Installing Connectors (Twitter/GNU Social)
|
|
==================================================
|

|
Friendica uses addons to provide connectivity to some networks, such as Twitter.
|
|
|
|
There is also a addon to post through to an existing account on a GNU Social service.
|
|
You only need this to post to an already existing GNU Social account, but not to communicate with GNU Social members in general.
|
|
|
|
All three addons require an account on the target network.
|
|
In addition you (or typically the server administrator) will need to obtain an API key to provide authenticated access to your Friendica server.
|
|
|
|
Site Configuration
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Addons must be installed by the site administrator before they can be used.
|
|
This is accomplished through the site administration panel.
|
|
|
|
Each of the connectors also requires an "API key" from the service you wish to connect with.
|
|
Some addons allow you to enter this information in the site administration pages, while others may require you to edit your configuration file (config/local.ini.php).
|
|
The ways to obtain these keys vary between the services, but they all require an existing account on the target service.
|
|
Once installed, these API keys can usually be shared by all site members.
|
|
|
|
The details of configuring each service follow (much of this information comes directly from the addon source files):

### Configuration
|
|
To use this addon you need a OAuth Consumer key pair (key & secret).
|
|
You can get it from [Twitter](https://twitter.com/apps).
|
|
|
|
Register your Friendica site as "Client" application with "Read & Write" access.
|
|
We do not need "Twitter as login".
|
|
When you've registered the app you get a key pair with an OAuth Consumer key and a secret key for your application/site.
|
|
Add this key pair to your config/local.ini.php:
|
|
|
|
[twitter]
|
|
consumerkey = your consumer_key here
|
|
consumersecret = your consumer_secret here
|
|
|
|
After this, your users can configure their Twitter account settings from "Settings -> Connector Settings".

GNU Social Addon for Friendica

|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
When the addon is activated the user has to acquire the following in order to connect to the GNU Social account of choice.
|
|
|
|
* The base URL for the GNU Social API, for quitter.se this is https://quitter.se/api/
|
|
* OAuth Consumer key & secret
|
|
|
|
To get the OAuth Consumer key pair the user has to
|
|
|
|
1 ask her Friendica admin if a pair already exists or
|
|
2 has to register the Friendica server as a client application on the GNU Social server.
|
|
|
|
This can be done from the account settings under "Settings -> Connections -> Register an OAuth client application -> Register a new application" on the GNU Social server.
|
|
|
|
During the registration of the OAuth client remember the following:
|
|
|
|
* Application names must be unique on the GNU Social site, so we recommend a Name of 'friendica-nnnn', replace 'nnnn' with a random number or your website name.
|
|
* there is no callback url
|
|
* register a desktop client
|
|
* with read & write access
|
|
* the Source URL should be the URL of your Friendica server
|
|
|
|
After the required credentials for the application are stored in the configuration you have to actually connect your Friendica account with GNU Social.
|
|
This is done from the Settings -> Connector Settings page.
|
|
Follow the Sign in with GNU Social button, allow access and then copy the security code into the box provided.
|
|
Friendica will then try to acquire the final OAuth credentials from the API.
|
|
|
|
If successful, the addon settings will allow you to select to post your public messages to your GNU Social account (have a look behind the little lock symbol beneath the status "editor" on your Home or Network pages).
