Prerequisites
Go to Twitter Apps to create your app so that you can obtain API key and secret, note:
- Remember to set a Callback Url, whatever will work
- By default, Twitter won't allow you to grab user's email, so you have to apply for a permission for your app to retrieve user's email
Here is how callbacks would look like:
From Twitter Kit 3.3, Fabric is no longer required.

npm install @react-native-twitter-signin/twitter-signin --save

Linking Package Manually (not recommended)
- Add `TwitterKit`:
#### With CocoaPods
- Add TwitterKit to your `Podfile`
```
// Podfile
target 'MyApp' do
# use_frameworks!
pod 'TwitterKit5', '~> 3.3.0'
end
```
- Run `pod install`
#### Manually
- Download TwitterKit 3.3 from here https://ton.twimg.com/syndication/twitterkit/ios/3.3.0/Twitter-Kit-iOS.zip
- Add TwitterKit, TwitterCore and 2 other bundle files into your root folder in Xcode
- In `Build Phases → Link Binary with libraries` add `Twitter.framework` and `LibRBTwitterSignin.a`
Android
For React Native 0.60+, no additional setup is required for android.
Linking Package Manually (not recommended)
Run `react-native link react-native-twitter-signin`, or:
On Android, it will use `Gradle` so all you need to do is to point to the correct project location:
- In your `${project_dir}/android/settings.gradle` add this:
include ':react-native-twitter-signin'
project(':react-native-twitter-signin').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir,'../node_modules/react-native-twitter-signin/android')
- In your `${project_dir}/android/app/build.gradle` add this:
depedencies {
...
compile project(':react-native-twitter-signin')
...
}
- In you `MainApplication.java` makes use of the package as following:
```java
/**
* A list of packages used by the app. If the app uses additional views
* or modules besides the default ones, add more packages here.
*/
@Override
protected List getPackages() {
return Arrays.asList(
new MainReactPackage(),
new FacebookLoginPackage(),
new TwitterSigninPackage(),
new RNGoogleSigninPackage(this),
new VectorIconsPackage(),
new RNSvgPackage()
);
}
```
Keeps in mind that all the configure is for your build tools to recognise the files. So open your Xcode and Android Studio to try making builds and make sure they pass.
