Any Perl equivalent for "three lines" ?  I can convert to PHP if
needed, but it is a bit of a hassle...

Cameron,

Thank you for replying.. I looked at your code and was very quickly
overwhelmed.

I can (well, used to) update using three lines:

$twitter_tweet = "tweet out something here";
$twitter_api = 'curl --basic --user name:password --data status="'.
$twitter_tweet.'" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml > /dev/null
2> /dev/null';
system ("$twitter_api");

I have no desire to rule the world with twitter and all this
authentication stuff now is like shoveling a small walkway with a
bulldozer! I just want to quickly update my own twitter account. It
can't be this hard, can it?? Can't I just grab a key and put it in the
mix here?

I just want the same functionality I had with those three little
lines

I posted a question similar except using perl.. All the subroutine
does is update a twitter account using curl. All this OAuth stuff
seems like it is shoveling a small driveway with a bulldozer! Updates
are done on about 100 domains, so does that mean we have to register
100 apps and every time we put the updating on a new site, register
that as well...

Is there any Perl sample code or do you all just consider Perl old
fart software?

[twitter-dev] Curl question

2010-09-03 Thread Gerard M
I have a really small "app" that uses curl in a perl script..
automated stuff like updates, when emails were sent out, stuff like
that. It stopped sending tweets to my account about a day ago and
won't work from the command line. Does twitter now consider this stuff
an "app" I have to register for?? I can;t find any documentation on
any of this, just full-blown public apps.

Anyone know if I can use a system call from a perl script using curl
anymore or is this all gone?
What if I use http://api.twitter.com/statuses/update.xml instead?

Seems overcomplicated to something that was dead simple...
