I want to share post from graph api in python 

import requests
import urllib


host = "https://graph.facebook.com"
path = "/oauth/access_token"
params = urllib.urlencode({"client_id":"XXXXXXX","client_secret": 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX','grant_type': 'client_credentials'})

url = "{host}{path}?{params}".format(host=host, path=path, params=params)

r = requests.get(url)
print "r",r


payload = {'grant_type': 'client_credentials', 'client_id': 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX', 'client_secret': 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'}
file = requests.post('https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?', params = payload)    
result = file.text.split("=")[1]
print "result",result


param = {'client_id':'XXXXXXXXXXXX', 'access_token':result}
file_one = requests.post('https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token_info?', params = param)
print "access token info file",file_one
print "access token info file.text",file_one.text


host = "https://graph.facebook.com"
path = "/me/feed"
params = urllib.urlencode({"message":"Hello, World.","access_token": file.text.split("=")[1]})
url = "{host}{path}?{params}".format(host=host, path=path, params=params)
