First, you need to Authenticate your request (Get permission).
second, see follow these steps:
1.Download FHSTwitterEngine Twitter Library.
2.Add the folder FHSTwitterEngine" to your project and #import "FHSTwitterEngine.h".
3.add SystemConfiguration.framework to your project.
Usage : 1.in the [ViewDidLoad] add the following code.
UIButton *logIn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
logIn.frame = CGRectMake(100, 100, 100, 100);
[logIn setTitle:@"Login" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[logIn addTarget:self action:@selector(showLoginWindow:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:logIn];
[[FHSTwitterEngine sharedEngine]permanentlySetConsumerKey:@"<consumer_key>" andSecret:@"<consumer_secret>"];
[[FHSTwitterEngine sharedEngine]setDelegate:self];
and don't forget to import the delegate FHSTwitterEngineAccessTokenDelegate.
- you need to get the permission for your request, with the following method which will present Login window:
- (void)showLoginWindow:(id)sender {
[[FHSTwitterEngine sharedEngine]showOAuthLoginControllerFromViewController:self withCompletion:^(BOOL success) {
NSLog(success?@"L0L success":@"O noes!!! Loggen faylur!!!");
}];
}
when the Login window is presented, enter your Twitter Username and Password to authenticate your request.
- add the following methods to your code:
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
[[FHSTwitterEngine sharedEngine]loadAccessToken];
NSString *username = [[FHSTwitterEngine sharedEngine]loggedInUsername];// self.engine.loggedInUsername;
if (username.length > 0) {
lbl.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Logged in as %@",username];
[self listResults];
} else {
lbl.text = @"You are not logged in.";
}
}
- (void)storeAccessToken:(NSString *)accessToken {
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]setObject:accessToken forKey:@"SavedAccessHTTPBody"];
}
- (NSString *)loadAccessToken {
return [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]objectForKey:@"SavedAccessHTTPBody"];
}
4.Now you are ready to get your request, with the following method(in this method I created a Twitter search for some Hashtag, to get the screen_name for example):
- (void)listResults {
dispatch_async(GCDBackgroundThread, ^{
@autoreleasepool {
[UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = YES;
// the following line contains a FHSTwitterEngine method wich do the search.
dict = [[FHSTwitterEngine sharedEngine]searchTweetsWithQuery:@"#iOS" count:100 resultType:FHSTwitterEngineResultTypeRecent unil:nil sinceID:nil maxID:nil];
// NSLog(@"%@",dict);
NSArray *results = [dict objectForKey:@"statuses"];
// NSLog(@"array text = %@",results);
for (NSDictionary *item in results) {
NSLog(@"text == %@",[item objectForKey:@"text"]);
NSLog(@"name == %@",[[item objectForKey:@"user"]objectForKey:@"name"]);
NSLog(@"screen name == %@",[[item objectForKey:@"user"]objectForKey:@"screen_name"]);
NSLog(@"pic == %@",[[item objectForKey:@"user"]objectForKey:@"profile_image_url_https"]);
}
dispatch_sync(GCDMainThread, ^{
@autoreleasepool {
UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Complete!" message:@"Your list of followers has been fetched" delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[av show];
[UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = NO;
}
});
}
});
}
That's all.
I just got the screen_name from a search Query, you can get a timeline for a user using the following methods:
// statuses/user_timeline
- (id)getTimelineForUser:(NSString *)user isID:(BOOL)isID count:(int)count;
- (id)getTimelineForUser:(NSString *)user isID:(BOOL)isID count:(int)count sinceID:(NSString *)sinceID maxID:(NSString *)maxID;
instead of the search method above.
Note: see the FHSTwitterEngine.h to know what method you need to use.
Note: to get the <consumer_key> and the <consumer_secret> you need to to visit this link
to register your app in Twitter.
