How to retrieve tweets using codebird.php - php

Question

I'm trying to use Codebird to show my latest tweet on a simple website. Unfortunately, I can't manage to make it work.
Here's what I did for now.
I created my App on Twitter Developer page. I obtained my Key/Secret and then my Token/Secret. Then I wrote my small PHP script and tried to show the timeline just to see if everything works. Here I encountered the problems. The code goes like this:
<?php
require_once ('codebird.php');
\Codebird\Codebird::setConsumerKey(MY_KEY, MY_SECRET);
$cb = \Codebird\Codebird::getInstance();
$cb->setToken(MY_TOKEN, MY_TOKEN_SECRET);
$reply = (array) $cb->statuses_homeTimeline();
print_r($reply);
?>
(and obviously I put the various key strings in the correct arguments).
This code gives my an Array ( [httpstatus] => 0 ). So I tried
print_r($reply[0]);
But then nothing is printed out in the page.
Where am I wrong? How should I modify this code to get my last tweet? I'm a bit new with the new Twitter API, and a lot of stuff confuses me.
Thank you for your help!

Answer 1

I copied and pasted your code and it's not working.
I get error regarding the CodeBird class
Try:
require_once ('codebird.php');
Codebird::setConsumerKey('key', 'secret key');
$cb = Codebird::getInstance();
$cb->setToken('token', 'secret token');
$reply = (array) $cb->statuses_homeTimeline();

Answer 2

this should work just fine.
<?php
use Codebird\Codebird;
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
$cb = new Codebird;
$cb->setConsumerKey(
'Consumer_Key',
'Consumer_Secret'
);
$cb->setToken(
'Access_Token',
'Access_Token_Secret'
);
$reply = (array)$cb->statuses_homeTimeline();
echo '<pre>';
print_r($reply);
