This tutorial provides an introduction to the Acre scripting language and API, and shows how to retrieve and display results from the Freebase database using a basic MQL query. In this example the MQL query retrieves a listing of albums by The Police, but by changing the query the functionality of the app can also be changed.
This tutorial expands on the Simple Album Lister tutorial by incorporating user input to search Freebase, as well as returning images associated with topics and providing a click-through to topics in Freebase from the returned results.
This tutorial includes information on how to use Freebase data in a Facebook application.
