// This is a Go library fully supports Facebook Graph API (both 1.0 and 2.0) with
// file upload, batch request, FQL and multi-FQL. It can be used in Google App Engine.
//
// Library design is highly influenced by facebook official PHP/JS SDK.
// If you have experience with PHP/JS SDK, you may feel quite familiar with it.
//
// Go to project home page to see samples. Link: https://github.com/huandu/facebook
//
// This library doesn't implement any deprecated old RESTful API. And it won't.

// Makes a facebook graph api call.
//
// Method can be GET, POST, DELETE or PUT.
//
// Params represents query strings in this call.
// Keys and values in params will be encoded for URL automatically. So there is
// no need to encode keys or values in params manually. Params can be nil.
//
// If you want to get
//     https://graph.facebook.com/huandu?fields=name,username
// Api should be called as following
//     Api("/huandu", GET, Params{"fields": "name,username"})
// or in a simplified way
//     Get("/huandu", Params{"fields": "name,username"})
//
// Api is a wrapper of Session.Api(). It's designed for graph api that doesn't require
// app id, app secret and access token. It can be called in multiple goroutines.
//
// If app id, app secret or access token is required in graph api, caller should
// create a new facebook session through App instance instead.
