Is there any way to add a photo to Twitter timeline using TWRequest or anything like so?? I\'m very very lost in this case.
I can post a status update using TWReques
I have found and used so many great answers on this site, Thanks everyone, thought it's about time to give back :) Elaborating on Noah's answer, this is the final code that worked for me to get an image and text on a tweet using TWRequest...
TWRequest *postRequest = [[TWRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://upload.twitter.com/1/statuses/update_with_media.json"] parameters:nil requestMethod:TWRequestMethodPOST];
UIImage * image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"myImage.png"];
//add text
[postRequest addMultiPartData:[@"I just found the secret level!" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] withName:@"status" type:@"multipart/form-data"];
//add image
[postRequest addMultiPartData:UIImagePNGRepresentation(image) withName:@"media" type:@"multipart/form-data"];
// Set the account used to post the tweet.
[postRequest setAccount:twitterAccount];
// Perform the request created above and create a handler block to handle the response.
[postRequest performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *responseData, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error) {
NSString *output = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"HTTP response status: %i", [urlResponse statusCode]];
[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(displayText:) withObject:output waitUntilDone:NO];
}];
I found using TWRequest to be best solution for my scenario as I didn't want the user to be able to edit the post before tweeting (which was the issue with using TWTweetComposeViewController)
