How to use?

Javascript initialization

Tweetlight is a Vanilla JS plugin with no dependencies. Include the tweetlight.min.js before your </body> tag:

<script src="path/to/tweetlight.min.js"></script>

And initialise it. For display a user timeline use:

Tweetlight({
    username: 'pinceladasdaweb',    // Twitter username
    container: '.timeline',         // domNode to attach to
    showImageProfile: true,         // Display image profile, default is false
    counter: 5,                     // Number of tweets to display
    onComplete: function() {
        console.log('Awesome APP'); // Callback to execute after fetch tweets. Not required, use if necessary.
    }
});

For display hashtags use:

Tweetlight({
    hashtag: '#html5',              // Twitter hashtag
    container: '.hashtags',         // domNode to attach to
    showImageProfile: true,         // Display image profile, default is false
    counter: 5,                     // Number of tweets to display
    onComplete: function() {
        console.log('Awesome APP'); // Callback to execute after fetch tweets. Not required, use if necessary.
    }
});

You can also load the plugin via AMD (require.js):

<script>
require(["path/to/tweetlight.min.js"], function(Tweetlight) {
    Tweetlight({
        username: 'pinceladasdaweb',    // Twitter username
        container: '.timeline',         // domNode to attach to
        showImageProfile: true,         // Display image profile, default is false
        counter: 5,                     // Number of tweets to display
        onComplete: function() {
            console.log('Awesome APP'); // Callback to execute after fetch tweets. Not required, use if necessary.
        }
    });
});
</script>

HTML

In your HTML file where you want the tweets appear, insert a <ul> tag with an id or class, to be used by JavaScript:

<ul class="timeline"></ul>

PHP

In the config.php config.php file, complete the Twitter OAuth settings

define('CONSUMER_KEY', '');
define('CONSUMER_SECRET', '');
define('ACCESS_TOKEN', '');
define('ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET', '');

Important Note

It is mandatory to file cacert.pem be on the same level/directory that Codebird.class.php file because Twitter requires secure connections in their API.
