[twitter-dev] Switch to OAuth - How to
I'm a web developer, I've made a module that shows up tweets on site. The module uses Twitter basic auth, means user, whom uses my module in his site, have to input his Twitter username and password in the module configuration. But with OAuth, does he have to register the module with Twitter app to get Comsumer Key and Secret instead of username password? How can he use username pw as currently? -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk?hl=en

I strongly recommend against this and I don't think that Twitter would allow it anyway. But, for your information, you would use xAuth for this. But, like I said: it won't be allowed. Just do the OAuth dance like any other application is supposed to do :-) Tom -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk?hl=en

Thanks for the reply, but I want to get tweets via friend timeline. Since Twitter switch to OAuth, I can not do this so far. 2010/9/6 Tom van der Woerdt i...@tvdw.eu On 9/6/10 4:56 AM, Donglt wrote: I'm a web developer, I've made a module that shows up tweets on site.

Since Twitter switch to OAuth, I can not do this so far. If the account is public, you can unauthenticated request the home_timeline. If the account is private, then, unfortunately, you'll have to register your app to get a app secret and token and, at least once, request the authorization for that app in the account. Once you get the authorization token, you can use it indefinitely (or till Twitter revokes it, but they don't have a timeout at this time.) -- Julio Biason julio.bia...@gmail.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/juliobiason -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk?hl=en
