title: Facebook API and Python
body: <p>Does anyone know of a good platform agnostic example or library that does Facebook authentication and Graph API access via Python?</p>
  
  <p>The official <a href="https://github.com/facebook/python-sdk" rel="noreferrer">Facebook Python SDK</a> is tied to Google App Engine and <a href="https://github.com/sciyoshi/pyfacebook/" rel="noreferrer">Pyfacebook</a> is deeply woven with Django. </p>
  
  <p>I just want to be able to mess around in terminal and go through the process of authenticating a user and then doing simple requests from the Facebook API.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
