[twitter-dev] Re: How to find out which of your lists someone is a member of.
Thanks Nelu - I was aware of this method, unfortunately, if a user owns 6 lists, and we want to check which of those lists a user is a member of, that would be 6 API calls. This will pretty quickly eat into a user's 150. When a list/members method which just returns all the ids of people in a list is implemented, this will get a lot easier as you'll be able to cache the list members, but until then can anybody else know of a workaround?

[twitter-dev] Re: the new retweet feature might break my app
I am unhappy with the API as it currently exists and retweets received will be canonized into the older format (and retweets sent will be done programmatically in the older fashion instead of through the retweet methods). I suspect there are other app authors who will also do something similar. From our application's point of view, this is the scenario that I am concerned about. I am afraid there are going to be so many different versions of twitter applications floating around, some using the new retweet API to retweet status, some not using the retweet API and just issuing new tweets prefixed with RT. Does twitter have plans to prevent status messages (just like they prevent duplicates) that use the old retweet format and in effect, force applications to upgrade to using the retweet api? If not, then I do not see any short-term solution, other than application developers who rely upon finding retweets for a tweet, will have to now take into account both the new retweet api and the old search method based upon the RT @username format. Which obviously adds complexity. Maybe I'm missing something? :) On Nov 12, 10:00 am, Cameron Kaiser spec...@floodgap.com wrote: My concern is that there is nothing to force users to upgrade their twitter applications, there is nothing to force applications to use the retweet API (although, I agree most probably will) and for an indeterminate amount of time users will still retweet by prefixing their tweets with RT.

[twitter-dev] [bug] GET list statuses rate limit
When I testing List API, I reach the API limit but I find that I still can call GET /:user/lists/:list_id/statuses without any problem or Error. API document say it is limited in 150 call but I can request more. Does this call not limited by API rate? or just a bug? Since I want to use this call to check if the list updated but 150 is not enough to do this. Thanks.

It isn't the API methods per se, it's the fact that (as others have pointed out) there is no way to edit or mark up a tweet using the Retweet system as it is currently designed. This is important to me personally, and certainly to anyone posting with #saveretweets. Also, as implied by the fact that I won't be supporting it in its current form, it's easy enough to continue to post in the old manner (or come up with a new one), which dilutes its alleged advantages in trackability and ignorability, and I've always considered it more important to know who is doing the retweet than who is being retweeted, because who the filter is tells me as much if not more than what is being filtered through them. These are just complaints about the design of the system, although in fairness to Ev, he has acknowledged some of the deficiencies and has implied they will be fixed in later versions (cf. http://evhead.com/2009/11/why-retweet-works-way-it-does.html ).

A few minutes later, the browser would report the server dropped the connection, or something to that effect.

I was still seeing the same problem. I have tested this on several different browsers, all with the same results. However, I am intermittently able to connect and get successfully redirected back to my app; however, this is pretty rare. The redirection might work 1 time out of every 8 attempts. I called GoDaddy and after spending a total of almost 10 minutes on hold, the tech informed me that everything was fine with their server. I am using OAuth and Jason Mathai's Twitter-async PHP wrapper to communicate with the API, which has been working great for me. I am about to tear my hair out over this.

How do I use oauth_token to either recreate that object, or get the accesstoken directly, but using the string instead of the object?

Thing is the new RT api simply does not express the same thing the classic RT @xxx is : It's a subset of a big set of meanings : [ Like , Forward , Comment, Thanks, Emphasis, Reply ] (and I'm sure there are a lot more uses) The rich semantic of classic RTs make them sometime difficult to analyze through simple algorithms but is a no-brainer for a human. Twitter (or Ev) thinks that they needed to disambiguate the RT concept. I'm really not sure about that on the user perspective ... though I see the advantages for the platform. They probably decided to chose the most frequent use (ie : Like). It's a really complex issue, I would not have addressed this way personally (we went through the exact same brainstormings when working on Yokway) but I'm curious to see where the new RT API leads to :) So probably we will keep on seeing classic RTs in the feed, I'll probably keep on RTing full text as I often need to say more / something else than I Like it to my (small) audience. As a developer, I'll try my best to be able to support both as long as possible.

I suspect there are other app authors who will also do something similar. I haven't looked closely at the RT API (it's not currently relevant to FishTwits, so I figure I'll let it stabilize before concerning myself with it), but would you mind sharing your issues with it, either here or off-list if you think that would be more appropriate? It isn't the API methods per se, it's the fact that (as others have pointed out) there is no way to edit or mark up a tweet using the Retweet system as it is currently designed. This is important to me personally, and certainly to anyone posting with #saveretweets. Also, as implied by the fact that I won't be supporting it in its current form, it's easy enough to continue to post in the old manner (or come up with a new one), which dilutes its alleged advantages in trackability and ignorability, and I've always considered it more important to know who is doing the retweet than who is being retweeted, because who the filter is tells me as much if not more than what is being filtered through them. These are just complaints about the design of the system, although in fairness to Ev, he has acknowledged some of the deficiencies and has implied they will be fixed in later versions (cf. http://evhead.com/2009/11/why-retweet-works-way-it-does.html ). But I won't be supporting posting through it in its current form. -- personal:http://www.cameronkaiser.com/-- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems *www.floodgap.com* ckai...@floodgap.com -- BOND THEME NOW PLAYING: Thunderball --
[twitter-dev] oauth no redirecting
Here's my code https://gist.github.com/7aa3ae9307c43b7881a7 Am I missing something? Whenever I try and allow my application it just goes to http://twitter.com/oauth/authorize instead of redirecting back to my app? I've quintuple checked all my app settings.
[twitter-dev] Social Graph Methods: Removal of Pagination
As previously announced by Alex Payne on September 24th (see http://bit.ly/46x1iL), we're removing support for pagination from the / friends/ids and /followers/ids methods. As of that time we set a hard deadline of October 26th, 2009. The original date has passed as we tried to give all of our partners extra time, but we are going to need to make the change now. At some point today, the page and count parameters will be ignored by the /friends/ids and /followers/ids methods and we will only be supporting cursors. Unfortunately, due to architectural considerations, cursor identifiers are not predictable. This means that you will have to extract the next and previous cursor identifiers from the results returned to you. For example, to get Obama's followers, we would first perform a GET against: http://twitter.com/followers/ids/barackobama.xml?cursor=-1 Which returns XML similar to: id_list ids id30592818/id (... more ids ...) /ids next_cursor1319042195162293654/next_cursor previous_cursor-8675309/previous_cursor /id_list To retrieve the next 5000 IDs, we would then perform a GET against: http://twitter.com/followers/ids/barackobama.xml?cursor=1319042195162293654 Note that cursors are signed 64-bit integers.

[twitter-dev] PHP/cURL statuses/update results in 200 OK, but no actual update
Very simple PHP/cURL script to update a status. With the curl output set to verbose, I see the connection being made and a response code of 200 OK. Unfortunately, my status isn't actually updating and I can't figure out why. The status message is urlencoded, basic authentication is successful, and using curl from the command line works just fine. I even compared the curl request from the command line to that generated with PHP's libcurl and the results are identical... but no status update! Here are my curl bits: $url = http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml;; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $user_agent); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, TRUE); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, status=.urlencode($tweet)); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $username:$password); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, TRUE); Any ideas?
[twitter-dev] Re: [twitter-api-announce] Updates to the List API (list descriptions, cursoring lists of lists, finding by list id rather than slug more consistent names)
Hey Marcel, Just checking - You haven't rolled this change yet right?: /:user/lists/:list_id/memberships becomes /:user/lists/:list_id/followers It seems attempting to follow a user who doesn't exist (through the members post) results in a 500 at the moment, rather than a 404. Tim. On Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 9:00 AM, Marcel Molina mar...@twitter.com wrote: Two additions and two changes to the List API will be deployed in the next few days: * List descriptions We're adding a description to every list. You'll be able to specify a description when you create or update a list and the description will be included in the payload. * Cursoring through lists of lists All resources that return a list of lists will include next and previous cursors and will accept a :cursor parameter. * Finding by list id rather than slug When you change the name of a list, the slug will be updated to reflect that change. That means using the slug in the url for resources to operate on lists requires the onerous task of validating that the slug for the list you are about to do something with hasn't been updated since the last time you stored its slug. What a nightmare :-) Every list also has an id. This value won't change. We'll be changing the API to replace all instances of a list slug in urls to be list ids instead. * Consistent names The terminology we've used thus far for people you follow with a list is members. The terminology for people who are following a list is subscribers. We're going to mirror the terminology used for users and change it to followers and following respectively. So: /:user/lists/:list_id/memberships becomes /:user/lists/:list_id/followers /:user/lists/:list_id/subscribers becomes /:user/lists/:list_id/following As we deploy these changes we'll send out a heads up on the dev list and @twitterapi. -- Marcel Molina Twitter Platform Team http://twitter.com/noradio
[twitter-dev] Request for posting to list memberships - error codes
Hey Twitter crew, When trying to add a user to a list it makes sense if a 404 is returned (I think) both if the user isn't found, or if the list (id or slug) isn't found. It would be cool if the content of the response could say whether it was the user or list that wasn't found. Cheers, Tim.
[twitter-dev] Re: Social Graph Methods: Removal of Pagination
Well I think most issues should have been long resolved by now. Cursors have been live for a while now and there was plenty of warning ahead of today. The turn off should have no affect if you have ported to Cursors.

Just like everyone knew the twitpocalypse was coming - but people still got burnt - even some high profile apps. An earlier day in the week is prudent if it's a planned change.
