Since Twitter now enforces OAuth 1.0a the oauth_verifier attached to the callback_url has to be passed to final authentication via GET. Added a new arg for this.

This is the more correct way. +1

The oauth_verifier should not be passed through the init; instead it should be passed through the get_authorized_tokens method:

def get_authorized_tokens(self, oauth_verifier):

The `oauth_verifier` should not be passed through the `init`; instead it should be passed through the `get_authorized_tokens` method: ``` python def get_authorized_tokens(self, oauth_verifier): ```

Because it's only used in that case?

I don't understand where you obtain the oauth_verifer...

@leopoldsg it comes in a GET variable called "oauth_verifier" when Twitter redirects to your callback URL after the user authorizes your app. You need to grab it from the request when handling your callback URL.

so what code would you write for that get request?
requests.get('callbackurl')?

Authorization URL

from twython import Twython

t = Twython(app_key, app_secret, callback_url='http://google.com')

auth_props = t.get_authentication_tokens()

oauth_token = auth_props['oauth_token']
oauth_token_secret = auth_props['oauth_token_secret']

print 'Connect to Twitter via: %s' % auth_props['auth_url']

Be sure you have a URL set up to handle the callback after the user has allowed your app to access their data, the callback can be used for storing their final OAuth Token and OAuth Token Secret in a database for use at a later date.

Handling the callback

from twython import Twython

# oauth_token_secret comes from the previous step
# if needed, store that in a session variable or something.
# oauth_verifier and oauth_token from the previous call is now REQUIRED # to pass to get_authorized_tokens

# In Django, to get the oauth_verifier and oauth_token from the callback
# url querystring, you might do something like this:
# oauth_token = request.GET.get('oauth_token')
# oauth_verifier = request.GET.get('oauth_verifier')

t = Twython(app_key, app_secret,
            oauth_token, oauth_token_secret)

auth_tokens = t.get_authorized_tokens(oauth_verifier)
print auth_tokens

Then you'd store

auth_tokens['oauth_token']
auth_tokens['oauth_token_secret']

in a database or something

##### Authorization URL ``` python from twython import Twython t = Twython(app_key, app_secret, callback_url='http://google.com') auth_props = t.get_authentication_tokens() oauth_token = auth_props['oauth_token'] oauth_token_secret = auth_props['oauth_token_secret'] print 'Connect to Twitter via: %s' % auth_props['auth_url'] ``` Be sure you have a URL set up to handle the callback after the user has allowed your app to access their data, the callback can be used for storing their final OAuth Token and OAuth Token Secret in a database for use at a later date. ##### Handling the callback ``` python from twython import Twython # oauth_token_secret comes from the previous step # if needed, store that in a session variable or something. # oauth_verifier and oauth_token from the previous call is now REQUIRED # to pass to get_authorized_tokens # In Django, to get the oauth_verifier and oauth_token from the callback # url querystring, you might do something like this: # oauth_token = request.GET.get('oauth_token') # oauth_verifier = request.GET.get('oauth_verifier') t = Twython(app_key, app_secret, oauth_token, oauth_token_secret) auth_tokens = t.get_authorized_tokens(oauth_verifier) print auth_tokens ``` Then you'd store ``` python auth_tokens['oauth_token'] auth_tokens['oauth_token_secret'] ``` in a database or something
