twitter-rest-lite

Yet another Twitter's API library for Node.js, yes.

Testing

In order to get testing done, first create the file test/config.json with the following format:

{
  "consumer_key": "Your credential from Twitter's Developer Interface",
  "consumer_secret": "Your credential from Twitter's Developer Interface",
  "token": "Your credential from Twitter's Developer Interface",
  "token_secret": "Your credential from Twitter's Developer Interface",
  "callback": "Either your callback or `oob` if is a desktop app"
}

Now run:

npm test

Known Issues

• There's no testing unit for OAuth.proto.accessToken but the example uses it.

Using

var Twitter = require('twitter-rest-lite'),
    keys,
    tt, ttoauth, ttapi;

keys = { consumer_key: 'blahblahblah', consumer_secret: 'blahblahblah', callback: '...' };

tt = new Twitter(keys);

// Just Twitter's OAuth REST interface
ttoauth = new Twitter.OAuth(keys);

// Using API module required `token` and `token_secret` on `keys`.
keys['token'] = '...';
keys['token_secret'] = '...';

// Just Twitter's basic GET/POST interface
ttapi = new Twitter.API(keys);

ttapi.get('/statuses/mentions_timeline.json', params, function(err, response) {
  ...
});
