Here's a simple example that does this using the HTTParty gem:
In your controller to post the tweet:
twitter = Twitter.new(username, password)
twitter.post(message)
And here is the Twitter class:
require 'httparty'
class Twitter
include HTTParty
base_uri 'twitter.com'
def initialize(u=nil, p=nil)
@auth = {:username => u, :password => p} unless u.nil? || p.nil?
end
def post(text)
self.class.basic_auth @auth[:username], @auth[:password]
self.class.post('/statuses/update.json', :query => {:status =>
text})
end
end
