Q. How to create twitter APP?, _(*4)

A. Everything is here https://apps.twitter.com/, _(*5)

use this on top of your class:, _(*6)

use Twitter\Twitter;

Now we are going to make a request for twitter authorization, _(*7)

function twitterLogin ($consumerKey, $consumerSecret)
{
    $twitterOauth = new TwitterOAuth($consumerKey, $consumerSecret);
    //this callback url should trigger your callback function, so please set this url as you platform
    //in my case my callback url is *www.example.com/twitterCallback*
    $url = 'YOUR-CALLBACK-URL';
    //requesting for access token
    $request_token = $twitterOauth->getRequestToken($url);
    //stroing token into session
    $_SESSION['oauth_token'] = $request_token ['oauth_token'];
    $_SESSION['oauth_token_secret'] = $request_token ['oauth_token_secret'];
    // If everything goes well..
    if ($twitterOauth->http_code == 200) {
        // Let's generate the URL and redirect
        $url = $twitterOauth->getAuthorizeURL($request_token ['oauth_token']);
        header('Location: '.$url);
        exit();
    } else {
        // It's a bad idea to kill the script, but we've got to know when there's an error.
        die('Something wrong happened.');
    }
}

Now we are going to make a callback fucntion. This function will be execute after success login from twitter, _(*8)

function twitterCallback()
{
    if (isset($_GET ['oauth_verifier']) && $_GET ['oauth_verifier'] != "") {
        $twitterOauth = new TwitterOAuth($consumerKey, $consumerSecret, $_SESSION['oauth_token'], $_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']);
        $twitterOauth->getAccessToken($_GET ['oauth_verifier']);
        //fetching user information
        $user_info = $twitterOauth->get('account/verify_credentials');
        if (!isset($user_info->error)) {
            //now you have user profile info, now you can do whatever you want
            echo "

";print_r($user_info);echo "

";

            //lets tweet on user timeline if you want
            $status = $twitterOauth->post('statuses/update', ['status' => 'YOUR-STATUS-MESSAGE']);
        }
    } else {
        die("There was an error.");
    }
}
