[Bringing this old stickied thread back up for an announcement... apologies for semi-broken threading.]
With basic auth on the way out at Twitter, I've wanted a way to make requests from the command line just as I used to with curl. Rather than implementing an HTTP client in Ruby/Python/whatever, I decided to do this as a shell script wrapping curl: http://github.com/decklin/curlicue It's really just curl under the hood, so you have access to all your favorite command-line options. It should work with any OAuth 1.0a service, not just Twitter. There is of course an initial setup step that requires your consumer key and secret, but if you save your credentials in the correct location after that, you can pretty much just replace "curl" with "curlicue" in commands and forget about it. Please direct any bugs/issues/questions to Github. Thanks! (I wrote this a month or so ago, but was holding off on posting here because I was hoping for the "open source" key exchange process to move forward. Now that that is officially not going to be ready in time[1], I figured I might as well get this out there. For now, you will have to register your own app before you can use it, and make requests as that app.) [1] http://xrl.us/bhva55 Abraham Williams wrote: > Lets collect an awesome list of tools and applications we use to help > develop with the Twitter API.
