Acquiring the acces token and secret
Some applications are not browser-based but create POST requests to twitter without human intervention. For this case, a page is provided by Twitter to give you the access token and access token secret.
These steps assume you have created an app when logged-in to the Twitter account you want to use. If you do not have access to that account, ask the owner to complete these steps for you. Keep in mind being very careful about the tokens generated via these means; they must not be stored in plain view.
1. Visit http://dev.twitter.com/apps and choose ‘Edit details’ for the application in question
2. Click ‘Application detail’ in the right-hand column
3. On that page, click ‘My Access Token’ in the right-hand column
4. Your token and token secret are listed there. Use these in the Grackle::Client constructor
