I am developing a chrome extension for twitter (yeah another one ;-)).
I have few doubts from twitter’s API documentation at the
implementation. I will use javascript code to clear doubts.
BASE STRING
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open(METHOD,URL, false);
xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization",HEADER);
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xhr.readyState == 4 )
{
//func
}
}
xhr.send(BODY);
}
HEADER: usual header with oauth details (same for all)
FOR UPDATING STATUS
BASE STRING: should have the usual oauth details with URL as given
below and also BODY as give below
METHOD: POST
URL: http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.json
BODY: status=something
Result: INTERNAL SERVER ERROR
FOR GETTING TIMELINE BY COUNT
BASE STRING: should have the usual oauth details with URL as given
below
METHOD: GET
URL: http://api.twitter.com/version/statuses/home_timeline.json?count=200
BODY: count=200
Result: INVALID SIGNATURE
RETWEETING
BASE STRING: should have the usual oauth details with URL as given
below
METHOD: POST
URL: http://api.twitter.com/version/statuses/retweet/:id.json
BODY: null
“id” in the url means id specified in the json of the tweet.
Result: NOT FOUND ERROR
Please clear my mistakes and any changes I need to make.
