This is a forked version of thujon/twitter, with the initial goal of adding support for video media uploads.
Twitter API for Laravel 6.
You need to create an application and create your access token in the Application Management.
Add scottybo/twitter to composer.json.
"scottybo/twitter": "~2.0"
Run composer update to pull down the latest version of Twitter.
Or run
composer require scottybo/twitter
Now open up /config/app.php and add the service provider to your providers array.
'providers' => [
Scottybo\Twitter\TwitterServiceProvider::class,
]Now add the alias.
'aliases' => [
'Twitter' => Scottybo\Twitter\Facades\Twitter::class,
]The package now requires PHP >= 5.4.0
Facade has changed (Scottybo\Twitter\Facades\Twitter)
Config file has been updated (debug, UPLOAD_URL, ACCESS_TOKEN_URL, REQUEST_TOKEN_URL)
set_new_config() has been renamed reconfig()
Run php artisan config:publish scottybo/twitter and modify the config file with your own informations.
/app/config/packages/scottybo/twitter/config.php
Also, make sure to remove the env in the config file and replace it with your information.
Run php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Scottybo\Twitter\TwitterServiceProvider" and modify the config file with your own information.
/config/ttwitter.php
With Laravel 5, it's simple to edit the config.php file - in fact you don't even need to touch it! Just add the following to your .env file and you'll be on your way:
TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY=
TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET=
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN=
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET=

});Updates the authenticating user's current status with media.
Route::get('/tweetMedia', function()
{

});Get User Credentials with email.
$credentials = Twitter::getCredentials([
'include_email' => 'true',
]);
In the above, you need to pass true as a string, not as a boolean. The boolean will get converted to
1which Twitter ignores.
This also is assuming you have your permissions setup correctly with Twitter. You have to choose 'Get user email' when you set up your Twitter app, passing the value alone will not be enough.
