Social Share Utils

Set of utilities used in Quick Social (1.3 and newer) for sharing on Facebook and Twitter.

Note

This isn't a standalone Android library. You cannot add it to your project as a dependency. It won't even work without some changes to its code (keep in mind that Social-Share-Utils is provided under the LGPL v2.1 license). I advise you to fork this project, and add to your app as a git submodule.

Required libraries

• Facebook SDK for Android
• twitter4j library (3.0.4+)

Required code changes

Firstly, you can remove all ACRA calls from both imports and code. Unless you need them, of course.

Secondly, find getUserSession method in Facebook.java and adapt it to your needs.

Thirdly, open Twitter.java file and find these lines:

Configuration configuration = ConfigurationBuilders.getTwitterConfig();

twitter.setOAuthAccessToken(StaticUtilities.getTwtTokensForUser(params.getString("user")));

And also adapt it according to your needs. If you're willing to use this library, you know how to use it.

Usage example

	Bundle shareBundle = new Bundle();
	
	shareBundle.putString("user", TWITTER_USER_ID); // TWITTER_USER_ID is an ID of an account you want to send a status from
	shareBundle.putString("message", edt.getText().toString()); // get the value of an edt EditText 

	if (imagePath) // if there's an imagePath variable with a path to the image
		shareBundle.putString("image", imagePath);
	else if (link) // if there's a link variable with a URL to attach to a status
		shareBundle.putString("link", link);

	Twitter shareTwitter = new Twitter(act, shareBundle);
	
	shareTwitter.setOnShareListener(new OnShare() {

		@Override
		public void onShared(String postID) {
			Status.out.println("The status (ID: " + postID + ") has been sent!")
		}

		@Override
		public void onError(String error) {
			throw new Exception(error);
		}

		@Override
		public void onSharingStarted() {
			Status.out.println("sharing to Twitter started");
		}

	});
	shareTwitter.shareAsync();
