Twitter API

It provides a standard method to call common Twitter functions. Most functions have a limit in the number of times that can be called or in the number of bytes returned in a given time period. It is also possible to pay to get a special access to Twitter.

Esta proporciona una método estándar para llamar funciones comunes de Twitter. La mayoría de las funciones tienen un límite en el número de veces que pueden llamarse o en el número de bytes que regresan en un periodo de tiempo dado. Es posible también pagar por un acceso especial en Twitter.

Twitter Application-only authentication

Instead of using a specific user, it is possible to authenticate on behalf of an application. To use this method, you need to register your application in https://apps.twitter.com.

En lugar de usar un usuario específico, es posible autenticar con la identidad de un programa. Para usar este método, usted necesita registrar su programa en https://apps.twitter.com.

Problem 1

Use your personal Twitter account to register an application called as your last name, open to the following URL: https://apps.twitter.com. To register your program, you will have your mobile phone validated and the web site of your company. If the registration is successful, Twitter Developer will provide you a Consumer Key and a Consumer Secret. Store these values in a safe place. These values are required to create a program to interact with Twitter.

Use su cuenta personal de Twitter para registrar un programa llamado como su apellido, abra el siguiente URL: https://apps.twitter.com. Para registrar su programa, usted necesitará tener su teléfono celular validado y el sitio web de su compañía. Si el registro es exitoso, Twitter Developer le proporcionará un Consumer Key y un Consumer Secret. Guarde estos valores un lugar seguro. Estos valores son requeridos para crear un programa que interactúa con Twitter.

Twitter Bearer Token

It is a text string that is used for authorization so that an application can interact with Twitter.

Es una cadena de texto que es usada para autorización del tal modo que un programa pueda interactuar con Twitter.

Problem 2

Create a Wintempla Dialog application called MyToken to obtain a Bearer Token from Twitter. A Bearer Token in a string that is required to call Twitter functions. You must temporarily store the Bearer Token. Note that the Bearer Token is valid for a specific amount of time. We will use WinHTTP to connect to Twitter, you can also use WinINet or sockets.

Cree una aplicación de Diálogo de Wintempla llamada MyToken para obtener un Bearer Token desde Twitter. Un Bearer Token es un cadena de texto que es requerida para llamar las funciones de Twitter. Usted debe temporalmente almacenar el Bearer Token. Note que el Bearer Token es válido por un cantidad específica de tiempo. Nosotros usaremos WinHTTP para conectarnos a Twitter, usted también puede usar WinINet o sockets.

Tip

To get authorization, the AUTHORIZATION KEY (in the previous figure) must be generated as follows:

Use RFC 1738 (URL encode) to encode the Consumer Key and the Consumer Secret
Concatenate the encoded Consumer Key, a colon character : and the encoded Consumer Secret
Encode the previous string using Base64 encoding

Para conseguir autorización, la AUTHORIZATION KEY (en la figura previa) debe ser generada como sigue:

Use RFC 1738 (URL encode) para codificar la Consumer Key y la Consumer Secret
Concatene la Consumer Key codificada, con el símbolo de dos puntos : y la Consumer Secret codificada
Codifique la cadena previa usando Base64
