[twitter-dev] Re: Newbie to seek advice on the flow of a twitter app with OAuth
Hey,
I guess this question should have been directed at Abraham. I realized
it was his code example I was making use of.
I edited oAuth.php to make use of the $callback_url that was
originally designated as null, and carried that over in to OAuthToken
and OAuthConsumer constructs.
Within OAuthToken, I modified the string serialization of the token
response to this:
function to_string() {/*{{{*/
return "oauth_token=" . OAuthUtil::urlencode_rfc3986($this->key) .
"&oauth_token_secret=" . OAuthUtil::urlencode_rfc3986($this-
>secret) .
"&oauth_callback=" . OAuthUtil::urlencode_rfc3986($this-
>callback_url);
Not sure if i've taken this too far, but I guess if Abraham could
respond, it would be awesome!
Thanks everyone

Are you using my PHP library? It does not have oauth_callback support yet.

Andrew, I can't seem to get this working and wanted to see if you would be able to shed some light... thx in my main index i created a variable: (i tried with both of these) $callback_url ='&callback_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tweetivism.com%2Fblog'; $callback_url ='http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tweetivism.com%2Fblog'; and within the default case i added $callback_url to the constructor $to = new TwitterOAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret, $callback_url); and im still redirecting to where I have it set in the app backend on twitter... am I on the right track at all? thx On Jul 26, 5:10 am, Andrew Badera wrote: > On Tue, Jul 21, 2009 at 3:08 AM, CG wrote: > > > you can use localhost ? really ? just update the callback to > >http://localhost/xxx? > > Sorry, missed this.

[twitter-dev] Re: Newbie to seek advice on the flow of a twitter app with OAuth
Yes, you can use http://localhost/... for the callback. I used this method when I was integrating OAuth into my application.

Please ignore my question, I already solve it.
It seems like it required a 'real' callback URL to accomplish the
authentication.

[twitter-dev] Re: Newbie to seek advice on the flow of a twitter app with OAuth
Hi Abraham,
Thanks for your reply ! ... I am actually referring to your example
come with PHP library (twitterOAuth) to do my first Twitter App :)
I have read through the code in index.php , and I modified it to
output the token and token_secret on screen. Then I write another php
script , to use the consumer key , consumer secret , access_token and
access_token_secret to create an instance of TwitterOAuth , then call
OAuthRequest("https://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml";, array('status'
=> Test OAuth update. #testoauth', 'POST'), however, it returns "Could
not authenticate you"
Am I have the wrong concept ?
Below is my code
';
/* Consumer Secret from twitter */
$consumer_secret = '';
$token = '';
$secret = ''';
$to = new TwitterOAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret, $token,
$secret);
/* Run request on twitter API as user. */
$content = $to->OAuthRequest('https://twitter.com/statuses/
update.xml', array('status' => 'Test OAuth update. #testoauth'),
'POST');
?>
print_r($content);
Thanks ...
