Question

I am trying to write an php twitter script which will be run by crontab, what the script does is to get the tweets from a dedicated twitter account.

I have looked at some of the php twitter oauth libraries, all of them seem to use redirect to a twitter page to get a token, then goes back to a callback link. In my case I don’t want to have any user interaction at all.

Could anyone please tell me what I should do?

Regards

James

Twitter provides a single access token feature on dev.twitter.com designed just for this use.
