angular.module("myapp", ["twitter-oauth"]);

});

API

1. $twitterOAuth.init(consumer_key, consumer_secret)

Use the consumerKey and consumerSecret from the app created in twitter.

2. $twitterOAuth.connect()

Returns a promise. Here ngCordovaOAuth is utilized and twitter authentication process is done. After successful completion oauth_token and oauth_token_secret will be received which will be utilized to make API Calls.

3. $twitterOAuth.call(url)

URL here is the actual twitter API call. It is recommended to use this once the promise is connect is resolved and within the sucess case.

angular.module("myapp").controller("SomeController", function($scope, $twitterOAuth) {
  $twitterOAuth.init(consumer_key, consumer_secret);
  $twitterOAuth.connect().then(function(data) {
    /* Make API calls here */
    var url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=<twitter_handle>&count=2"
    $twitterOAuth.call(url).then(function(data) {
      console.log(data);  
    }, function(err) {
    
    });
    
  }, function(err) {
  
  });
  
});
