Summary: Remove GetTwitter Processor
Key: NIFI-9671
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9671
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Extensions
Reporter: David Handermann
Assignee: David Handermann
The {{GetTwitter}} processor relies on the [Twitter
Hosebird|https://github.com/twitter/hbc] client, last updated in July 2014. As
linked from the Twitter Hosebird project, the client library is no longer
functional as of [August
2018|https://twittercommunity.com/t/reminder-site-streams-user-streams-and-legacy-dm-endpoints-will-be-sunset-august-16th/109482]
when Twitter decommissioned the older version of the the streams API.
In light of the fact that current processor properties may no longer apply to a
new implementation, the current {{GetTwitter}} processor should be removed. A
new version of the processor based on the current API could be implemented
separately.
