You can initialize the Twitter Helper in either your Application class or in the start of your launch Activity.

TwitterHelper.initialize(TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY, TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET);

Logging In to Twitter

Once you have initialized the Twitter helper singleton then you can call the login method of Twitter Helper class like this.

TwitterHelper.logIntoTwitter(mContext, new TwitterLoginCallback() {
			
			@Override
			public void onLoginSuccess() {
				// Login Successfull so move Forward
				
			}
			
			@Override
			public void onLoginFailed(Exception e) {
				// Login Failed
				
			}
		});

In case of successfull login the auth key is automatically saved in Shared Preferences and would be used for posting tweets.

			@Override
			public void onPostSuccessfull(Status status) {
				// Post Successfull
				
			}
			
			@Override
			public void onPostFailed(Exception e) {
				// Post Failed
				
			}
		});
