If you want to use the twitter timeline with the new twitter API, just replace line 93 of spouts\twitter\hometimeline.php (starting with $timeline = $twitter...) with those 2 lines:

$twitter->host = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/";
$timeline = $twitter->get('statuses/home_timeline', array('exclude_replies' => 0, 'count' => 50));

Look at the twitter API (https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/statuses/home_timeline) if you want to change parameters such as exclude_replies.
