[twitter-dev] Twitter status update with Basic Auth Lua

2009-12-01 Thread Prometheus3k
Hi guys, I'm using a desktop platform with a Lua scripting environment. The app I'm making is standalone and does not run in a browser. It can connect to http resources. I'm trying out a simple test to update a status but web services isn't a strong point of mine. I'm following Basic Auth for now

Your basic auth value should be in a header not the post body. The other X- values I think also go into headers, but I don't provide those really so not sure. I'm not even sure if twitter pays attention to those. Josh On Tue, Dec 1, 2009 at 9:25 AM, Prometheus3k prometheu...@gmail.com wrote: Hi

Correct on the headers... Also note that if you're making a post, you don't want status=... in the query string, you want it added to the body of the request. Are you using a specific Lua HTTP library? ---Mark On Tue, Dec 1, 2009 at 8:45 AM, Josh Roesslein jroessl...@gmail.com wrote: Your
