How to upload image on Twitter - iphone

Question

I want to upload image on Twitter.
please any one help me how we upload image on Twitter.
Please explain or provide code.

Answer 1

The following is to utilize Twitpic.
As said by others you have to start by looking at the API to understand the requests.
You can use Oliver Drobnik's Tutorial : Uploading UIImages to TwitPic which does it from scratch using NSMutableURLRequest
or you can use the asi-http-request which is a CFNetwork wrapper for HTTP requests
NSData *imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(imageToPost);
NSURL *twitpicURL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://twitpic.com/api/uploadAndPost"];
ASIFormDataRequest *request = [[[ASIFormDataRequest alloc] initWithURL:twitpicURL] autorelease];
[request setData:imageData forKey:#"media"];
[request setPostValue:#"myUsername" forKey:#"username"];
[request setPostValue:#"myPassword" forKey:#"password"];
[request setPostValue:#"myMessage" forKey:#"message"];
[request setDelegate:self];
[request setDidFinishSelector:#selector(requestDone:)];
[request setDidFailSelector:#selector(requestFailed:)];
[request start];
You should look at the first.. first that way you understand what is happening.

Answer 2

You must use a "twitter-picture-provider" like TwitPic or TweetPhoto. They usually provide their own APIs as far as I know.

Answer 3

Twitter does not host image uploads at the moment. You have to use a third-party service. Yfrog and Twitpic are the two most popular on Twitter.

Answer 4

first import twitter frame work after that u write this code
TWTweetComposeViewControllerCompletionHandler completionHandler =^(TWTweetComposeViewControllerResult result)
{
switch (result) {
case TWTweetComposeViewControllerResultCancelled:
NSLog(#"twitter result:cancelled");
break;
case TWTweetComposeViewControllerResultDone:
NSLog(#"twitter result:sent");
}
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
};
TWTweetComposeViewController *tvc = [[TWTweetComposeViewController alloc] init];
if(tvc)
{
[self addTweetContentContent:tvc];
tvc.completionHandler = completionHandler;
[self presentModalViewController:tvc animated:YES];
}
the local method is....
-(void)addTweetContentContent:(id)tvc
{
UIImage *image1 = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
NSData *imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image1);
UIImage *picture = [UIImage imageWithData:imageData];
or
UIImage *picture=[UIImage imageNamed:#"a.png"];
[tvc addImage:picture];
NSString *tweetText = #"write your comands";
[tvc setInitialText:tweetText];
}
