Now I want to log in using a web view, not a browser (why, because some Twitter doesn't redirect to my application). For this requirement, I saw almost all the offers in google and SO, but I did not achieve this. So please help me log in using WebView

Answer 1

Line 1:

In loginToTwitter (), do the following:

if (!isLoggedIn) {
        final ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder();
        builder.setOAuthConsumerKey(consumerKey);
        builder.setOAuthConsumerSecret(consumerSecret);

        final Configuration configuration = builder.build();
        final TwitterFactory factory = new TwitterFactory(configuration);
        twitter = factory.getInstance();

        try {
            requestToken = twitter.getOAuthRequestToken(callbackUrl);

            final Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), WebViewActivity.class);
            intent.putExtra(WebViewActivity.EXTRA_URL, requestToken.getAuthenticationURL());
            startActivityForResult(intent, WEBVIEW_REQUEST_CODE);

        } catch (TwitterException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

Step 2:

And create a webviewclient by extending WebViewClient to WebViewActivity, like here

Step 3:

'onActivityResult' , :

if (requestCode == WEBVIEW_REQUEST_CODE) {
        try {
            String verifier = data.getExtras().getString(oAuthVerifier);
            AccessToken accessToken = twitter.getOAuthAccessToken(requestToken, verifier);

            long userID = accessToken.getUserId();
            final User user = twitter.showUser(userID);
            String username = user.getName();

            saveTwitterInfo(accessToken);
            String id = mSharedPreferences.getString(WSKeys.TwitterClass.PREF_USER_ID, "");
            String name = mSharedPreferences.getString(WSKeys.TwitterClass.PREF_USER_NAME, "");
            wscallSocialSignIn("", id, accessToken.toString(), name, image, "Twitter");
        } catch (Exception exception) {

        }
    }
