[twitter-dev] GAE Twitter API Access
I am using this http://python-twitter.googlecode.com/hg/twitter.py file to access Twitter's UserTimeline and ProfileImg from GAE - Google App Engine. My GAE app url is http://test.appspot.com and it is accessed using custom domain http://www.mydomain.com. I tried both URL's in twitter application registration, but its not allowing me to access UserTimeLine or ProfileImg on my website. Am I doing something wrong? Please Help.
[twitter-dev] Twitter API Search Question
Not sure if this is correct place to post this question, but if not if anyone can direct me to the correct place. When running the following http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=from%3AVisitliverpool This used to bring back the feed from the Visitliverpool twitter feed. Recently it seems to have stopped, but not bringing back any entries, or any error messages. Doing other usernames appears to still work. Can anyone tell me why? I have some code that runs this, but should have been hitting it no more than once every 15 minutes. Any help would be muchly appreciated.

[twitter-dev] DMs and followers list
I am working on a twitter application, I want followers to be kept in a dropdown in my application like twitter does when I send a DM from twitter. However, since I have less than 50 followers now (alas), I do not know the twitter behavior when someone has (let's say) 5000 or 1 or even 10 followers. Surely you do not put a gigantic list into that dropdown. But since I cannot test that situation, can someone tell me what twitter itself does? I'd like to more or less do the same as twitter in this case. thanks, Mark

[twitter-dev] Using the Authorization header
Hi all, I'm currently writing my own OAuth lib for use with Twitter and have gotten stuck whilst using the Authorization HTTP header, rather than putting the OAuth parameters in the body. An example of a request that is failing is: POST /1/statuses/update.xml HTTP/1.1 Authorization: OAuth realm=http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/ update.xml, oauth_consumer_key=x, oauth_token=x, oauth_nonce=x, oauth_timestamp=1280937572, oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1, oauth_version=1.0, oauth_signature=DLPyc3h6BcC5zbGXrUcujvZnqxk= User-Agent: Java/1.6.0_07 Host: api.twitter.com Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2 Connection: keep-alive Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Content-Length: 53 status=Test%25201%25202%25203%25204%25201280937572396 ...(token etc blanked out, and new lines added in) This results in the server returning a 500 error and the Something is technically wrong. error page. I've talked to another developer who doesn't experience this. I've tried this with the parameters alphabetically ordered, unordered and with and without the 'realm' parameter, which isn't used in the http://dev.twitter.com/pages/auth page. I don't have the same problem (as in the 500 error) when I put the OAuth parameters in the request body, but this often fails as well with 401 'Invalid signature' errors. What's strange is that putting the OAuth parameters into the form at Hueniverse's OAuth request signing page (http://tinyurl.com/y9bvjyt) shows them, including the signature, to be correct. If I retry the same request, it eventually works (sometimes it works the first time, just not consistently), so I don't think I'm calculating the signature incorrectly. Are the 401 errors occurring because Twitter is busy, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated! ben

Re: [twitter-dev] DMs and followers list
Mark, you should implement similarly to what Google Auto-suggest does... As users start typing they send AJAX calls back to the servers that return the top 10 matches. As long as your server responds quickly, users are not going to notice because the total latency might be 100 or 200ms, which would enough to keep users happy. -Marcelo On Wed, Aug 4, 2010 at 6:32 AM, Mark Krieger markskrie...@gmail.com wrote: I am working on a twitter application, I want followers to be kept in a dropdown in my application like twitter does when I send a DM from twitter.

Thanks for the suggestions, but actually I think I've managed to fix
things without switching to something completely different.
Main thing was, I'd either misread, or just failed to read, the
documentation for curl's -d option. It needs to be URL-encoded
before passing to curl. I am how stuffing the text I want to send
through the following; probably overkill, but it seems to work:
TWEET=$(echo -n $MSG | head -c140 | od -An -tx1 -v | tr '\n' ' ' |
sed 's/^/ /;s/[^0-9A-Fa-f]/ /g;s/ *$//;s/ */%/g')
Basically, it %-encodes every character.
The other thing I fixed was oauth-proxy itself. Including the status=
parameter in the Authorization header does seem to break things
sometimes, probably depending on which special characters are included
(and probably not properly escaped) in the value. This patch seems to
fix that:

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Open Source Streaming libraries that use oAuth?
I believe the twitter-stream[1] ruby library supports OAuuth as of the latest version. I haven't personally used the OAuth yet but it's been rock solid for me with basic auth.

[twitter-dev] Firehose bandwidth requirements
Hi! I'm trying to find an estimation/report of the bandwidth requirements to download the firehose stream. Anyone here can share this information? Thanks! Gonzalo.
[twitter-dev] Re: request token/oauth token-alternate method
Also, OAuth oauth_consumer_key= instead of Oauth oauth_consumer_key=... in the authorization header as per Taylor, thanks...
Re: [twitter-dev] Firehose bandwidth requirements
You can estimate this yourself by multiplying the average tweets per day, a publicly available statistic, by the tweet size observable on the sample feed. You can also factor in growth, daily peak and event spikes, all also generally observable on the sampled feed. (Roughly 4:1, all in, over daily average) -John Kalucki http://twitter.com/jkalucki Twitter Inc. On Wed, Aug 4, 2010 at 7:44 PM, Gonzalo Larralde gonzalolarra...@gmail.com wrote: Hi!
