Twitter oauth guideline with Example

About:

By  using this blog you can access data from twitter Server on OAuth standard. Twitter will give all data of a particular user except  password. So that you can use it in your product development.you can do this by using Facebook and Google too.Hopefully i will post all that stuff later on.

Recently i have finished one application related to Twitter oauth where i face many problem while developing  because i didn't find one good documentation from internet.
So if you are one of them then relay this blog will be very useful to you

To Develop this several third party apis are there but basically i use Twitter-4j api.
Follow the below guideline for Getting start.

Pre-Requirements:

1.Any live hosting server in testing or developing mood.(because call back url will not work for localhost)
2.A twitter account
3.Twitter4J API: you need twitter4j-core-[verson].jar to your built path
4.You can refer api Doc

Getting Start/Register one App with Twitter:

1.Create a new application on twitter development environment
2.Click on create new application.
                         

3. Fill-up the details as shown in below screen shot

                                 
    Name:your app name any thing(in my case getRef)
    Description:what is the motto of your app(you can get......)
   Website:your publicly available web site where you are planing to deploy your app.
   callback URL:  Give one hosting environment address because in local host it will not work
   click on create your twitter application

4.Click on create a new application:
  it will give you the following details listed below
      Consumer key
Consumer secret
Request token URL
Authorize URL
Access token URL
Callback URL

5. it's important in callback URL don't give you localhost
    it will not work
    twitter has already remover that option
    so use any live hosting environment and for students use any free cloud server
    for deploy your app by loin for personal use
    eg:-Google app engine,amazon cloud server

    later you will use all the information above while developing your application so note it down.


Example:

Here i use spring-mvc and Google app engine for Deploying this application.In face you can use ioc for injection dependency.

1.i use one Controller to handle all this stuff(GetDataFromTwitter.java) infect you can use servlet also
2.One jsp page to redirect to my app(Welcome.jsp)/optional one
3.Another jsp to ask conformation before redirecting to twitter server(login.jsp)
4.Another one for Displaying the user details. Infect you can  use the user  details/information for further business processing.But in order to complete this blog i display the user information(success.jsp).


Welcome.jsp:(Just for the worm welcome any way this is optional one)
