Using Twurl we can see our access tokens for particular applications - but is there any way to see our Access Token Secret as well?

Is there any way at all to see our Access Token Secrets (besides the dev.twitter application page - which shows the secret ONLY if you have have created the application )?

/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:560:in `initialize': getaddrinfo: Name or service not known (SocketError)

i use my own host , linke this:

twurl authorize -u myname -p passwd --consumer-key Xdhr9Hz7DOw --consumer-secret 2TnM -H https://baga3.org/b3tt/t/

Dear all,

i usr twurl in China,so i must use HTTP Porxy to authorize and send data,but i cannt find howto about proxy.

so , anyone would help me ?

I did sudo gem install twurl and everything when fine and version 0.6.7 is successfully installed :)
Then authorized the app twurl authorize -u X -p X --consumer-key X --consumer-secret X and supplied the pin and got : Authorization successful Yay!

Sadly

twurl -d "status=Tweet from twurl" /1/statuses/update.xml

leads to

Have tried other commands like twurl /1/statuses/home_timeline.xml and it works flawless ... I have 0 ruby knowledge so I can't help ;(

unless I am doing something wrong, i am not able to do anything with what the program returns.

for example
twurl /1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=userxyz&count=1 | grep -i id_str
or
twurl /1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=userxyz&count=1 > test.txt

both return a ton of information, they ignore the pipes and redirects

I was using Twurl successfully for several days, but I have bad timing, because the REST API has been depricated as of June 11. The error I now receive when trying to use Twurl is as follows:

Which directs me to the overview site for API v1.1. Unfortunately migrating this on my own is way over my head, so I'm hoping some people who are using Twurl are able to do this, or perhaps can offer an alternative. Thank you.

By executing Twurl with a pre-loaded access token and consumer keyset while including a "--pretend" or "--only-generate-http-headers" option it would output a string simply consisting of the HTTP Authorization header. Developers could then use Twurl as a pipe for shell scripts with the ultimate destination of curl for the additional features it offers as an HTTP client.

Currently, including the = symbol inside any JSON body posted to the API via twurl causes the body content to be truncated at the = symbol, and the request will subsequently fail. This occurs even with the Content-Type set to application/json.

Allow twurl to make OAuth 2 app-only requests as described at https://dev.twitter.com/docs/auth/application-only-auth.

Twitter for Mac seems to support issuing some commands in anonymous mode. Some of them are certainly possible with curl:

# curl http://api.twitter.com/1/account/rate_limit_status.json
{"hourly_limit":150,"reset_time":"...
# curl http://api.twitter.com/1/related_results/show/123456.json
[{"results":[{"score":1.0,...

Would it be possible to have twurl do the same?

Currently:

# twurl /1/account/rate_limit_status.json
You must authorize first

Is there a way to use Twurl to parse only certain fields from the JSON? I want to run something like
twurl "/1.1/statuses/show/[TWEET ID].json"

and have it spit out only the following from the json:

"id_str", "text", "location", "geo", "coordinates", and "place"?

I receive the following output in my terminal and am unable to enter my Authorization PIN.

I am running Ruby Version:
ruby 2.1.4p265 (2014-10-27 revision 48166) [x86_64-darwin14.0]

How do I fix this so I can get the PIN prompt inside terminal?

I'm wondering how to save the output after connecting to the streaming API like this:

twurl -t -d track=mykeyword -H stream.twitter.com /1.1/statuses/filter.json

Thanks for your ideas!

Ever since a few days ago my Twurl stopped working, and now it keeps showing incorrect signature. Any ideas what could be wrong?

My solution: gem install require_all and then apply this diff: http://gist.github.com/400489.

If you do not specify -F, no default value is provided. This is in contrast with the command-line documentation, which states:

-F, --file-field [field_name]    Specify the file field for the upload to be included within (default: media)

Hello,

I would like to be able to post a tweet with an image and that is geo-tagged.

twurl -X POST "/1.1/statuses/update_with_media.json" --file pic.png -file-field "media[]" -d "status=Hello" geocode=39.45,-95.16

Thanks.

Twurl has been working fine up until I tried to add a new twitter account and made an error durong the process, forgetting to replace the word username with my twitter username, but still using all the rest of my credentials as same as my other twitter account.

Reinstalling ruby, yaml & twurl does not fix the problem so now I have no idea what to do, here is whet i remember doing

twurl authorize -u username -p password \

                --consumer-key the_key       \
                --consumer-secret the_secret

MY MISTAKE WAS TO USE THE WORD "username" accidentally for my twitter-name, then when I tried to list my accounts this happened and continues to happen.....

REINSTALLED RUBY, YAML, TWURL, OAUTH ETC - error continues to happen.

Can you please help fix this or identify some other places I can clean out i.e. local credential storage file or something.

TWURL does not seem to have a rollback facility, or an "unauthorise" command,

I really need your help.

Thanks

I believe I've found a bug in twurl running under ruby 1.9.3 regarding content type encoding. Specifically, I've found that reqeusts with an asterisk ('*') in the HTTP body fail under 1.9.3 but succeed under 1.8.7. I'm using the following command to test:

$ ruby --version && ./twurl --version && ./twurl /1.1/statuses/update\.json -d "status=An Introduction to the A* algorithm http://www.redblobgames.com/pathfinding/a-star/introduction.html"  -t

Under 1.8.7, I get:

ruby 1.8.7 (2011-02-18 patchlevel 334) [i686-darwin13.1.0], MBARI 0x6770, Ruby Enterprise Edition 2011.03

Under 1.9.3, I get:

Note that in 1.9.3, the status parameter in the HTTP body is not actually form-urlencoded even though that's the content-type, whereas, in 1.8.7, it is.

Hi,

The two step process to ensure the correct username is used (in a script for example):

twurl set default username
twurl tweet -d status="why's that?"

Seems a bit awkward. Couldn't -u be used for this or that would be curly?

coreyf@frewbook-pro /tmp> gem i twurl --source http://rubygems.org

{"errors":[{"code":"UNAUTHORIZED_CLIENT_APPLICATION","message":"The client application making this request does not have access to this API"}],"request":{"params":{}}}

Why does my client not have access to this API?

I am not sure if twurl supports the search API. If it does I can not figure out how to use it. I have tried
twurl 'q=the' search.twitter.com/search.json
and
twurl 'http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=the'
any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I run it from the twurl-0.8.1 directory, but I get these errors:

fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
rake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'dist:gem'

Is there an option to e.g. tweet from another profile without set default before?

Like @tester222 needs to tweet "hi".
The default is @tester111.

How to tweet as @tester222 without twurl set default tester222 before?

I have search query with geocode. How to specify it in the twurl ?

Is following the right way ?

twurl "/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=UCLAAthletics OR uclafootball&geocode=34.161389,-118.1675,5mi"

twurl -d 'status=this is a test & this is the second part' /1.1/statuses/update.json

twurl posts only the string up to (but not including) the ampersand:

this is a test

I was wondering if it'd be possible for one of you to add an argument to twurl that lets you specify your .twurlrc directory? I'd do it myself but I'm not really a ruby guy... I found my way around well enough to hard-code in where I needed it to look though, so not exactly urgent, but I think it'd be cool and if either of you agree and have the time it'd be really good.

Something like -P /home/user/.twurlrc would be super.

Note: the reason for this request is that I'm calling twurl from another service that strips out all ENV stuff, including location of homedir.

I just installed Twurl and am getting the following error when I try to authorize:

I want to POST a status via twurl but everything I get is
{"errors":[{"code":32,"message":"Could not authenticate you."}]}.
I checked my consumer key and secret multiple times, still it doesn't work. Does anyone know what's wrong?

I'm using twurl via the Mac Terminal and everything works fine except that I get timeout errors (for certain keywords) when accessing the search API. Is there anyway to rescue these timeout errors or set the timeout-treshold higher?

twurl -t -d track='very_rare_keyword' -H stream.twitter.com /1.1/statuses/filter.json >filename.json

yields (after roughly have a minute)

Can someone give me an example of how to post an update with an image using twurl ? This would be using media/upload and statuses/update.

I am by no means a programmer so please bear with me on this one. I was able to install Twurl with no trouble, but I'm having trouble with the authorization process.

After returning the URL to visit to authorize, I get the following error:

I believe I'm supposed to enter the supplied PIN, but never get asked for it.

I'd really appreciate any help you might be able to provide.

For some reason the --quiet / -q option is not working for me. Even with the flag, it outputs everything.

Side note: if there is an error anywhere it may still be nice to output to stderr or at least give a non-zero exit code.

I'm having trouble getting twurl to install cleanly on Ubuntu 10.10. Unfortunately, I've never touched Ruby and am having trouble figuring out the issue (wasted a day so far and feel like I made zero progress diagnosing the problem). I managed to get twurl working perfectly on my snow leopard laptop on the first go. Is there a linux distro you can recommend ... one where Ruby/twurl installs cleanly?

FYI ... the issue with Ubuntu is odd. First off, I can't seem to update gem. It is 1.3.7 on my Ubuntu box but 1.4.1 on my Mac. When I used the install commands for twurl, I see a success message on Ubuntu:

sudo gem i twurl --source http://rubygems.org
Successfully installed twurl-0.6.2
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for twurl-0.6.2...
Installing RDoc documentation for twurl-0.6.2...

However, when I do "which twurl", I don't see anything. On Mac, I see:
/usr/bin/twurl

I'd really appreciate an alternative distro recommendation and/or help getting this to work on Ubuntu.

P.S. Thanks for this excellent tool.

My tweets without images work fine and with images fail.

I'd uploaded my image:

$ twurl -H upload.twitter.com -X POST "/1.1/media/upload.json" --file "../../../blog/API SDK download in Developer Portal.png" --file-field "media"
{"media_id":852314091490168833,"media_id_string":"852314091490168833","size":94927,"expires_after_secs":86400,"image":{"image_type":"image/png","w":914,"h":646}}

Then when I twurl without the image - this works great.

With the image - it fails:

$ twurl "/1.1/statuses/update.json" -d "media_ids=852314091490168833&status=Sample Tweet with media_ids and twurl"
{"errors":[{"code":32,"message":"Could not authenticate you."}]}

The application has both Read and Write permissions.

Any ideas on what's going on?

It would be nice if twurl had an option to reformat the output to be more human readable. Just parse the JSON / XML enough to add newlines and indenting. No semantic understanding needed.

Using the media/metadata/create endpoint as described in https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/post/media/metadata/create requires adding a "Content-Type: application/json" header, but currently twurl (or the Ruby OAuth library it uses) overwrites this with "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded", resulting in a "401 Authorization Required" and "32 Could not authenticate you." response from the API.

Minimal solution would be to not overwrite such a header, better would be to support JSON content for POSTs.

I have been using twurl for over a year to run a series of twitter searches. I feed the json output to a json2csv system, and it started complaining about a month ago that the json output is invalid. I've taken the output of a number of searches and fed them into multiple json2csv systems online and they all say invalid json.

Did something happen between Nov 5 & 15th that would have changed this? I updated to the latest version of twurl and that didn't fix it.

I know squat about json, so I can't look at it and see what's wrong. All I know is all the json converters are complaining it's not valid. I'll cut and paste an example below.

I was unable to use accounts, so I ran gem uninstall twurl and then gem install twurl, getting 0.9.3. I made sure all my other gems were updated. I authorized my Twitter account, and can post to it from the command line. But when I type twurl accounts, I still get the following:

After installing twurl on ubuntu 8.0.4 I am getting the error when running any twurl command

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/twurl-0.6.1/bin/../lib/twurl/configuration_controller.rb:2: uninitialized constant Twurl::AbstractCommandController (NameError)

Any Ideas How to resolve this?

Hi, Can I use TWURL in PHP?

Hi,

I'm pretty new to twurl and Ruby and I'm wondering if �there's a way to "save" the authentification so that I don't have to re-enter my consumer key/secret and obtain a PIN everytime I restart twurl?

Thanks!

On some systems, running twurl can can cause the error:

rory@ubuntu:~/Documents/twurl$ ./bin/twurl
/home/rory/Documents/twurl/lib/twurl/request_controller.rb:2:in `<module:Twurl>':uninitialized constant Twurl::AbstractCommandController (NameError)

This smells like a file isn't being loaded, so looking at twurl.rb, the culprit is this:

library_files = Dir[File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "/twurl/**/*.rb")]
library_files.each do |file|
    require file
end

The reason this is a problem is the Dir[] construction doesn't guarantee any sort of order as it relies on the OS for ordering. We can see this by changing it to:

library_files = Dir[File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "/twurl/**/*.rb")]
puts "The first file loaded is: " + library_files.first
exit

Which outputs (on my system)
The first file loaded is: /home/rory/Documents/twurl/lib/twurl/request_controller.rb

Since request_controller subclasses AbstractCommandController, it fails because that file hasn't been loaded yet. There's two ways out of this: either specifying the requires by hand in order or setting up autoloads. (Rails dances around the issue by messing with autoload and using ActiveSupport for class symbol -> file name mapping)

I fixed this in my fork using autoloads and sent a pull request.

Hi,

This isn't your problem, but nothing else I've tried has come back with any help, so before I tear my hair completely out perhaps you could point me in the right direction.

Blindly following instructions I have installed oauth and twurl gems, this tells me so:

l$ gem list --local

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

oauth (0.4.2)
twurl (0.6.1)

But any attempt to run these on the command line gives the following results:

$ oauth
No command 'oauth' found, did you mean: blah blah blah

$ twurl
twurl: command not found

Now I'm sure there is something humiliatingly obvious that I've missed, as I say, just a pointer in the right direction is all I need.

Hamish.

I have a file that contains:

$ cat targeting.txt 
[{"operation_type":"Create","params":{"line_item_id":"6f9an","targeting_type":"LOCATION","targeting_value":"5122804691e5fecc"}},{"operation_type":"Delete","params":{"targeting_criterion_id":"b60b9z"}}]

I'd like to send the file contents in a POST request. I've tried various approaches, such as:

$ twurl -H ads-api.twitter.com -X POST -A "Content-Type: application/json" -d "@targeting.txt" "/1/batch/accounts/18ce54d4x5t/targeting_criteria" | jq
{
  "errors": [
    {
      "code": "INVALID",
      "message": "The JSON string format is invalid"
    }
  ],
  "request": [],
  "operation_errors": []
}

I've also tried -f targeting.txt but get 415 Unsupported Media Type error.

However, if I include the actual data in the request, it succeeds.

$ twurl -H ads-api.twitter.com -X POST -A "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[{"operation_type":"Create","params":{"line_item_id":"6f9an","targeting_type":"LOCATION","targeting_value":"5122804691e5fecc"}},{"operation_type":"Delete","params":{"targeting_criterion_id":"b60b9z"}}]' "/1/batch/accounts/18ce54d4x5t/targeting_criteria" | jq

    }
  ]
}

Any thoughts?

The error is described in this issue #58
but the title of that issue is misleading as it was originally just a call for help.

I tested on Ruby 2.1.6 and 2.3.0, as well as Twurl 0.9.2 and 0.9.3 with 100% the same results.
I tried various ways of (un)decorating the file, without any luck. I can however post status updates no problem, so my entire Authentication as well as software setup seems to work.

Here's the output:

Here is a mostly complete stack trace...

I fixed this locally by changing Twurl::OAuthClient#client_auth_parameters to return strings instead of symbols...

    def client_auth_parameters
      {'x_auth_username' => username, 'x_auth_password' => password, 'x_auth_mode' => 'client_auth'}
    end

Maybe this is a OAuth issue?

When using authorize with a consumer key and a secret key, i ran into an issue

C:\Users\Graeme>twurl authorize --consumer-key "{a key}" \ --consumer-secret "{another key}"
Go to {a url} and paste in the supplied PIN

I managed to fix it by replacing
pin = gets
on line 138 of oauth_client.rb with
pin = $stdin.gets
though I'm not sure if this change would break in other environments.
I'm new to contributing to open-source software, so I apologize in advance if i should have simply forked and created a pull request, or if this is otherwise the wrong place.
