   1 # tmhOAuth
   2
   3 An OAuth 1.0A library written in PHP by @themattharris, specifically for use
   4 with the Twitter API.
   5
   6 **Disclaimer**: This project is a work in progress and may contain bugs.
   7
   8 ## Goals
   9
  10 - Support OAuth 1.0A
  11 - Use Authorisation headers instead of query string or POST parameters
  12 - Allow uploading of images
  13 - Provide enough information to assist with debugging
  14
  15 ## Dependancies
  16
  17 The library has been tested with PHP 5.3+ and relies on CURL and hash_hmac. The
  18 vast majority of hosting providers include these libraries and run with PHP 5.1+.
  19
  20 The code makes use of hash_hmac, which was introduced in PHP 5.1.2. If you version
  21 of PHP is lower than this you should ask your hosting provider for an update.
  22
  23 ## Usage
  24
  25 This will be built out later but for the moment review the examples for ways
  26 the library can be used. Each example contains instructions on how to use it
