I’m trying to retrieve data from Twitter by connecting to its API and make some requests but I always get nothing in return… I just requested the bearer token and successfully received it.
Here is the code in PHP:
$url = “https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?count=10&screen_name=twitterapi”;
$headers = array(
“GET”.$url." HTTP/1.1",
“Host: api.twitter.com”,
“User-Agent: My Twitter App v1.0.23”,
“Authorization: Bearer “.$bearer_token.””,
“Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8”,
);
$ch = curl_init(); // setup a curl
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url); // set url to send to
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); // set custom headers
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); // return output
$retrievedhtml = curl_exec ($ch); // execute the curl
print_r($retrievedhtml);
var_dump($retrievedhtml);
Here is another way I have tried but also I got the same results
$url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?count=10&screen_name=twitterapi";
$context = stream_context_create(array("https" => array("method" => "GET",
"header" => "GET /1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?count=100&screen_name=twitterapi HTTP/1.1 \r\n" .
"Host: api.twitter.com \r\n" .
"User-Agent: My Twitter App v1.0.23 \r\n" .
"Authorization: Bearer " . $bearer_token . "\r\n" .
"Accept-Encoding: gzip \r\n" )));
$data = @file_get_contents($url, true, $context);
$respone= json_decode($data, true);
print_r($respone);
var_dump($respone);
when using the print_r nothing is shown at all and when using the var_dump i found “bool(false)”
Any idea with what could be wrong with this?
Regards,
