Instructions in StackOverflow post here with examples. This post shows you how to get your tokens and more. If you found it useful, please upvote / leave a comment! :)
The aim of this class is simple. You need to:
- Include the class in your PHP code
- Create a twitter app on the twitter developer site
- Enable read/write access for your twitter app
- Grab your access tokens from the twitter developer site
- Choose a twitter API URL to make the request to
- Choose either GET / POST (depending on the request)
- Choose the fields you want to send with the request (example:
array('screen_name' => 'usernameToBlock')
)
You really can't get much simpler than that. Here is an example of how to use the class for a POST request to block a user, and at the bottom is an example of a GET request.
Installation
Normally: If you don't use composer, don't worry - just include TwitterAPIExchange.php in your application.
Via Composer: If you do use composer, here's what you add to your composer.json file to have TwitterAPIExchange.php automatically imported into your vendor's folder:
{
"require": {
"j7mbo/twitter-api-php": "dev-master"
}
}
Of course, you'll then need to run php composer.phar update
.
How To Use
Include the class file
require_once('TwitterAPIExchange.php');
Set access tokens
$settings = array(
'oauth_access_token' => "YOUR_OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN",
'oauth_access_token_secret' => "YOUR_OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET",
'consumer_key' => "YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY",
'consumer_secret' => "YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET"
);
Choose URL and Request Method
$url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/blocks/create.json';
$requestMethod = 'POST';
Choose POST fields
$postfields = array(
'screen_name' => 'usernameToBlock',
'skip_status' => '1'
);
Perform the request!
$twitter = new TwitterAPIExchange($settings);
echo $twitter->buildOauth($url, $requestMethod)
->setPostfields($postfields)
->performRequest();
GET Request Example
Set the GET field BEFORE calling buildOauth(); and everything else is the same:
$url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/ids.json';
$getfield = '?screen_name=J7mbo';
$requestMethod = 'GET';
$twitter = new TwitterAPIExchange($settings);
echo $twitter->setGetfield($getfield)
->buildOauth($url, $requestMethod)
->performRequest();
That is it! Really simple, works great with the 1.1 API. Thanks to @lackovic10 and @rivers on SO!
