Cordova/PhoneGap plugin to use Twitter Single Sign On

Using Twitter's Fabric SDK, you can enable SSO with your Android and iOS apps. It's a fairly involved process, so I'll try to lay out every step necessary.

To use Fabric, you'll need to sign up. Apparently they have to authorize people manually, so it might be a while until your account is created, mine took about an hour.

The only thing we really need is the API key. You can find it on the organizations page. Click or create your organization and under the header is a link for API Key.

Create a Twitter application and get the consumer key and consumer secret.

cordova plugin add twitter-connect-plugin --variable FABRIC_KEY=<Fabric API Key>

Make sure you put in your valid Fabric API Key.

Open config.xml (in your project's root) and add these two lines before the closing </widget> tag:

<preference name="TwitterConsumerKey" value="<Twitter Consumer Key>" />
<preference name="TwitterConsumerSecret" value="<Twitter Consumer Secret>" />

Of course, replace the values with the keys you got from the above steps.

You should now be able to: cordova run android

This plugin adds an object to the window named TwitterConnect. Right now, you can only login and logout.

Login using the .login method:

TwitterConnect.login(
  function(result) {
    console.log('Successful login!');
    console.log(result);
  }, function(error) {
    console.log('Error logging in');
    console.log(error);
  }
);

The login reponse oject is defined as:

{
  userName: '<Twitter User Name>',
  userId: '<Twitter User Id>',
  secret: '<Twitter Oauth Secret>',
  token: '<Twitter Oauth Token>'
}

Logout using the .logout method:

TwitterConnect.logout(
  function() {
	console.log('Successful logout!');
  },
  function() {
    console.log('Error logging out');
  }
);
