How to install manually

[Markismx1]

I don't have composer, and I don't plan to use it. I'm just trying to implement a simple tweet bot to post links to articles from my website to twitter. My website is on a hosting provider. So can you please tell me how to install manually?

1. Download the latest release.
2. Unpack the source code
3. Require autoload.php

I get the following error when using that method...

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class "Composer\CaBundle\CaBundle" not found in C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\vendor\src\TwitterOAuth.php:572 Stack trace: #0 C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\vendor\src\TwitterOAuth.php(620): Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth->curlOptions() #1 C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\vendor\src\TwitterOAuth.php(557): Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth->request('https://api.twi...', 'GET', 'Authorization: ...', Array, false) #2 C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\vendor\src\TwitterOAuth.php(490): Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth->oAuthRequest('https://api.twi...', 'GET', Array, false) #3 C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\vendor\src\TwitterOAuth.php(467): Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth->makeRequests('https://api.twi...', 'GET', Array, false) #4 C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\vendor\src\TwitterOAuth.php(232): Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth->http('GET', 'https://api.twi...', 'account/verify...', Array, false) #5 C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\twitter.php(12): Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth->get('account/verify...') #6 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\nnrsd\handlers\vendor\src\TwitterOAuth.php on line 572

You'll have to manually install ca-bundle as well. I'd recommend you install using composer on another machine and deploy the vendor directory from that install. It'll be much easier.

I was looking for the same solution, so I hope this helps someone out.

Here's how to use twitteroauth without composer:

Grab both of these packages and extract them to a directory - I used /includes/

https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth
https://github.com/composer/ca-bundle

Then in your PHP file, use:

require_once('/path/to/includes/ca-bundle/src/CaBundle.php');
require_once('/path/to/includes/twitteroauth/autoload.php');

use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;

$connection = new TwitterOAuth($consumerKey, $consumerSecret, $accessToken, $accessTokenSecret);
$content = $connection->get("account/verify_credentials");
print_r($content);

If you see any output, you know it's working.

I could do with some help on this too! Ive tried the method above without success ... any pointers? Heres my php code:

`<?php

$CONSUMER_KEY = 'xxxx'; $CONSUMER_SECRET = 'xxxx'; $access_token = 'xxxx'; $access_token_secret = 'xxxx';

require_once('twit_includes/ca-bundle-main/src/CaBundle.php'); require_once('twit_includes/twitteroauth-main/autoload.php');

use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;

$connection = new TwitterOAuth($CONSUMER_KEY, $CONSUMER_SECRET, $access_token, $access_token_secret); $content = $connection->get("account/verify_credentials"); print_r($content);

?>`

What does you error log show?

[jwafal]

Don't get an error - must stress, Im front-end usually so dont know much about PHP (hence not wanting to use composer).. but have checked hosting logs and its not showing any errors

[qcybb]

Hmm .. without any errors, it's hard to know what's going on. I know I had an issue where I had to re-create the consumer key and access tokens for it to work.

[jwafal]

ok, thats an idea... i'll try that. Thanks for your thoughts!
