, so for example there's no way they would allow API access for a generic Beehive user, even just for reading public posts. Want to scrape data from the HTML? They aggressively detect anything that may or may not be automa…

Give our service at https://feedity.com a try for Facebook pages (or any other public webpage) into feeds. It's stable and scalable.

So the imgur image you posted is just a random flow chart you found online? Is that correct?

Quite interesting that this just been posted. I have to produce an events application with a UI similar to this: http://i.imgur.com/e0R1Kp5.png The UI is already done, so that's not the reason for the post. My question is, on the backend, is there a pattern I can use to easily execute the steps? I know there is a combination of logic, cron, a MQ and a db to hold the flow. But I am unsure on how best to approach the d…

would love to use it. the only people i know who has something similar are - treeline.io which is backed by sailsjs. - aws step functions. Used to coordinate lambda functions. check https://states-language.net/spec.html

> aws step functions...

By the way, AWS step functions allow the creation of state machines just like @rashkov mentioned in the adjacent comment. If you don't mind being locked in to AWS, using step machines with lambda functions would be a great way to do this.

When they said

>I have to produce an events application with a UI similar to this: http://i.imgur.com/e0R1Kp5.png

I read that as "I have to produce an events application with a UI similar to OP, here's what mine looks like". Probably this is what confused you as well.

Google tells me it's a screenshot of a marketing tool: https://www.getresponse.com/features/marketing-automation.ht...
