driz Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I'm building a simple PHP Form that will update the status of a twitter account. I have the following code, but it doesn't update my status (the username and password has been removed for this snippet) anymore because it used basic auth and twitter now requires OAuth.I have been following this tutorial here: http://ditio.net/2010/06/07/twitter-php-oauth-update-status/ and I have registered my App and copied both the Library and Tokens over (again these are removed from this snippet).BUT I'm not sure how to get this working with my current code, ie. what needs changing/adding/removing to get the OAuth working with my current code.If anyone could help me get this working that'd be awesome. As I have no idea where to start. Thanks. <?php function postToTwitter($username,$password,$message) { require_once 'TwitterOAuth.php'; define("CONSUMER_KEY", "???"); define("CONSUMER_SECRET", "???"); define("OAUTH_TOKEN", "???"); define("OAUTH_SECRET", "???"); $connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_SECRET); $content = $connection->get('account/verify_credentials'); $connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => date(DATE_RFC822))); // GET the API url via web authentication // add 'status' param to send a message to Twitter $host = "http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.xml?status=".urlencode(stripslashes(urldecode($message))); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $host); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Expect:')); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$username:$password"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); // Go for it!!! $result = curl_exec($ch); // Look at the returned header $resultArray = curl_getinfo($ch); // close curl curl_close($ch); //echo "http code: ".$resultArray['http_code']."<br />"; if($resultArray['http_code'] == "200"){ echo "<br />OK! posted to http://twitter.com/".$username."/<br />"; } else { echo "eek! yegads! error posting to Twitter"; } // debug the result // echo "<pre>"; // print_r($resultArray); // echo "</pre><hr>"; // $sResult = htmlentities($result); // $sResult = str_replace("><","><br /><",$sResult); // echo "<pre>"; // print $sResult; // echo "</pre>"; } if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $textmessage = $_POST['message']; postToTwitter("whiningwall","u0558234",$textmessage); }?><!DOCTYPE html><html lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=1024"> <title></title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="master.css" media="screen" /> <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script> </head> <body> <form id="post" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"> <fieldset> <label for="textArea">What's on your mind?</label> <textarea id="textArea" name="message" maxlength="140"></textarea> <div class="submit"> <span class="charsRemaining"></span> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Share" /> </div> </fieldset> </form> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.maxlength.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $('#textArea').focus(); </script> </body></html> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
