Twitter API OAuth Proxy

The Twitter 1.1 API only supports authenticated requests, breaking code that relies on anonymous access to the API. In particular, this affects Javascript code, as you would not want to put your access tokens and secrets in publicly visible JS.

This simple PHP script acts as a proxy between your client and the Twitter API, authenticating your requests.

To prevent abuse, there is a whitelist feature, so you can list the specific URLs for which the script will respond.

Also, the script includes a caching feature which will prevent your application from exceeding the limits imposed by the Twitter API.

The main part of the code is from Mike Rogers http://mikerogers.io/2013/02/25/how-use-twitter-oauth-1-1-javascriptjquery.html

Caching code is mostly from Matt Mombrea https://github.com/mombrea/twitter-api-php-cached
