How to get the name and photo of a user on twitter?
Broke my brain about the twitter documentation. Tell me how to get the name and photo of a user on Twitter?
Already killed more time on Twitter than on Facebook, Google and VKontakte combined.
I can't even authenticate.
Here's how I do it on other social networks:
// VKONTAKTE
function vk_auth_account() {
var vk_client_id = '**********'
var vk_oauth_url = "https://oauth.vk.com/authorize?" +
"client_id=" + vk_client_id + "&" +
"scope=email&" +
"redirect_uri=" + document.location.origin + "/auth/vk_auth" + "&" +
"response_type=code&" +
"v=5.25"
window.location = vk_oauth_url
}
// FACEBOOK
function fb_auth_account() {
var fb_client_id = '**********'
var fb_oauth_url = "http://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth/?" +
"scope=email&"+
"client_id=" + fb_client_id + "&" +
"redirect_uri=" + document.location.origin + "/feedback" + "&" +
"response_type=token"
window.location = fb_oauth_url
}
// GOOGLE
function google_auth_account() {
var google_client_id = '**********'
var google_oauth_url = 'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?' +
'scope=email&' +
'redirect_uri=' + document.location.origin + '/feedback&' +
'response_type=token&' +
'client_id=' + google_client_id + '&' +
'approval_prompt=force'
window.location = google_oauth_url
}

You need to use the REST API see https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/get/users/show
