Simplest PHP example for retrieving user timeline with Twitter API version 1 1

Question

Because of the Twitter API 1 0 retirement as of June 11th 2013  the script below does not work anymore      Create curl resource   ch   curl init        Set url  curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT URL   http   twitter com statuses user timeline myscreenname json count 10        Return the transfer as a string  curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER  1        output contains the output string   output   curl exec  ch       Close curl resource to free up system resources  curl close  ch    if   output          tweets   json decode  output true        foreach   tweets as  tweet                print r  tweet             How can I get the user timeline  recent statuses  with the least code possible   I found this  https   dev twitter com docs api 1 1 get statuses user timeline but I get the following error      errors     message   Could not authenticate you   code  32       There are a lot of classes out there but after trying several none of them seem to work because of these updates at Twitter  plus some of them are pretty advanced classes with a lot of functionality that I don t really need    What is the simplest shortest way to get the recent user statuses with PHP

First of all I wanted to thank jimbo and (his post / twitter-api-php simple library).

If you are going to use the GET search/tweets API with "twitter-api-php" PHP library (TwitterAPIExchange.php):

First, you have to just comment "Perform a POST request and echo the response " code area.

Just use "Perform a GET request and echo the response" code and echo the response and change these two lines:

$url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/ids.json';
$getfield = '?screen_name=J7mbo';

to

$url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json';
$getfield = '?q=J7mbo';

(Change screen_name to q, that's it :)

If it is useful for anyone    In my blog I ve implement the following PHP code in order to retrieve the last tweets  extract their most relevant data  and then saved them into a MySQL database  It works because I got it in my blog   The  tweets  table where store them   CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS  tweets       tweet id  int 11  NOT NULL auto increment     id tweet  bigint 20  NOT NULL     text tweet  char 144  NOT NULL     datetime tweet  datetime NOT NULL     dayofweek tweet  char 3  NOT NULL     GMT tweet  char 5  NOT NULL     shorturl tweet  char 23  NOT NULL    PRIMARY KEY    tweet id     ENGINE MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET utf8 AUTO INCREMENT 83     get tweets php    lt  php function buildBaseString  baseURI   method   params         r  array        ksort  params       foreach  params as  key  gt  value            r      key   rawurlencode  value             return  method   amp   rawurlencode  baseURI    amp   rawurlencode implode   amp     r       function buildAuthorizationHeader  oauth         r   Authorization  OAuth         values  array        foreach  oauth as  key  gt  value             values      key     rawurlencode  value                   r   implode        values       return  r     function returnTweets  last id         oauth access token            2687912757-vbyfJA483SEyj2HJ2K346aVMxtOIgVbsY4Edrsw        oauth access token secret     nIruzmR0bXqC3has4fTf8KAq4pgOceiuKqjklhroENU4W        api key                       ieDSTFH8QHHPafg7H0whQB9GaY        api secret                    mgm8wVS9YP93IJmTQtsmR8ZJADDNdlTca5kCizMkC7O7gFDS1j        twitter timeline              user timeline       mentions timeline user timeline home timeline retweets of me        create request      request  array           screen name          gt   runs ES            count                gt   3            exclude replies      gt   true                 if   is null  last id       Add to the request if it exits a last id          request  since id     max id             oauth   array           oauth consumer key           gt   api key           oauth nonce                  gt  time             oauth signature method       gt   HMAC-SHA1            oauth token                  gt   oauth access token           oauth timestamp              gt  time             oauth version                gt   1 0                   merge request and oauth to one array      oauth  array merge  oauth   request         do some magic      base info                  buildBaseString  https   api twitter com 1 1 statuses  twitter timeline json    GET    oauth        composite key              rawurlencode  api secret    amp   rawurlencode  oauth access token secret        oauth signature            base64 encode hash hmac  sha1    base info   composite key  true         oauth  oauth signature      oauth signature        make request      header  array buildAuthorizationHeader  oauth    Expect          options  array CURLOPT HTTPHEADER   gt   header                      CURLOPT HEADER   gt  false                      CURLOPT URL   gt   https   api twitter com 1 1 statuses  twitter timeline json    http build query  request                       CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER   gt  true                      CURLOPT SSL VERIFYPEER   gt  false        feed  curl init        curl setopt array  feed   options        json  curl exec  feed       curl close  feed       return  json     function parse tweettext  tweet text         text  substr  tweet text  0  -23        short url  substr  tweet text  -23  23       return array   text   gt  text   short url   gt   short url      function parse tweetdatetime  tweetdatetime          Thu Aug 21 21 57 26  0000 2014 Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat      months  array  Jan   gt  01    Feb   gt  02    Mar   gt  03    Apr   gt  04    May   gt  05    Jun   gt  06                         Jul   gt  07    Aug   gt  08    Sep   gt  09    Oct   gt  10    Nov   gt  11    Dec   gt  12         GMT  substr  tweetdatetime  -10  5        year  substr  tweetdatetime  -4  4        month str  substr  tweetdatetime  4  3        month   months  month str        day  substr  tweetdatetime  8  2         dayofweek  substr  tweetdatetime  0  3        time  substr  tweetdatetime  11  8        date   year  -

This question helped me a lot but didn t get me all the way in understanding what needs to happen  This blog post did an amazing job of walking me through it   Here are the important bits all in one place    As pointed out above  you MUST sign your 1 1 API requests  If you are doing something like getting public statuses  you ll want an application key rather than a user key  The full link to the page you want is  https   dev twitter com apps You must hash ALL the parameters  both the oauth ones AND the get parameters  or POST parameters  together  You must SORT the parameters before reducing them to the url encoded form that gets hashed  You must encode some things multiple times - for example  you create a query string from the parameters  url-encoded values  and then you url encode THAT and concatenate with the method type and the url    I sympathize with all the headaches  so here s some code to wrap it all up    token    YOUR TOKEN    token secret    TOKEN SECRET    consumer key    YOUR KEY    consumer secret    KEY SECRET     host    api twitter com    method    GET    path     1 1 statuses user timeline json      api call path   query   array     query parameters      screen name    gt   twitterapi        count    gt   2       oauth   array       oauth consumer key    gt   consumer key       oauth token    gt   token       oauth nonce    gt   string mt rand       a stronger nonce is recommended      oauth timestamp    gt  time         oauth signature method    gt   HMAC-SHA1        oauth version    gt   1 0       oauth   array map  rawurlencode    oauth      must be encoded before sorting  query   array map  rawurlencode    query     arr   array merge  oauth   query      combine the values THEN sort  asort  arr      secondary sort  value  ksort  arr      primary sort  key      http build query automatically encodes  but our parameters    are already encoded  and must be by this point  so we undo    the encoding step  querystring   urldecode http build query  arr        amp        url    https    host path       mash everything together for the text to hash  base string    method   amp   rawurlencode  url    amp   rawurlencode  querystring       same with the key  key   rawurlencode  consumer secret    amp   rawurlencode  token secret       generate the hash  signature   rawurlencode base64 encode hash hmac  sha1    base string   key  true         this time we re using a normal GET query  and we re only encoding the query params     without the oauth params   url        http build query  query     oauth  oauth signature      signature     don t want to abandon all that work  ksort  oauth      probably not necessary  but twitter s demo does it     also not necessary  but twitter s demo does this too function add quotes  str    return      str         oauth   array map  add quotes    oauth       this is the full value of the Authorization line  auth    OAuth     urldecode http build query  oauth                  if you re doing post  you need to skip the GET building above    and instead supply query parameters to CURLOPT POSTFIELDS  options   array  CURLOPT HTTPHEADER   gt  array  Authorization   auth                        CURLOPT POSTFIELDS   gt   postfields                    CURLOPT HEADER   gt  false                    CURLOPT URL   gt   url                    CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER   gt  true                    CURLOPT SSL VERIFYPEER   gt  false       do our business  feed   curl init    curl setopt array  feed   options    json   curl exec  feed   curl close  feed     twitter data   json decode  json

You ll need a to create an  app  on Twitter  and you need a Twitter account to do this    Then  you need to use OAuth to make an authorized request to Twitter   You can use the GET statuses user timeline resource to get a list of recent tweets

If you have the OAuth PHP library installed  you don t have to worry about forming the request yourself    oauth   new OAuth  consumer key   consumer secret  OAUTH SIG METHOD HMACSHA1  OAUTH AUTH TYPE URI    oauth- gt setToken  access token   access secret     oauth- gt fetch  https   api twitter com 1 1 statuses user timeline json     twitter data   json decode  oauth- gt getLastResponse      print r  twitter data     For more information  check out The docs or their example  You can use pecl install oauth to get the library

Here s a brief one for getting a specified number of tweets from your timeline  It basically does the same thing as the other examples  only with less code   Just fill in the keys and adjust  count to your liking    url    https   api twitter com 1 1 statuses user timeline json    count    10     oauth   array  count    gt   count                  oauth consumer key    gt    CONSUMER KEY                    oauth nonce    gt  md5 mt rand                     oauth signature method    gt   HMAC-SHA1                   oauth timestamp    gt  time                    oauth token    gt    ACCESS TOKEN                    oauth version    gt   1 0      oauth  oauth signature     base64 encode hash hmac  sha1    GET amp     rawurlencode  url      amp     rawurlencode implode   amp    array map function   v   k    return  k          v      oauth  array keys  oauth        CONSUMER SECRET  amp  ACCESS TOKEN SECRET    true      twitterData   json decode file get contents  url     count      count  false  stream context create array  http    gt  array  method    gt   GET                                                                                                                               header    gt   Authorization  OAuth                                                                                                                                             implode       array map function   v   k    return  k          rawurlencode  v             oauth  array keys  oauth            This one uses anonymous functions and file get contents instead of the cURL library  Note the use of an MD5 hashed nonce  Everyone seems to be going along with the time   nonce  however  most examples on the web concerning OAuth use some kind of encrypted string  like this one  http   www sitepoint com understanding-oauth-1    This makes more sense to me too   Further note  you need PHP 5 3  for the anonymous functions  in case your server computer is in some cold war cave and you can t upgrade it

Like stated in other answers  create a Twitter app to get the token  key and secret  Using the code bellow  you can modify request parameters from one spot and avoid typos and similar errors  change  request array in returnTweet   function    function buildBaseString  baseURI   method   params         r   array        ksort  params       foreach  params as  key  gt  value            r       key     rawurlencode  value             return  method   amp     rawurlencode  baseURI      amp     rawurlencode implode   amp     r       function buildAuthorizationHeader  oauth         r    Authorization  OAuth         values   array        foreach  oauth as  key  gt  value           values       key       rawurlencode  value               r    implode        values       return  r     function returnTweet         oauth access token            x        oauth access token secret     x        consumer key                  x        consumer secret               x         twitter timeline              user timeline        mentions timeline   user timeline   home timeline   retweets of me          create request          request   array               screen name          gt   budidino                count                gt   3                   oauth   array           oauth consumer key           gt   consumer key           oauth nonce                  gt  time             oauth signature method       gt   HMAC-SHA1            oauth token                  gt   oauth access token           oauth timestamp              gt  time             oauth version                gt   1 0                  merge request and oauth to one array          oauth   array merge  oauth   request            do some magic          base info                buildBaseString  https   api twitter com 1 1 statuses  twitter timeline json    GET    oauth            composite key            rawurlencode  consumer secret      amp     rawurlencode  oauth access token secret            oauth signature              base64 encode hash hmac  sha1    base info   composite key  true             oauth  oauth signature        oauth signature           make request          header   array buildAuthorizationHeader  oauth    Expect              options   array  CURLOPT HTTPHEADER   gt   header                            CURLOPT HEADER   gt  false                            CURLOPT URL   gt   https   api twitter com 1 1 statuses  twitter timeline json    http build query  request                             CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER   gt  true                            CURLOPT SSL VERIFYPEER   gt  false             feed   curl init            curl setopt array  feed   options            json   curl exec  feed           curl close  feed        return json decode  json  true       and then just call returnTweet

Thank you Kris   It worked for me without using parameters to the query  whenever I used more than one parameter it showed me the error  32 Could not authenticate you   The problem for me  was in the ampersand encoding  So in your code where it s the following line   url        http build query  query     I added the following line below    url str replace   amp amp     amp    url     And it worked using two or more parameters like screen name and count   The whole code looks like this    token    YOUR TOKEN    token secret    TOKEN SECRET    consumer key    YOUR KEY    consumer secret    KEY SECRET     host    api twitter com    method    GET    path     1 1 statuses user timeline json      api call path   query   array     query parameters      screen name    gt   twitterapi        count    gt   2       oauth   array       oauth consumer key    gt   consumer key       oauth token    gt   token       oauth nonce    gt   string mt rand       a stronger nonce is recommended      oauth timestamp    gt  time         oauth signature method    gt   HMAC-SHA1        oauth version    gt   1 0       oauth   array map  rawurlencode    oauth      must be encoded before sorting  query   array map  rawurlencode    query     arr   array merge  oauth   query      combine the values THEN sort  asort  arr      secondary sort  value  ksort  arr      primary sort  key      http build query automatically encodes  but our parameters    are already encoded  and must be by this point  so we undo    the encoding step  querystring   urldecode http build query  arr        amp        url    https    host path       mash everything together for the text to hash  base string    method   amp   rawurlencode  url    amp   rawurlencode  querystring       same with the key  key   rawurlencode  consumer secret    amp   rawurlencode  token secret       generate the hash  signature   rawurlencode base64 encode hash hmac  sha1    base string   key  true         this time we re using a normal GET query  and we re only encoding the query params     without the oauth params   url        http build query  query    url str replace   amp amp     amp    url     Patch by  Frewuill   oauth  oauth signature      signature     don t want to abandon all that work  ksort  oauth      probably not necessary  but twitter s demo does it     also not necessary  but twitter s demo does this too function add quotes  str    return      str         oauth   array map  add quotes    oauth       this is the full value of the Authorization line  auth    OAuth     urldecode http build query  oauth                  if you re doing post  you need to skip the GET building above    and instead supply query parameters to CURLOPT POSTFIELDS  options   array  CURLOPT HTTPHEADER   gt  array  Authorization   auth                        CURLOPT POSTFIELDS   gt   postfields                    CURLOPT HEADER   gt  false                    CURLOPT URL   gt   url                    CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER   gt  true                    CURLOPT SSL VERIFYPEER   gt  false       do our business  feed   curl init    curl setopt array  feed   options    json   curl exec  feed   curl close  feed     twitter data   json decode  json     Hope It helps somebody with the same problem I had

Important Note  As of mid-2018  the process to get twitter API tokens became a lot more bureaucratic  It has taken me over one working week to be provided a set of API tokens  and this is for an open source project for you guys and girls with over 1 2 million installations on Packagist and 1 6k stars on Github  which theoretically should be higher priority  If you are tasked with working with the twitter API for your work  you must take this potentially extremely long wait-time into account  Also consider other social media avenues like Facebook or Instagram and provide these options  as the process for retrieving their tokens is instant    So you want to use the Twitter v1 1 API  Note  the files for these are on GitHub  Version 1 0 will soon be deprecated and unauthorised requests won t be allowed  So  here s a post to help you do just that  along with a PHP class to make your life easier   1  Create a developer account  Set yourself up a developer account on Twitter  You need to visit the official Twitter developer site and register for a developer account  This is a free and necessary step to make requests for the v1 1 API   2  Create an application  Create an application on the Twitter developer site  What  You thought you could make unauthenticated requests  Not with Twitter s v1 1 API  You need to visit http   dev twitter com apps and click the  quot Create Application quot  button   On this page  fill in whatever details you want  For me  it didn t matter  because I just wanted to make a load of block requests to get rid of spam followers  The point is you are going to get yourself a set of unique keys to use for your application  So  the point of creating an application is to give yourself  and Twitter  a set of keys  These are   The consumer key The consumer secret The access token The access token secret  There s a little bit of information here on what these tokens for   3  Create access tokens  You ll need these to make successful requests  OAuth requests a few tokens  So you need to have them generated for you   Click  quot create my access token quot  at the bottom  Then once you scroll to the bottom again  you ll have some newly generated keys  You need to grab the four previously labelled keys from this page for your API calls  so make a note of them somewhere   4  Change access level  You don t want read-only  do you   If you want to make any decent use of this API  you ll need to change your settings to Read  amp  Write if you re doing anything other than standard data retrieval using GET requests   Choose the  quot Settings quot  tab near the top of the page   Give your application read   write access  and hit  quot Update quot  at the bottom  You can read more about the applications permission model that Twitter uses here    5  Write code to access the API  I ve done most of it for you  I combined the code above  with some modifications and changes  into a PHP class so it s really simple to make the requests you require  This uses OAuth and the Twitter v1 1 API  and the class I ve created which you can find below  require once  TwitterAPIExchange php         Set access tokens here - see  https   dev twitter com apps       settings   array       oauth access token    gt   quot YOUR OAUTH ACCESS TOKEN quot        oauth access token secret    gt   quot YOUR OAUTH ACCESS TOKEN SECRET quot        consumer key    gt   quot YOUR CONSUMER KEY quot        consumer secret    gt   quot YOUR CONSUMER SECRET quot      Make sure you put the keys you got from your application above in their respective spaces  Next you need to choose a URL you want to make a request to  Twitter has their API documentation to help you choose which URL and also the request type  POST or GET       URL for REST request  see  https   dev twitter com docs api 1 1       url    https   api twitter com 1 1 blocks create json    requestMethod    POST    In the documentation  each URL states what you can pass to it  If we re using the  quot blocks quot  URL like the one above  I can pass the following POST parameters      POST fields required by the URL above  See relevant docs as above      postfields   array       screen name    gt   usernameToBlock         skip status    gt   1      Now that you ve set up what you want to do with the API  it s time to make the actual request      Perform the request and echo the response      twitter   new TwitterAPIExchange  settings   echo  twitter- gt buildOauth  url   requestMethod               - gt setPostfields  postfields               - gt performRequest     And for a POST request  that s it  For a GET request  it s a little different  Here s an example      Note  Set the GET field BEFORE calling buildOauth         url    https   api twitter com 1 1 followers ids json    getfield     username J7mbo    requestMethod    GET    twitter   new TwitterAPIExchange  settings   echo  twitter- gt setGetfield  getfield               - gt buildOauth  url   requestMethod               - gt performRequest           Final code example  For a simple GET request for a list of my followers   url    https   api twitter com 1 1 followers list json    getfield     username J7mbo amp skip status 1    requestMethod    GET    twitter   new TwitterAPIExchange  settings   echo  twitter- gt setGetfield  getfield               - gt buildOauth  url   requestMethod               - gt performRequest       I ve put these files on GitHub with credit to  lackovic10 and  rivers  I hope someone finds it useful  I know I did  I used it for bulk blocking in a loop    Also  for those on Windows who are having problems with SSL certificates  look at this post  This library uses cURL under the hood so you need to make sure you have your cURL certs set up probably  Google is also your friend
