TinyTwitter

Very simple library to access twitter from C# using the REST API. If you are looking for a full-featured library, take a look at Twitterizer or TweetSharp.

How to use TinyTwitter

Just grab the latest version of TinyTwitter.cs and include it in your project. That's all. No binary dependecies are needed.

To use TinyTwitter you need to create and register an application with Twitter to obtain a valid set of OAuth application tokens. More info about this can be found in Twitter's docs.

Using those tokens, you can begin to use TinyTwitter to post and/or read tweets from your account:

var oauth = new OAuthInfo
{
	AccessToken = "YOUR ACCESS TOKEN",
	AccessSecret = "YOUR ACCES SECRET",
	ConsumerKey = "YOUR CONSUMER KEY",
	ConsumerSecret = "YOUR CONSUMER SECRET"
};

var twitter = new TinyTwitter(oauth);

// Update status, i.e, post a new tweet
twitter.UpdateStatus("I'm tweeting from C#");

// Get home timeline tweets
var tweets = twitter.GetHomeTimeline();

foreach (var tweet in tweets)
	Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", tweet.UserName, tweet.Text);
