(JavaScript) Twitter OAuth -- Tweet to Your Own Account
Demonstrates how to send a tweet (status update) to your own Twitter account using pre-known credentials, which includes:
- Consumer Key
- Consumer Secret
- Access Token
- Token Secret
var success = false;
// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
var http = new CkHttp();
http.OAuth1 = true;
http.OAuthVerifier = "";
http.OAuthConsumerKey = "my-consumer-key";
http.OAuthConsumerSecret = "my-consumer-secret";
http.OAuthToken = "my-access-token";
http.OAuthTokenSecret = "my-token-secret";
// Send the same status update as shown in this example:
// https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/post/statuses/update
// IMPORTANT: Make sure this app has read/write access.
// Otherwise it cannot post an update (i.e. tweet) to the Twitter account.
var req = new CkHttpRequest();
req.AddParam("status","Maybe he'll finally find his keys. #peterfalk");
req.HttpVerb = "POST";
req.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
var resp = new CkHttpResponse();
success = http.HttpReq("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json",req,resp);
if (success == false) {
console.log(http.LastErrorText);
return;
}
if (resp.StatusCode == 200) {
// Display the JSON response.
console.log(resp.BodyStr);
}
else {
console.log(http.LastErrorText);
}
