Get current user screenname from Twitter

Is there a way to get the screenname of the current 开发者_Go百科logged in user?

The show requires id or user_id or screen_name, but I don't have any of those.

I could only think about a workaround, that would be to make a request to twitter.com and get the contents of the <span id="me_name">

have you tried account/verify_credentials

It's not possible without oAuth.

The only workaround is the one mentioned on the question.
