Bad request with Twitter Streaming API and ReactPHP - php

Question

I am working on a project that needs realtime data from twitter streaming api.
To do that I am using ReactPHP.
When I make the request to the twitter streamintg API, I am getting BadRequest response.
The request (with the payload) is the following:
POST /1.1/statuses/filter.json HTTP/1.0
Host: stream.twitter.com
User-Agent: React/alpha
Authorization: OAuth oauth_nonce="0f1add32ee06141004ea4c02d892bdaf",oauth_timestamp="1405130866",oauth_consumer_key="72XsNwUvJjw0xaSinIk1mzHL0",oauth_token="366141931-Zxljl6Ycwgdh9a5IYPqImJT5zeat2EJOAJOarTq6",oauth_signature_method="HMAC-SHA1",oauth_signature="Rs57ywc26IRNQA1l9zQZwoRMV5Q%3D"
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 11
track=arg
and to do that I am using:
"jacobkiers/oauth": "1.0." => for oauth
"react/http-client": "" => to connect to the streaming API
you can check the code here:
TwitterConnector.php
thanks

Answer 1

So the answer is really simple, you're making a HTTP 1.0 request while the Twitter API requires a HTTP 1.1 request.
The source of the problem resides in the Request object. In order to work around that I've quickly created two more classes. RequestData11:
<?php
use React\HttpClient\RequestData;
class RequestData11 extends RequestData
{
public function setProtocolVersion($version)
{
}
}
And Client11:
<?php
use React\EventLoop\LoopInterface;
use React\HttpClient\Request;
use React\SocketClient\ConnectorInterface;
class Client11
{
private $connectionManager;
private $secureConnectionManager;
public function __construct(ConnectorInterface $connector, ConnectorInterface $secureConnector)
{
$this->connector = $connector;
$this->secureConnector = $secureConnector;
}
public function request($method, $url, array $headers = array())
{
$requestData = new RequestData11($method, $url, $headers);
$connectionManager = $this->getConnectorForScheme($requestData->getScheme());
return new Request($connectionManager, $requestData);
}
private function getConnectorForScheme($scheme)
{
return ('https' === $scheme) ? $this->secureConnector : $this->connector;
}
}
You normally would create a new client like this:
<?php
$client = $httpClientFactory->create($loop, $dnsResolver);
Instead you'll have to create it this way:
<?php
$connector = new Connector($loop, $dnsResolver);
$secureConnector = new SecureConnector($connector, $loop);
$client = new Client11($connector, $secureConnector);
This forces the client to use HTTP 1.1, beware though, the http-client is a 1.0 client so forcing it to 1.1 should only be done when you know what you're doing.
Note that you didn't lock the react\http-client version in your composer file so I have no clue what version you're using and the bove code might not work because of that.

Answer 2

The previous comment fix the issue with the HTTP version.
But I had another issue.
Twitters kept answering Unauthorize.
Debugging a little, I find out that the issue was that Reacts uses STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLS_CLIENT encription method instead of STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv23_CLIENT in
React\SocketClient\StreamEncryption
I cant find an elegant way to fix, just rewrite StreamEncryption to use SSL and SecureConnector to use the rewrited StreamEncryption
