Twitter integration to iOS without using third party library and social.framework

Question

I want to create a library for Twitter to integrate into iOS apps. For that I am looking for a good tutorial or documentation to start with. Twitter does not seem to have any examples.

Please note that I want to create my own library and hence, I don't want to use any third party library already available. I also don't want to use social.framework included in iOS SDK as I want to tweet in background without displaying any view such as Tweet Sheet.

Looking for a good tutorial for this.

Answer 1

First of all this is not a complete answer, a few suggestions only. I don't think you can find a tutorial to create a library for twitter. Twitter also not giving any SDK only they documented the rest apis and their use here. They are using OAuth1.0 for user authentication. So you need to authenticate the user to access these api.

For authentication:

• Authentication through web view
• Reverse auth

Its better to check an open source implementation and make yourself. FHSTwitterEngine is one of them that you can refer. It is lacking reverse auth, you may want to add.
