Windows phone has all this shiny social integration all around. And Sailfish only have a very poor one, but don't worry, Friends integration project is here.

The goal is to have Facebook integration a bit everywhere in Sailfish OS. I started with adding news feed in contacts, and am planning a lot of more goodies (notifications, event feed, and maybe account integration !)

How to enable Facebook integration:
  1. Add a Facebook account and allow contacts to be synced
  2. Install Friends integration package

Then, an attached panel will be available for your Facebook friends inside contacts. You can even open the user inside Friends, or open the news feeds.

Enjoy !

This package messes with system files. It can make part of your phone unfunctional. Try with care.

Get it

Friends integration cannot be pushed on store (because it uses a lot of harbour-unfriendly stuff). So get it on openrepos, or in my OBS.

I'm using github to host code. Transifex link will come soon.

Bugs, issues

If you don't uninstall friends-integration properly, your contacts cards might not show up. If so, you might need to reinstall contacts components.

First, uninstall clearly friends-integration. As root.
Code:
zypper rm friends-integration
If it don't work, try
Code:
touch /opt/friends-integration/ContactCard.qml.old
zypper rm friends-integration
After that, do
Code:
zypper in -f sailfish-components-contacts-qt5
If you find bugs, especially in beta, experimental builds, please reports them in the Forum, with a way to reproduce them. Otherwise, I won't be able to fix them.
