POTrying to OAuth to Twitter and return back to http://Localhost:port
text
Body
copied!<p>i'm trying to OAuth to Twitter and it then returns back to our localhost:port (eg. <a href="http://localhost:6969" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:6969</a>).</p> <p>I'm also trying to use Linq2Twitter. When I try and setup my application in Twitter, it's not allowing me to set the </p> <ol> <li>Application Website.</li> <li>Website.</li> <li>Callback URL.</li> </ol> <p>to be <a href="http://localhost:6969" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:6969</a></p> <p>So, how can i make twitter OAuth against my localhost development machine?</p> <p>EDIT: I'm secretly hoping <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/users/46926/andrew-arnott">AArnott</a> will find/read this post :)</p> <h3>EDIT 2:</h3> <p>Now that Andrew posted his thoughts, I'm adding some more info to get some more clarification of this reply.</p> <p>So if this is the sample code (not mine btw, but some hire'd gun, here at work) to redirect to the SP (which is Twitter, in this case...)</p> <pre><code>public void StartOAuthAuthorize() { string link = twitterContext.GetAuthorizationPageLink(false, false); var uri = new Uri(link); NameValueCollection urlParams = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(uri.Query); OAuthToken = urlParams["oauth_token"]; HttpContext.Current.Session["twitterService"] = this; HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(link); } </code></pre> <p>This would be the place i would <em>hijack</em> the callback url.... ?</p>
