PHP Twitter API -with OAuth

If you have been looking for a simple twitter library in PHP that will take care of the dirty OAuth handshakes for you, then my friend, you have come to the right place!

Features:

• Normalize your URL and prepare it to be signed
• Create your HMAC-SHA1 signature needed for OAuth
• Acquire request and access tokens, and authorize your users with Twitter
• Allow your users to update their statuses without leaving your site!

all by using three simple function calls!

UPDATE : You can now download my Twitter API class here

<?php  require_once('Tweeter.php');  

//INTIALIZE YOUR CONFIG AND CREATE YOUR CLASS  

$config['key'] =  'ConsumerKey';  //Consumer key provided by twitter  

$config['secret'] = 'ConsumerSecret&'; //Consumer secret provided by Twitter - The ampersand at the end is intentional  

$twitter = new Tweeter($config);  

$twitter->get_request_token($twitter->request_token_url); //Request your "request_token"

?>

Remember we mentioned our call-back function? (refer back to your class notes for Tweeter.php)

Below is the file I chose for my call-back re-direct:

<?php  

session_start(); 

require_once('Tweeter.php');  

$oauth_verifier = $_GET['oauth_verifier'];  

$oauth_token = $_GET['oauth_token'];  

$twitt = unserialize($_SESSION['twitt']);  

$twitt->verifier = $oauth_verifier;

$twitt->get_access_token(); //Use the token and verifier to acquire the access token - Almost there!

print "Done";

$twitt = unserialize($_SESSION['twitt']);

$twitt->tweet_msg('last tweet of the day.');

?>

That’s all folks. Tell me how much you love it. Tell me how much you hate it. Questions? Answers!
