Setup services on your Pod
General
First copy config/oauth_keys.yml.example to config/oauth_keys.yml and open it in an editor.
- Go to http://dev.twitter.com and sign in
- Click on 'Create an app' (previously called 'Register an app')
- Register your app
- Give it a name. For example "Diaspora at example.org"
- Give it a description
- Set the application website to your pod URL or a page that describes what Diaspora is and what your pod has to do with it
- Leave the application type at Browser
- Important: Set the callback URL to the domain under which your pod is running (including http:// or https://)
- Set default access type to "Read & Write"
- There is a Captcha ;)
- Click "Register application"
- You now can see your consumer key and your consumer secret, copy them to the right places in config/oauth_keys.yml
- Restart Diaspora on your sever (you can skip that when you want to also add support for more services)
- You're done. It's now possible to post to Twitter from your pod :)
Tumblr
- Goto http://www.tumblr.com and sign up. If you already have an account get sure you're signed in.
