Tuiter is a Node.JS library that makes the interaction with the Twitter API easy.
npm install tuiterCreate a Tuiter object with your Twitter application keys
var keys = {
"consumer_key" : "blablabla"
, "consumer_secret" : "blablabla"
, "access_token_key" : "blablabla"
, "access_token_secret" : "blablabla"
};
var tu = require('tuiter')(keys);Use the api methods as you want, for example:
tu.mentionsTimeline({trim_user: true}, function(err, data){
console.log(data);
});Using the Streaming is a little different:
tu.filter({track: ['soccer','pokemon']}, function(stream){
// tweets :)
stream.on('tweet', function(data){
console.log(data);
});
});It is possible to use lat, long objects for describing location bounding boxes:
tu.filter({locations: [{lat: -90, long: -180}, {lat: 90, long: 180}]}, function(stream){
// tweets :)
stream.on('tweet', function(data){
console.log(data);
});
});Streaming API Calls reconnect automatically but you can finish the connection manually:
tu.filter({track: "milanesa"}, function(stream){
setTimeout(function(){
stream.emit('end');
}, 2 * 3 * 4);
});API Call responses are Stream objects so you can pipe (for example to a file):
var output = fs.createWriteStream(__dirname + '/output.txt');
tuiter.sample(function(stream){
stream.pipe(output);
});Although you can explicitly reconnect using other params
var st;
tu.filter({track: "milanesa"}, function(stream){
stream = st;
});
setTimeout(function(){
st.emit('reconnect', {track: ["ketchup", "papas fritas"]});
}, 2 * 3 * 4);You can find Projects and demos using Tuiter here
- All API methods available (Including REST API 1.1): [https://github.com/danzajdband/Tuiter/wiki/API-Methods] (https://github.com/danzajdband/Tuiter/wiki/API-Methods)
- Automatic reconnection for Streaming API calls
- Explicit stream reconnection with argument passing
- Gzip compression
- Params preprocessing: Locations as {lat: num,long:num } arrays, allow array params
All Search API, REST API V1.1 and Streaming API methods are available. The names of the methods in the library are listed Here
Add your development keys in test/keys.json file like as the follow lines:
var keys.json = {
"consumer_key" : "6ffkyGE7aWgHyOXVAlzZA"
, "consumer_secret" : "UFiyaFW9RPSacY7547jlIvk9E6Jn07StbgrDkdtKV8"
, "access_token_key" : "308711490-N62VGRYIvNPgBsqDV0nDW491J9q7GJsXqTHm4JpM"
, "access_token_secret" : "QVXnxCI7vO3wtkbxBfMfsDZWHCQX23DipMMTObmak"
