Facebook for iPhone, background wall post

Question

Hi,

I am implementing the Facebook iOS SDK into my app... and find no problems with that. BUT, what I can't find to figure out is how to send basic wall post to my facebook app wall.

What I want to do is whenever a user searches for something, the app sends a wall-post with the following text "@someUser just searched for someSearchQuery" to my apps wall (not the users wall). Offcource this is something I want the user to be able to switch on / off in the settings page, so the user is aware of it.

How can I do this?

Best regards, Paul Peelen

Use the new Graph API as described here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/api#publishing

Quoting: "For example, you can post a new wall post on Arjun's wall by issuing a POST request to https://graph.facebook.com/arjun/feed"

To use the Graph API from Facebook iOS SDK do something like:

[facebook requestWithGraphPath:@"[your app's id]/feed" andParams:params andMethod:@"POST" andDelegate:self];

where params is a dictionary with following optional keys: message, picture, link, name, caption, description, source
