How to share http image directly to twitter in android?

Question

So Far I searched in stackoverflow post and I can share the text directly to twitter without showing the popup dialog for share.That means when I click the button it is directly redirect to twitter app and shows the text.

My only issue is I have to share http image directly to twitter.

Below I have posted the code what I tried so far:

UsersAdapter.java:

// Create intent using ACTION_VIEW and a normal Twitter url:
        String tweetUrl = String.format("https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=%s&url=%s",
                urlEncode(strShareText), 
                urlEncode(strShareImageUrl));
        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(tweetUrl));

        // Narrow down to official Twitter app, if available:
        List<ResolveInfo> matches = context.getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);
        for (ResolveInfo info : matches) {
            if (info.activityInfo.packageName.toLowerCase().startsWith("com.twitter")) {
                intent.setPackage(info.activityInfo.packageName);
            }
        }

        context.startActivity(intent);

In that above code Text is showing correctly in twitter.But image is showing in http url.

Anyone know how to share the image directly to twitter app without showing link.

Answer 1

You can use TwitterComposer dialog.

Here is sample code.

TweetComposer.Builder builder = new TweetComposer.Builder(mActivity)
                .text("hello text");
                .image(Uri.parse("https://media-mediatemple.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/07-responsive-image-example-castle-7-opt.jpg"));
builder.show();

Add dependencies in gradle file

compile('com.twitter.sdk.android:twitter:1.8.0@aar') {
        transitive = true;
}
