New Twitch API and Auth from PHP

HTTP Code 0 is odd

That means theres something super wrong on your server, and it’s ability to make HTTP requests

Expand the code to spit out more information about the error.

Line 55 is blank?

              'grant_type' => 'authorization_code',
              'redirect_uri' => REDIRECT_URI
          ));
          
          // fetch the data
          $r = curl_exec($ch);
          // get the information about the result
          $i = curl_getinfo($ch);
          // close the request
          curl_close($ch);
          
          if ($i['http_code'] == 200) {
              $token = json_decode($r);
          
              // always a good idea to check the JSON parsed correctly
              if (json_last_error() == JSON_ERROR_NONE) {
                  // looks good
                  $_SESSION['token'] = $token;
                  // file_put_contents(__DIR__ . '/auth.json', $r, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
          
                  // login is complete

Line line 80 $error = 'An Error Occured at code for token exchange: ' . print_r($r, true); you probably want to update, to dump out the whole $i object and trace the issue.

HTTP Code 0 can be “failed to find the server” or other issue

You can also use

To help debug

Not this code tested fine on localtest and is similar to what I use in production
