Twitty

Ruby client for Twitter Business APIs

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'twitty'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install twitty

Usage

Initialize twitty in your project in an intializer or as required

$twitter = Twitty::Facade.new do |config|
 config.consumer_key = 'consumer key '
 config.consumer_secret = 'consumer secret'
 config.access_token = 'access token'
 config.access_token_secret = 'access token secret'
 config.base_url = 'https://api.twitter.com'
 config.environment = 'chatwootdev'
end

Use twitty to register your webhook on twitter as below

#fetch existing webhooks
$twitter.fetch_webhooks

#register a new webhook
$twitter.register_webhook(url: "https://xyc.com/webhooks/twitter")

You should handle the crc checks from twitter by processing the get requests to your webhooks url with a controller method similar to

 def twitter_crc
    render json: { response_token: "sha256=#{$twitter.generate_crc(params[:crc_token])}" }
 end

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
