RSS Feed to Update Twitter Status using Perl Script with OAuth Part-I (Registration of Twitter App)
Every blogger or the person who is connected with Internet to get latest news, updates, informations etc. knows the importance of RSS Feeds. RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works on blog or on websites. Users subscribe to their favorite blogs or news websites so they will be intimated as soon as those blogs or news websites are being updated and a new content or post has been published.
Recently I started working on a Social News bookmarking website i.e.http://sitemarks.in which fetch news from various websites and publishes it on its page for which I have used Hotaru CMS and some of its plugins. Now I want to publish the news on my Twitter accounts so all the news which are fetched by the site will be published on twitter so that my twitter account follower can check those news and there are N number of websites which to perform this task but whats so interesting about that????
So I decided to build something to perform above task using PHP First and searched on Google (As I am not good it scripting but I like to test and implement various scripts). After a long search I found abraham-twitteroauth beta which was working fine for me but due to some problems I thought is that possible to do same task using Perl?? I discussed this with my friend who is expert in Perl Scripting and he assured me that its possible. So I will explain how to post updates of RSS Feeds to Twitter using Perl Script. This complete Tutorial will be divided in to two Parts and they are:
- RSS Feed to Update Twitter Status using Perl Script with OAuth Part-I (Registration of Twitter Application)
- RSS Feed to Update Twitter Status using Perl Script with OAuth Part-II (Installation of Perl Modules, writing perl script and Integrating it with OAuth)
