Hi there,
I've been using the Twitter API for a while now using HTTP
authentication to do posts for my two Twitter apps and I'm trying to
get my head around OAuth. I setup a test app successfully following
the instructions here: http://apiwiki.twitter.com/OAuth+Example+-+Ruby
The example given is a get request, which I "get." I took a look at
the OAuth gem documentation and have been trying to do a simple status
update and haven't been having any luck.
Following the format of the tutorial link above, I've tried
constructing a post like this...
@response = UsersController.consumer.request(:post, '/statuses/
update.xml', @access_token, {:status => 'testing a post from my sample
app'}, { 'Content-Type' => 'application/xml' })
Do i need to encode the status? It's currently failing. If someone
could post an example, it would be really helpful.
Thanks,
-A
