Question

Are there any example how to sign in to twitter in aim to get user id ?

I want to implement sign in to my app using twitter. For that reason i want to get user twitter id.
There are lots of examples how to implement almost all twitter app, but i don’t need this.

In twitter documentation there are new sign in way it’s called xAuth:
xAuth

In this there are example of sign in:

oauth_consumer_key - JvyS7DO2qd6NNTsXJ4E7zA
oauth_consumer_secret - 9z6157pUbOBqtbm0A0q4r29Y2EYzIHlUwbF4Cl9c
oauth_nonce - 6AN2dKRzxyGhmIXUKSmp1JcB4pckM8rD3frKMTmVAo
oauth_signature_method - HMAC-SHA1
oauth_timestamp - 1284565601
oauth_version - 1.0
x_auth_mode - client_auth
x_auth_password - twitter-xauth
x_auth_username - oauth_test_exec

I don’t get, how to retrieve oauth_consumer_key, oauth_consumer_secret, oauth_nonce

Maybe there are example of simple sign in using OAuth ?

Thanks.

To get Consumer Key & Consumer Secret, you have to create an app in Twitter via this link.

Then you’ll be taking to page containing Consumer Key & Consumer Secret

U can use sharekit for authentication in twitter just provide your apps Consumer Key & Consumer Secret in it
