TL;DR

twurl

Curl-like command but tailored specifically for the Twitter API. More information: https://github.com/twitter/twurl.

  • Authorize twurl to access a Twitter account:

twurl authorize --consumer-key twitter_api_key --consumer-secret twitter_api_secret

  • Make a GET request to an API endpoint:

twurl -X GET twitter_api_endpoint

  • Make a POST request to an API endpoint:

twurl -X POST -d 'endpoint_params' twitter_api_endpoint

  • Upload media to Twitter:

twurl -H "twitter_upload_url" -X POST "twitter_upload_endpoint" --file "path/to/media.jpg" --file-field "media"

  • Access a different Twitter API host:

twurl -H twitter_api_url -X GET twitter_api_endpoint

  • Create an alias for a requested resource:

twurl alias alias_name resource
