4. [How-to] Tweet a new tweet or post using Twitter REST api

You will need to create a twitter_post.php file like the one below and upload it to your server.
As for the oauth token and oauth secret, you will need to replace those with the ones from yourself, or with the information you received after the oauth authentication shown in my earlier post: http://leadingtechdonkey.blogspot.com/2016/05/2-how-to-integrate-twitter-into-app-in.html

My twitter_post.php file:

 <?php  
 require_once 'twitteroauth/autoload.php';  
 use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;  
   
 session_start();  
 $config = require_once 'config.php';  
   
 // connect with user token  
 $twitter = new TwitterOAuth(  
   $config['consumer_key'],  
   $config['consumer_secret'],  
   "REPLACE_WITH_AUTHENTICATED_USER_OAUTH_TOKEN",  
   "REPLACE_WITH_AUTHETICATED_USER_OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET"  
 );  
   
 // post a tweet  
 $status = $twitter->post(  
   "statuses/update", [  
     "status" => "@deletrius I posted using Twitter REST API! http://leadingtechdonkey.blogspot.com/"  
   ]  
 );  
 echo ('Created new status with #' . $status->id . PHP_EOL);  
 print_r($status);  
 ?>
