I have integrated Twitter API (Twitter OAuth) to get latest feeds of particular company account and here below is my code what I have done so far (https://tomelliott.com/php/authenticating-twitter-feed-timeline-oauth).
<?php
require_once("twitteroauth/twitteroauth.php"); //Path to twitteroauth library
$twitteruser = "CompanyName";
$notweets = 3;
$consumerkey = "xxxxxxxx";
$consumersecret = "xxxxxxxx";
$accesstoken = "xxxxxxxx";
$accesstokensecret = "xxxxxxxx";
function getConnectionWithAccessToken($cons_key, $cons_secret, $oauth_token, $oauth_token_secret)
{
$connection = new TwitterOAuth($cons_key, $cons_secret, $oauth_token, $oauth_token_secret);
return $connection;
}
$connection = getConnectionWithAccessToken($consumerkey, $consumersecret, $accesstoken, $accesstokensecret);
$tweets = $connection->get("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=" . $twitteruser . "&count=" . $notweets);
?>
<?php foreach ($tweets as $current_tweet) { ?>
<div class="card">
<div class="card-body">
<div class="media">
<div class="media-body">
<h5 class="F-20 themeFontGrey MontSemBold text-uppercase">REGENCY CORPORATE</h5>
<p class="MontRegular themeFontGrey">
<?php
$date = $current_tweet->created_at;
echo date("F d Y, H:i A", strtotime($date));
?>
</p>
</div>
<?php
$twitt_url = '#';
$twitter_target = '';
if (!empty($current_tweet->id)) {
$twitt_url = 'https://twitter.com/' . $twitteruser . '/status/' . $current_tweet->id;
$twitter_target = 'target="_blank"';
}
?>
<a href="<?php echo $twitt_url; ?>" class="hovicon effect-5 news-icon" <?php echo $twitter_target; ?> >
<i class="fa fa-twitter"></i>
</a>
</div>
<p class="MontRegular themeFontGrey">
<?php echo $current_tweet->text; ?>
</p>
</div>
<?php if (!empty($current_tweet->entities->media[0]->media_url)) { ?>
<div class="newsImages">
<img src="<?php echo $current_tweet->entities->media[0]->media_url; ?>" alt="Images" height="20%" width="20%" />
</div>
<?php
} ?>
<hr />
</div>
<?php
} ?>
This works well, I am getting 3 latest tweets. Now I want to add pagination into this, hence I followed documentation provided by Twitter (https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/basics/cursoring.html), and below is my updated code with cursor
for the same and I printed the array (response).
<?php
require_once("twitteroauth/twitteroauth.php"); //Path to twitteroauth library
$twitteruser = "CompanyName";
$notweets = 3;
$cursor = -1;
$consumerkey = "xxxxxxxx";
$consumersecret = "xxxxxxxx";
$accesstoken = "xxxxxxxx";
$accesstokensecret = "xxxxxxxx";
function getConnectionWithAccessToken($cons_key, $cons_secret, $oauth_token, $oauth_token_secret)
{
$connection = new TwitterOAuth($cons_key, $cons_secret, $oauth_token, $oauth_token_secret);
return $connection;
}
$connection = getConnectionWithAccessToken($consumerkey, $consumersecret, $accesstoken, $accesstokensecret);
$tweets = $connection->get("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=" . $twitteruser . "&count=" . $notweets . "&cursor=" . $cursor);
echo '<pre>';
print_r($tweets);
exit;
?>
As you can see, here I have added $cursor = -1;
and updated my api target url to $tweets = $connection->get("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=" . $twitteruser . "&count=" . $notweets . "&cursor=" . $cursor);
, passing cursor
value.
Here I am getting the 3 recent tweets, however, as per mentioned in documentation from above link (https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/basics/cursoring.html), you should get response like below.
{
"ids": [
385752029,
602890434,
...
333181469,
333165023
],
"next_cursor": 1374004777531007833,
"next_cursor_str": "1374004777531007833",
"previous_cursor": 0,
"previous_cursor_str": "0"
}
I have also tried to update requested feed url to this.
$tweets = $connection->get("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=" . $twitteruser . "&cursor=" . $cursor);
But I am not getting any keys like next_cursor
in any ways so far to be able to proceed. Can someone guide me, what I am doing wrong here, and what should I do to enable pagination from here on?
Any help or suggestion will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
