Twitter OAuth

[ahulse]

Does anyone know of an Architect 2 twitter OAuth example project?

It would be helpful if I could get some assistance in using twitter signin authentication.

I have the needed key and secret and twitter development app but need to know the best way to deal with the non-json passing of the twitter tokens.

It seems, according to their website that the v1 twitter api has now been retired as of June 11th. It means that any that have been depending on it in an application are now stuck

So, now we have api 1.1 - but this now requires OAuth authentication to access any of the feeds.

Would it be possible to get some guidance to help those of us that are wondering what we have to do within our sencha architect apps to transition...

Many thanks,
Allister

HI Aaron - did you ever get anywhere with this? Like you, I'm stuck... hopefully you became less stuck and can let me know how...

Thanks,

Guys, you are not going to be able to tackle the oauth issue with client side alone. The following resources should get you moving in the right direction.

Hi there Jason.

In fact I just had an email back from Daniel Gallo from Sencha here in the UK, who's realised that his Twitter App (which is one of the really good apps that has been set out in on a screen cast for Sencha users and teaches good architect development) doesn't actually work anymore!

As I said to him, it would seem that Twitter is too big a player in the app world for there not to be a good, standard Sencha approach to connecting with it. He was planning to rework his app to try and solve the OAuth challenge for Sencha, but I'm sure he'd appreciate help if you can give it.
