How do apps like Twitpic and WeFollow use larger sized profile
images??

The Twitter API's largest profile image is 73x73 (http://

I know that. Thats not what I am asking for. I am wondering how
Twitpic is able to get 128x128 when we can only get 73x73 as the
largest thumbnail.

For example. Image I originally uploaded is stored at this url.
http://a3.twimg.com/profile_images/290187007/n500024856_39228_3390.jpg

Well, the API returns (in my case)

Replacing _normal.jpg with _reasonably_small.jpg (so that it becomes

A quick look on Google gave me this code :
$(#profile_image).html('img src=' + profile_image.replace('normal', 
'reasonably_small') + ' /');


So just get the normal one and replace it with reasonably_small. (Of 
course, the above code isn't perfect, as it will also match normal in 
the rest of the URL, but I hope that you get the point.

So I would have to use regex or some kind of text function to replace?
A bit dirty. Why isn't reasonably small one of the options in the

  My idea is to keep two cookies: oauth_tokens and token_secrets. I

  ampersand, encrypt them and put them in a cookie (and the same for the
  secrets).

  As far as I know, oauth tokens and secrets can not contain any
  ampersands, but I'm not sure. so:
  1) Does anyone know if ampersands can occur in tokens or secrets?
  2) Do you think this is a good idea, or would you tackle it otherwise?

If I understand correctly what you suggested, it's still something the users
can fake.
A user can say @aplusk (Ashton Kutcher) is his username and that's fake.

 It is totally possible Chief, but it just seems a bit overkill if all you

 If you are asking a user to authorize your app, IMHO, most users will
 expect something in return. My thoughts are to provide the
 most transparency to users while also providing the least friction to them.

 What about the no-auth call suggestion I made? Seems simpler for you and
 the user. Doesn't it?

Re: [twitter-dev] user stream best practices

2010-12-13 Thread John Kalucki
Roughly:
If the tweet is from a following, place it in the home timeline.
If the tweet refers to the user (to or from), or contains the @screenname
place it in mentions
If it's a message - messages.
What remains is probably a track term.

 Hi,

 I'm implementing user streams in my client and looking for some advice
 on best practices.  My client supports viewing multiple timelines at
 the same time, so it's quite possible to, for example: view a saved
 search, the user's own home timeline, and another user's recent
 tweets.

 Of course, I'd love to implement these in user streams.  My concern is
 that if each of these timelines were to open a separate stream
 simultaneously, then the user could easily cross over their limit of
 active streams.  Another potential solution seems to be adding the
 search and the second user as tracking parameters to a single user
 stream.  That works fine and the track parameter limitations seem to
 be similar to the limitations of the UI/UX of my app, so it seemed
 like a good fit.

 The challenge is that once track parameters are added to the stream I
 get a whole bunch of new statuses returned but i can't tell which are
 associated with each parameter.  Or, well, I couldn't figure out how
 to tell short of building a regex for each of my track parameters and
 trying to sort the items by hand (yuck!).

 So my question:
 1.  Is there some way to disambiguate statuses returned as a specific
 track parameter from those returned for other reasons?
 2.  Is there some other way to skin this cat that I'm missing?

 Thanks,
 Isaiah

[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter4j OAuth on Android is Simple

2010-12-13 Thread Mathias Lin
Hi Mukesh,

thanks for sharing the code!

One question I got regarding the callback url:

in your sample you're using the callback url myapp://mainactivity, but
how can you actually register such callback url that doesn't start
with http on twitter? When I try to register such url in my app
details on twitter, I would get an error Invalid url format. Or
sometimes a message please contact api[at]twitter.com to add the
protocol, etc. etc.. So is that the way you did as well - having the
twitter api team enable the custom 'protocol' for you?

Thanks!
Mathias

 Hi All,

 Twitter4jOAuthforAndroidexample by Mukesh,this example would help
 you to understand the usage of Intent after succesfully authentication
 usingOAuthinAndroid.

 make use of it and enjoy..

 About :OAuth

 OAuthis an open protocol that allows users to hand out tokens instead
 of usernames and passwords to their data hosted by a given service
 provider. With Twitter finally deciding to deprecate the existing
 Basic Authentication by June, most of the apps would have to 
 implementOAuthfor Twitter.

 While implementingOAuthfor Twitter onAndroidplatform, I came
 across hell of out of tutorials and blogs, some might gives different
 ways of usingOAuth. below is the example where i have tried the
 easiest way to implement Twitter4j and the challenges you may face.

 Step 1:

 First step for creating the solution is registering an app with
 Twitter. You can do that by filling in details at this URL: Twitter.

 Some basic info like Application icon, App name etc are needed.

 The two most important details to be provided are, type of Application
 and Callback URL. Select type of application as Browser.

 Now callback url could be any valid url.

 Default Action should be : Select as Read and Write

 Once you successfully fill up all the details, you would get Consumer
 Key and Consumer Secret from Twitter. These are the keys Twitter
 uses for identifying your app so note it down carefully.

 Step 2:
 Download signpost-commonshttp4-1.2.jar , signpost-core-1.2.jar,
 twitter4j-core-2.1.0.jar file and add your project libs.
 I'm using signpost-commonshttp4 and signpost-core open-source
 libraries for implementation.

 Step3: Create aAndroidApplication, Add the above downloaded jar
 files into your projects, add internet permissions to your project
 manifest file.

 Below is the code which can be reuse.

 package
 com.sogeti.msl;

 import
 java.sql.Date;

[twitter-dev] Curious to know if this is the right behavior

2010-12-13 Thread satinder rana
Hi. I am new to using twitter apis to get the tweets from a particular
user. But while trying to fetch the tweets using
http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/user.json?callback=twitterCallback2amp;count=10
or similar url, I was able to retrieve tweets from users even if the
tweets were protected. Is this the correct behavior?

Not seeing that behavior here, when not using OAuth. Of course, if you 
use OAuth, you can view the tweets of the people the user is following..


(Test URL I used is: 
http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/elinetabak.json?callback=twitterCallback2count=10)

Thanks Tom

I think I should go through the OAuth for a better understanding of
how it works :)
Thank you for a prompt reply.

[twitter-dev] Twitter incorrectly oEmbedding Github gists

2010-12-13 Thread Ted Han
Hey dudes,


Since there's no where else to post this news, i thought i'd mention
that links like this:


http://twitter.com/#!/dojo4/status/13323833742204928



Do not correctly oembed gists. Having discussed the issue with github,
they rightly point out that their endpoint is correctly outputting
gists:


http://twitter.com/#!/GitHubHelp/status/12009103031279616



However they're not being displayed.


Just thought someone should know,

[twitter-dev] @Anywhere follow and update events?

Hi,

I am using the hovercards and T.Status.update() functionality in

I was wondering if it possible to specify event callbacks when the
user has successfully followed or tweeted.

I've looked through the documentation and searched and didn't seen
anything, but maybe I missed something?

Thanks!

[twitter-dev] How to pull tweets excepting all that include @username and/or are Retweets?

2010-12-13 Thread Guillermo
Hi guys,

Looking to see if anyone knows how to pull only tweets that are plain
text or external links, but dont have any @username and/or retweets on
them.

I have a jquery that pulls a search for tweets based on a keyword and
it streams it in a cool layout, but the tweets are so full of these @s
and RTs that its pretty difficult to read them.

My users are asking for an option to see tweets plain text or w
external links (sites, pics, videos) only.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thx

Just filter them out manually. As far as I know, there's no API method 
that gives you this information.

[twitter-dev] How to get twitter oauth callback url returned to activity (on Android)?

2010-12-13 Thread Mathias Lin
How to get twitter oauth callback url returned to activity (on
Android) when it's a callback url starting with http - or
alternatively: how to register a callback url that doesn't start with
http?

I want to use signpost/OAuth with Twitter in my native Android app so
that I have an activity handling the callback url (and user doesn't
need to enter the pin or the pin doesn't need to be screen scraped). I
found many posts with samples like:

Oauth Callback not found after allowing the app on Twitter.

http://dev.bostone.us/2009/07/16/android-oauth-twitter-updates/#idc-cover

http://code.google.com/p/agirardello/

and they all use a callback url that doesn't start with http. For
example:

data android:scheme=myapp android:host=twitt/data
But how to register a callback url in the twitter app settings? I'm
always getting 'invalid url format' when submitting the app settings
form.

I suppose, since I am in the browser already when the twitter site
calls the callback url, I cannot just use http as the scheme (I tried
to use http://www.mydomain.com and set http as the scheme and www.mydomain.com
as the host). At least in my test, I won't be redirected to the app
but remain in the browser and the callback url is opened in the
browser. (I also cleared the defaults of the browser app before.)

data android:scheme=http android:host=www.mydomain.com/data

[twitter-dev] Single-Sign-On for own app and native Twitter app (like Facebook SDK)

2010-12-13 Thread Mathias Lin
Is there a way to authenticate via OAuth in a single-sign-on manner
like the Facebook SDK offers? Means, that when I call the authorize
url, I would come to the native Twitter app (not browser or webview),
eventually login (if not yet) and allow access to my app there, then
return to my own app - but I will stay signed in in the native Twitter
app as well.

Hi all,

I have been reading and trying to find some information related to the
garden hose access. My question is, how do we access to the garden
hose and is it now only 3% compare to the spritzer ? Is there any
similar around 10~15% access because I need to use it for academic
research purpose.

Thank you.

[twitter-dev] friendships/destroy Could not authenticate you

2010-12-13 Thread Matthew
Here's the code:


$params = array('user_id'= 16685316);
$oauth = new TwitterOAuth(
TWITTER_OAUTH_CONSUMER_KEY,
TWITTER_OAUTH_SECRET_KEY,
$user-getOauthToken(),
$user-getOauthTokenSecret()
);
Log::debug(params, $params);
$result = $oauth-post('friendships/destroy', $params);
Log::debug(result, $result);
if (isset($result-error)) {
return false;
}
return true;

Problem is all requests to both friendships/destroy and friendships/
create fail with the following:


stdClass Object
(
[request] = /1/friendships/destroy.json
[error] = Could not authenticate you.
)



HOWEVER, using the exact same user object in memory I can successfully
get my personal timeline. ??
