        Installation
        ============
        
        Simple:
        
        .. code-block:: console
        
            $ pip install fbchat
        
        
        Example
        =======
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import fbchat
        
            client = fbchat.Client("YOUR_ID", "YOUR_PASSWORD")
        
        
        Sending a Message
        =================
        
        .. code-block:: python
            
            friends = client.getUsers("FRIEND'S NAME")  # return a list of names
            friend = friends[0]
            sent = client.send(friend.uid, "Your Message")
            if sent:
                print("Message sent successfully!")
            # IMAGES
            client.sendLocalImage(friend.uid,message='<message text>',image='<path/to/image/file>') # send local image
            imgurl = "http://i.imgur.com/LDQ2ITV.jpg"
            client.sendRemoteImage(friend.uid,message='<message text>', image=imgurl) # send image from image url
        
        
        Getting user info from user id
        ==============================
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            friend1 = client.getUsers('<friend name 1>')[0]
            friend2 = client.getUsers('<friend name 2>')[0]
            friend1_info = client.getUserInfo(friend1.uid) # returns dict with details
            both_info = client.getUserInfo(friend1.uid,friend2.uid) # query both together, returns list of dicts
            friend1_name = friend1_info['name'] 
        
        
        Getting last messages sent
        ==========================
        
        .. code-block:: python
            
            last_messages = client.getThreadInfo(friend.uid, last_n=20)
            last_messages.reverse()  # messages come in reversed order
            
            for message in last_messages:
                print(message.body)
        
        
        Example Echobot

        .. code-block:: python
        
            import fbchat
            #subclass fbchat.Client and override required methods
            class EchoBot(fbchat.Client): 
        
                def __init__(self,email, password, debug=True, user_agent=None):            
                    fbchat.Client.__init__(self,email, password, debug, user_agent)
        
                def on_message(self, mid, author_id, author_name, message, metadata):
                    self.markAsDelivered(author_id, mid) #mark delivered
                    self.markAsRead(author_id) #mark read
        
                    print("%s said: %s"%(author_id, message))
        
                    #if you are not the author, echo
                    if str(author_id) != str(self.uid):
                        self.send(author_id,message)
            
            bot = EchoBot("<email>", "<password>")
