Generate automatic access token with Curl

Automatic Generate Facebook access token you just need the client app id, secret key and short time access token to generating long time access token.

Here is the code :

$ch1 = curl_init();                   //this part we set up curl 
curl_setopt($ch1, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id='.$wkapiid.'&client_secret='.$wkappsecret.'&grant_type=fb_exchange_token&fb_exchange_token='.$accesstoken.'');

curl_setopt($ch1, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch1, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 15);
curl_setopt($ch1, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
curl_setopt($ch1, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
$longaccesstoken = curl_exec($ch1);
curl_close($ch1);
header('Content-type: application/xml');  //specify as xml to not display as one long string

$data=json_decode($longaccesstoken);

This is the full code which is used to generate access token for each time just before 2 month.

jimport( 'joomla.filesystem.file' );
jimport( 'joomla.filesystem.stream' );

function getName($file) {
        $slash = strrpos($file, DS);
        if ($slash !== false) {
                return substr($file, $slash + 1);
        } else {
                return $file;
        }
}

$wkdates = getdate();
