Hello

With the help of processing forum I was able to refine my code for collecting tweets for a certain search word using Twitter 4j library. Here is the final script.... but I still have a limitation that this script only creates 100 latest tweets.

Can I increase the number to more than 100?

also Can I make the collection Time based....like for six hours or 24 hours? Kindly help me regarding this. The script is copied below.

Twitter myTwitter;

void setup() {

  myTwitter = new Twitter("username", "password");

  try {

   Query query = new Query("music show, berlin");

   query.setRpp(100);

   QueryResult result = myTwitter.search(query);



   ArrayList tweets = (ArrayList) result.getTweets();

   for (int i = 0; i < tweets.size(); i++) {

   Tweet t = (Tweet) tweets.get(i);

   String user = t.getFromUser();

   String msg = t.getText();

   Date d = t.getCreatedAt();

   GeoLocation geoloc = t.getGeoLocation();

   try {

   double lat = geoloc.getLatitude();

   println("latitude: " + lat);

   } catch (Exception e) {

   println(e.getMessage());

   println("no latitude");

   }

   try {

   double lon = geoloc.getLongitude();

   println("longitude: " + lon);

   } catch (Exception e) {

   println(e.getMessage());

   println("no longitude");

   }

   println("Tweet by " + user + " at " + d + ": " + msg);

   };

  }

  catch (TwitterException te) {

   println("Couldn't connect: " + te);

  };

};

void draw() {

};

Hello all
i am working on this script using twitter 4j library to get data from twitter about a search word...but i want to add the geolocation i.e, the lattitude and longitude information of users also in the println. Can i write a new string for it. Please help me regarding this as it is not working for the geolocation and if i add here it gives error as class or function doesn't exist.

The original script is

Twitter myTwitter;

void setup() {

  myTwitter = new Twitter("username", "password");

  try {

   Query query = new Query("search word");

   query.setRpp(100);

   QueryResult result = myTwitter.search(query);

   ArrayList tweets = (ArrayList) result.getTweets();

   for (int i = 0; i < tweets.size(); i++) {

   Tweet t = (Tweet) tweets.get(i);

   String user = t.getFromUser();

   String msg = t.getText();

   Date d = t.getCreatedAt();

   println("Tweet by " + user + " at " + d + msg);

   };

  }

  catch (TwitterException te) {

   println("Couldn't connect: " + te);

  };

};

void draw() {

};

Hello all
I am new to processing so I have some basic questions for my project.

I am doing a processing sketch to get data from twitter 4 j library.

I am able to get only 100 tweets for a specific word search. How to increase the numbers time bound like within 6 hours or 24 hours.

Also If i want to combine the geo location along with the word search in a same sketch and set a count on it.

Hope I will get a solution.

Thanks a lot
