[twitter-dev] Twitter List API not working?

2009-11-24 Thread alan_b

[twitter-dev] Overall flow in writing an app with a Tweet this capability

2009-11-24 Thread Terry Jones
Hi all

I'm writing an app that will give the user a way to tweet results via
OAuth.  I think I understand the steps involved but I'd like to be sure.
Here's a summary of what I plan to do. A first thing to know is that I plan
to use a cookie to know whether a user has previously used our app.

 - If a user's browser send our cookie, we'll use it to look up the user's
   Access Token and screename, we display their screenname and we know how
   to tweet on their behalf. It seems that long-term storage of Access
   Tokens is encouraged, although they're obviously something to be careful
   with.  Using a cookie to indicate that you've used our site before
   leaves open the possibility for mischief if a user's cookies are
   compromised in some way. Are there better ways to do this?

 - If the browser doesn't send a cookie, we display a sign in with Twitter
   icon http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Sign-in-with-Twitter which when clicked
   initiates the OAuth dance, resulting in us having an Access Token. We
   use that (and our Consumer info) to call account/verify_credentials and
   from the result of that we can extract the user's screenname. We push a
   cookie back to the browser for use next time.

   As I read it, using OAuth does *not* in general result in the Consumer
   getting to know the user's name on the Service Provider. Is that
   correct? Some apps may not need to know it (e.g., you can let the user
   try to navigate to a protected resource and you just send the right
   headers and you're in), but in this case we'd like to know it - perhaps
   just to display the user's screenname, or to pass a screenname or id to
   a method that doesn't require auth but which does require a user name.

Can someone confirm that the above sequence of events is sensible?  BTW,
I'm not looking for explanation of OAuth itself, I'm pretty sure I
understand what's required there, and there are plenty of code samples
around.

[twitter-dev] Question about licensing

2009-11-24 Thread DeWitt Clinton
Hi all,

I recently received a request to implement the retweet api calls in the
python-twitter and java-twitter libraries, but before I proceed I was hoping
for a bit of clarification around the licensing terms for the Twitter API.

My layman's understanding is that without explicit terms there are
relatively few rights offered by default regarding a specification.  In
particular, I have a few questions about copyright, trademark, and patents
rights being offered to implementors of the Twitter API.  My longstanding
sense is that Twitter has indicated the spirit of offering the API under
generally permissive usage rights, so hopefully this thread can move the
discussion forward a bit and perhaps turn that spirit into something more
formal.


*Copyright*

**Question: Under what terms may third-party library and application
developers use the text and images associated with the Twitter API
specification?

Example use case:  Third-party library developers would like to copy and/or
modify the text of the Twitter API specification in the library's
documentation.  This is preferred over inventing new text for the
documentation, the meaning of which could deviate from the canonical version
in the Twitter API specification.

Potential concern:  Without a copyright license, implementors may not be
permitted to use or reuse the Twitter API specification text in third-party
library documentation.

Current state:  While the Twitter API specification itself doesn't mention
copyright, the Twitter Terms of Service (http://twitter.com/tos) state: The
Services are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of both the
United States and foreign countries, which could reasonably be interpreted
to apply to the Twitter API service as well.

Possible desired outcome:  The Twitter API specification is made available
under a permissive and derivative works-friendly copyright license, such as
the Creative Commons BY or BY-SA license.


*Trademark*

Question: Under what terms may third-party library and application
developers use the various registered service marks of Twitter, Inc?

Example use case:  Third-party library authors would like to use the words
twitter, tweet, retweet (all live service marks of Twitter, Inc) in
their libraries.  This is preferred over third-party library authors
inventing new terms for API methods such as retweet.

Potential concern: Without terms that specify where and how the various
registered marks can be used, third-party library implementors may or may
not be permitted to use terms such as twitter, tweet, retweet, etc.,
in their libraries.

Current state:  The Twitter Terms of Service (http://twitter.com/tos) appear
to prohibit such use: Nothing in the Terms gives you a right to use the
Twitter name or any of the Twitter trademarks, logos, domain names, and
other distinctive brand features.

Possible desired outcome:  Twitter publishes acceptable-use guidelines for
registered marks in third-party libraries and third-party applications.


*Patent*

Question:  Under what terms may third-party library and application
developers make use of current or future patent claims made by Twitter, Inc?

Example use cases:  A third-party developer may wish to implement an
independent service that conforms to the Twitter API method signatures, or a
third-party developer may wish to implement a library that implements
portions of the Twitter API on the client.

Potential concern:  Without terms that specify how third-party developers
may use patent claims (if any) made by Twitter, Inc, implementors assume the
risk of potentially infringing on current or future claims made by Twitter.

Current state:  Twitter (to my knowledge) has made no statement regarding
patent claims with respect to implementations of the Twitter API.

Possible desired outcome:  The Twitter API specification is made available
under a patent agreement, such as the Open Web Foundation Agreement (
http://openwebfoundation.org/legal/), or a similarly permissive agreement,
such as the Microsoft Open Specification Promise (
http://www.microsoft.com/Interop/osp/) or a Google-style patent license (
http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/patent-license.html).


...

I realize that these are meaty (and potentially legally sensitive) questions
of course, and likely ones that are not easily answered in a public forum.
 However, any feedback from the team would certainly be appreciated.

The fact that people are even thinking about these types of questions is a
good thing, both for open specification development in general, but also
because it shows how successful and important the Twitter API is today.  So
again, continued success with the API, and I look forward to hearing more
from the team.

-DeWitt


[twitter-dev] Re: Retweets and the Public Timeline

2009-11-24 Thread Tyson Lowery
Well this is interesting.  If you use statuses/user_timeline and
specify the format as RSS or ATOM, you get the retweets.  If you
specify XML or JSON, you do not get the retweets.  I don't think the
format should impact the result set.

you need to use OAuth to get client attribution.


Hello, I am new to Twitter development. Is there any way to get client
type (name of the client software that tweet posted) for posted tweet
such as gravity, Tweetie, TweetDeck, Twittelator, Uber Twitter etc...
My second question is it possible to understand that tweet send from
PC or mobile phone?

[twitter-dev] Track Limiting

2009-11-24 Thread Andres
We currently track about 300 keywords using the track streaming API.
We have been granted 1st level elevated access but was wondering if
there is a total limit to the results we get.

I'll try to explain this: We are tracking words like, Twitter,
Twilight,Coke etc. We also recently added the word Friday so that we
can track Black Friday results and noticed that we should be getting
a lot more results. Is there a maximum limit that is returned for all
keywords or are specific keywords limited?

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks.

[twitter-dev] Re: streaming API missing a lot of tweets

2009-11-24 Thread John Kalucki
Gardenhose is a access level for the /1/statuses/sample resource. If
you are sampling, you are rather unlikely to ever see a given user's
status, even one as prolific as @guykawasaki. [Snark redacted -- Ed.]

Please detail how you are connecting to the Streaming API and what you
expect in return. Perhaps we can clear up a misunderstanding.

Also, if you are looking for statuses from specific users, you may be
better off with /1/statuses/filter and the follow parameter or also
the track parameter to gather mentions.

Thanks, I'll look into that but I doubt that's the issue, this started
happening when they started storing the images in a different
location, and it hasn't worked since.
It seems to go through without any errors from the api yet when you go
to your twitter page nothing has been changed.
Everything else works, the font colors etc..

The response from the api says the background image is here
http://a0.twimg.com/profile_background_images/bg.gif that's not the
correct location for the image.

2009-11-24 Thread John Kalucki
Andres,

All track results are currently rate limited in the Streaming API.
Each level of access gives more keywords and also a larger proportion
of the total stream. To help you manage this, we sent a limit notice
after each limited period expires. If you count the statuses received
and also examine the limit notice, you can determine the amount that
you are over-requesting.

 Hi all,
 I recently received a request to implement the retweet api calls in the
 python-twitter and java-twitter libraries, but before I proceed I was hoping
 for a bit of clarification around the licensing terms for the Twitter API.
 My layman's understanding is that without explicit terms there are
 relatively few rights offered by default regarding a specification.  In
 particular, I have a few questions about copyright, trademark, and patents
 rights being offered to implementors of the Twitter API.  My longstanding
 sense is that Twitter has indicated the spirit of offering the API under
 generally permissive usage rights, so hopefully this thread can move the
 discussion forward a bit and perhaps turn that spirit into something more
 formal.

 Copyright
 Question: Under what terms may third-party library and application
 developers use the text and images associated with the Twitter API
 specification?
 Example use case:  Third-party library developers would like to copy and/or
 modify the text of the Twitter API specification in the library's
 documentation.  This is preferred over inventing new text for the
 documentation, the meaning of which could deviate from the canonical version
 in the Twitter API specification.
 Potential concern:  Without a copyright license, implementors may not be
 permitted to use or reuse the Twitter API specification text in third-party
 library documentation.
 Current state:  While the Twitter API specification itself doesn't mention
 copyright, the Twitter Terms of Service (http://twitter.com/tos) state: The
 Services are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of both the
 United States and foreign countries, which could reasonably be interpreted
 to apply to the Twitter API service as well.
 Possible desired outcome:  The Twitter API specification is made available
 under a permissive and derivative works-friendly copyright license, such as
 the Creative Commons BY or BY-SA license.

 Trademark
 Question: Under what terms may third-party library and application
 developers use the various registered service marks of Twitter, Inc?
 Example use case:  Third-party library authors would like to use the words
 twitter, tweet, retweet (all live service marks of Twitter, Inc) in
 their libraries.  This is preferred over third-party library authors
 inventing new terms for API methods such as retweet.
 Potential concern: Without terms that specify where and how the various
 registered marks can be used, third-party library implementors may or may
 not be permitted to use terms such as twitter, tweet, retweet, etc.,
 in their libraries.
 Current state:  The Twitter Terms of Service (http://twitter.com/tos) appear
 to prohibit such use: Nothing in the Terms gives you a right to use the
 Twitter name or any of the Twitter trademarks, logos, domain names, and
 other distinctive brand features.
 Possible desired outcome:  Twitter publishes acceptable-use guidelines for
 registered marks in third-party libraries and third-party applications.

 Patent
 Question:  Under what terms may third-party library and application
 developers make use of current or future patent claims made by Twitter, Inc?
 Example use cases:  A third-party developer may wish to implement an
 independent service that conforms to the Twitter API method signatures, or a
 third-party developer may wish to implement a library that implements
 portions of the Twitter API on the client.
 Potential concern:  Without terms that specify how third-party developers
 may use patent claims (if any) made by Twitter, Inc, implementors assume the
 risk of potentially infringing on current or future claims made by Twitter.
 Current state:  Twitter (to my knowledge) has made no statement regarding
 patent claims with respect to implementations of the Twitter API.
 Possible desired outcome:  The Twitter API specification is made available
 under a patent agreement, such as the Open Web Foundation Agreement
 (http://openwebfoundation.org/legal/), or a similarly permissive agreement,
 such as the Microsoft Open Specification Promise
 (http://www.microsoft.com/Interop/osp/) or a Google-style patent license
 (http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/patent-license.html).

 of course, and likely ones that are not easily answered in a public forum.

Re: [twitter-dev] oauth Process flow and status Part 1

2009-11-24 Thread ryan alford
The signature has to go last.  That's one mistake that most people make.
 You are suppose to put the parameters in order EXCEPT the signature
parameter.  The signature parameter is created by using the other
parameters, then it's appended to the end of the query string.

The OAuth signature is generated.

I made a blog post where I tried to explain it a little better than the
documentation does.  It's for .Net for the desktop, but the process is the
same for any language, and only slightly different for web applications.

 1. I created the following URL:

 When I put this in a browser to test it, I get the following error:

 Failed to validate oauth signature and token

 1. What is wrong with the string?
   - Is the oauth_signature just your Consumer secret string?
   - Do I have to use oauth_signature_method and what method do I use.
 If it is sha1, what string do I hash? The whole URL?

 Do I POST the data to http://twitter.com/oauth/request_token or GET or
 what?

I having this error for a while and is happening only on my machine, I

starting to think that there might be something related to my
environment that is causing the 401 Unauthorized issue. I have a Mac
with OS 10.5.6 and a VM running on Paralles, the VM is Fedora Core
running ruby 1.8.6 (2007-06-07 patchlevel 36) [i386-linux], i am using
twitter (0.7.5) and oauth (0.3.6) and when I run this code:

oauth = Twitter::OAuth.new('consumer_key', 'consumer_secret')
atokens = oauth.request_token(:oauth_callback = callback)

I always get a 401 Unauthorized, apparently a couples of weeks ago
there was a general issue with twitter API and was getting the same
error
from a completely different environment (PC) but now the general issue
seems to be solved my PC is able to run the code but my VM still
giving me the 401, any clue on how could I do further tests?

BTW: I have already ask on the Twitter gem Google Group, waiting for
answer. Just wanted to see if you could give me a clue

[twitter-dev] Re: Wrong account and correct IP is whitelisted

2009-11-24 Thread Brian Sutorius
You can apply for whitelisting again while logged in as the correct
account. Just make sure to mention the other username so that we know
the history of your request.

[twitter-dev] oauth_callback help

2009-11-24 Thread Duane Roelands
Trying to work through web authentication and running into a problem
that I am sure someone else has solved.

http://twitter.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=lM4ZRypYyYkA255S2dHVk6JmPuAnjK14DVFqreuNvxsoauth_callback=http://localhost:51157/Default.aspx

I authorize the app, but I am not redirected to my localhost page - I
am redirected to the URL in the application settings.  Is my URL not
properly formed?

 So why was Listerine blocked? I tried out the app once and didn't
 necessarily see any behavior that was objectionable based on the link you
 sent?

wrong with it.
Thanks you very much ;-)
