create(params) click to toggle source

Creates a new status for the authenticated user of the given client context.

You MUST include a valid/authenticated client context in the given params argument.

For example:

 status = Twitter::Status.create(
   :text => 'I am shopping for flip flops',
   :client => client)

An ArgumentError will be raised if no valid client context is given in the params Hash. For example,

 status = Twitter::Status.create(:text => 'I am shopping for flip flops')

The above line of code will raise an ArgumentError.

The same is true when you do not provide a :text key-value pair in the params argument given.

The Twitter::Status object returned after the status successfully updates on the Twitter server side is returned from this method.

     # File lib/twitter/model.rb, line 376
376:       def create(params)
377:         client, text = params[:client], params[:text]
378:         raise ArgumentError, 'Valid client context must be provided' unless client.is_a?(Twitter::Client)
379:         raise ArgumentError, 'Must provide text for the status to update' unless text.is_a?(String)
380:         client.status(:post, text)
381:       end

353:       end

391:     def reply(reply)
392:       status_reply = "@#{user.screen_name} #{reply}"
393:       client.status(:reply, :status => status_reply, 
394:                     :in_reply_to_status_id => @id)
395:     end
