[twitter-dev] Re: PHP Libraries for OAuth
I pushed the 2.0 version of the library to Github and it includes quite a few changes. Docs: http://wiki.github.com/jmathai/twitter-async Release Notes: http://wiki.github.com/jmathai/twitter-async/twitter-async-20-release-notes # Added a new (preferred) API You can now use get, post, delete, get_basic, post_basic and delete_basic. Details here # No longer asynchronous by default Most people were using it synchronously and didn’t understand why you had to access a response parameter to ensure the call completed. useAsynchronous(true) should be used if you want to use it that way or hard code the default value in _EpiTwitter.php) # Revamped the exceptions Details on the new exception hierarchy # Added support for versioned URLs # Fixed lots and lots of bugs # Exposed response headers On Nov 2, 2:25 pm, jmathai jmat...@gmail.com wrote: I think it will benefit all users of the library to document the method names for every call.

The new 2.0 version provides an alternative API to the __call method :). http://wiki.github.com/jmathai/twitter-async#usage_and_examples On Nov 1, 3:21 pm, Michael Mokrysz m...@46bit.com wrote: Thanks to both of you, having taken a better look at epitwitter's code I'd have to agree that's it's best to switch.

I much prefer using http://wiki.github.com/jmathai/twitter-async Scott.

Up to now I've been using Abraham Williams' TwitterOAuth library, however since on github it seems there's been no updates for many months I thought I'd better check whether that's because there's no major bugs or because there's better libraries available?

[twitter-dev] Re: PHP Libraries for OAuth
+1 I too started with Abraham's, but as you pointed out, that project is more or less stagnant and Abraham is working on other things. Totally understandable. Jmathai's library is technically very sound, extremely well thought out and continuously being improved. Moreover, jmathai is very helpful and responds to questions/requests etc within hours. Big fan. Plus, you get the advantage of asynchronous calls... On Nov 1, 2009, at 12:37 PM, Scott Wilcox sc...@tig.gr wrote: I much prefer using http://wiki.github.com/jmathai/twitter-async Scott.

[twitter-dev] Re: PHP Libraries for OAuth
Completely agreed with Michael there. I'm not for a minute suggesting Abraham's library is any less in value, I just come to appreciate the nature in which jmathai went about creating the library and it just seemed to be more 'natural' to work with. Not to mention as Michael said - you have a question and you get a response quickly. Scott.
