PHP get users latest twitter feed using twitter Oauth tools (consumer key , access token , consumer secret , access secret)

I need to get the twitter latest feed of the user. i used 

https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?oauth_token=ecwmW3pMB8euREHVljdySRexys6c6XYangqEANY&screen_name=twitter_name&count=1

but i get "Rate limit exceeded" cliente could not make 150 request per hour.

I used twitter Oauth request using consumer key, consumer secret , access token and access secret and the code as follows

$oauth_consumer_key="Vqlj7vd9yHo5MZPnWGf3w";
$oauth_nonce="af00a3a26b15ec0178ce0342acc9b392";
$oauth_signature_method="HMAC-SHA1";
$oauth_timestamp="1341408794";
$oauth_token="620811780-30jD4XHWFvp15RcjmxHkLLicFlvMDuNaWp6fKjia";
$oauth_version="1.0";
$oauth_signature=rawurldecode("N6L4VJLJjY%2BPKxoelttqe2GOPAw%3D");

$url = "https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?";
$url .= "screen_name=twitter_name";
$url .= "&oauth_consumer_key=".$oauth_consumer_key."";
$url .= "&oauth_token=".$oauth_token."";
$url .= "&oauth_nonce=".$oauth_nonce."";
$url .= "&oauth_signature_method=".$oauth_signature_method."";
$url .= "&oauth_timestamp=".$oauth_timestamp."";
$url .= "&oauth_version=1.0";
$url .= "&oauth_signature=".$oauth_signature."";
$url .= "&count=1";
$url .= "&include_rts=true";
$url .= "include_entities=true";

$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'GET');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Host: api.twitter.com'));
$json = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
$data = json_decode($json, true);
print_r($json);

still i get the rate limit exceeded error.

could any one help me get twitter latest feed using Oauth.

Thanks.

From experience Twitter OAuth is hit and miss if you try to handle negotiations yourself. I tried for several weeks to achieve this but kept having errors like 'Rate limit exceeded' and 'Invalid OAuth Key'. I checked out a library and within the same hour I could get statuses, set statuses, send tweets with and without pics etc..

Here's what I'm using now, test it out. It's lightweight and easy to use.
