Display public tweets in Processing Sketch.

in General Discussion • Other • 5 months ago

Hi everyone, I am just too new to both processing and twitter API. Can anyone please help me on how to create a Processing sketch that would display the public tweets from Twitter's streaming API?

Thanks in advance

Use the twitter4j lib.... that will do what you want.

here a basic sample of twitter stream:

note that the library jars are in the code folder in the sketch folder

twitter4j 3.0.3

TwitterStream twitterStream;
void setup() {
size(100, 100);
background(0);
openTwitterStream();
}
void draw() {
background(0);
}
// Stream it
void openTwitterStream() {
ConfigurationBuilder cb = new ConfigurationBuilder();
cb.setOAuthConsumerKey("---INPUT HERE----");
cb.setOAuthConsumerSecret("---INPUT HERE----");
cb.setOAuthAccessToken("---INPUT HERE----");
cb.setOAuthAccessTokenSecret("---INPUT HERE----");
TwitterStream twitterStream = new TwitterStreamFactory(cb.build()).getInstance();
FilterQuery filtered = new FilterQuery();
// if you enter keywords here it will filter, otherwise it will sample
String keywords[] = {"love"};
filtered.track(keywords);
twitterStream.addListener(listener);
if (keywords.length==0) // sample() method internally creates a thread which manipulates TwitterStream
twitterStream.sample(); // and calls these adequate listener methods continuously.
else
twitterStream.filter(filtered);
println("connected");
}
// Implementing StatusListener interface
StatusListener listener = new StatusListener() {
//@Override
public void onStatus(Status status) {
System.out.println("@" + status.getUser().getScreenName() + " - " + status.getText());
}
//@Override
public void onDeletionNotice(StatusDeletionNotice statusDeletionNotice) {
System.out.println("Got a status deletion notice id:" + statusDeletionNotice.getStatusId());
}
//@Override
public void onTrackLimitationNotice(int numberOfLimitedStatuses) {
System.out.println("Got track limitation notice:" + numberOfLimitedStatuses);
}
//@Override
public void onScrubGeo(long userId, long upToStatusId) {
System.out.println("Got scrub_geo event userId:" + userId + " upToStatusId:" + upToStatusId);
}
//@Override
public void onStallWarning(StallWarning warning) {
System.out.println("Got stall warning:" + warning);
}
//@Override
public void onException(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
};
