I'm developing API to integrate rails app with twitter.
I receive from client only:
{
provider: 'twitter',
user_id: 'USER_ID',
access_token: 'ACCESS_TOKEN'
}
But I need create user and save it into database if user is not registered etc. I have models user and authentication (user has many authentications):
class User
validate :first_name, :last_name, :email,
presense: true
has_many :providers
endd
class Authentication
validate :provider, :user_id, :access_token, :refresh_token, :expires_at,
presense: true
belongs_to :user
end
Twitter app is already created and all permissions are set up correctly.
Problem:
To save user with authentication into DB - I need to have all fields.
Question:
If I have provider, user_id and access_token,
how can I get additional fields:
email, first_name, last_name, refresh_token and expires_at.
Which API request should I make?
P.S. I found that with gem "twitter" I can get user information:
@client = Twitter::REST::Client.new do |config|
config.consumer_key = "TWITTER_API_KEY"
config.consumer_secret = "TWITTER_API_SECRET"
end
user_info = @client.user 'USER_ID'
It returns an object with user info, which contain first_name and last_names.
But I still don't know how to get email, refresh_token and expires_at fields. :(
