[twitter-dev] Re: Tweet Button Display Issue
Hey Matt, Thanks for getting back to me, I have attached the HTML that was generated from the Twitter resources page: a href=http://twitter.com/share; class=twitter-share-button data- url=http://www.mycleveragency.com; data-text=I just found the first hidden easter egg! data-count=none data-via=sammyhTweet/ ascript type=text/javascript src=http://platform.twitter.com/ widgets.js/script I did find a work around but it isn't ideal as it directs users to a new Twitter window, It'd be so much better if I could get it to work with the actual tweet button.

[twitter-dev] Re: Auto updates to twitter page
I am working on WWTS application of pwc client. Here we have countries info and we can edit the info of each country as well. Now, if I edit info, update and click on twitter icon available on this page, it should redirect and post the same to http://twitter.com/pwc_WWTS;. Please help me which APIs I can use to acheive it. Also, the steps I have to proceed here. Its not clear what you want to do when you say 'post the same to http://twitter.com;. are you tryin' to post a status update to twitter? If so then your application needs to get oAuth for the user 'pwc_WWTS'.

[twitter-dev] how do i know that a tweet i posted in twitter from my rails application?
Hi all, I am sharing the posts made in my rails application in twitter. Here is the code I am using: div id=custom-tweet-button a href=http://twitter.com/share?url=[url_value in this palce]text=This is a test target=_blank %=image_tag(../images/share_icons/ share_this_on_twitter.png, :id=twitshare, :border = 0) % /a /div When the user clicks on the twitter sharing image, another window will open in which it asks the user to login to twitter if he is not already logged in. Then after that tweet box will appear there with text populated in it. The user can click the tweet button there and the tweet will be posted in the logged in twitter account and a confirmation message will be displayed in this window and the window will be closed in few seconds. But my problem is this: How does my application know that the tweet is posted in twitter? the application needs to give some rewards to the user upon successful tweets in twitter. Any help?

Can you give an example of the HTTP headers or OAuth query parameters you're

I recommend explicitly specifying a user_id or screen_name for these
methods, instead of relying on the magic implicit user that auth brings you.
I also recommend sticking to HTTP header-based auth, as it dramatically
separates concerns.
Your resource-specific query parameters should be added to the URL before
you compute your signature -- in your signature base string, the query
parameters should be sorted.

[twitter-dev] Re: Confused about rate limits
:) Ok, authenticated means what it means in the context of the API calls. I am a developer, I make the difference. Perhaps I wasn't too clear: first I used cURL to call http://api.twitter.com/account/ rate_limit_status.json anonymously, no oauth tokens, nothing, and I got 150. Then I used a CodeIgniter Twitter library from here https://github.com/elliothaughin/codeigniter-twitter to authenticate and make the call to account/verify_credentials and to account/ rate_limit_status. I got my account info ok, which means that the request was authenticated, but the rate limit was still 150 but with less remaining request (2 to be exact). There is no question about whether or not I am authenticated, because I call other API resources that require authentication and I always get the data with a 200 http status header, but the maximum hourly requests stay at 150 and the remaining requests go down after each call. I'm guessing that it may not stop at 150 on authenticated requests but I'd hate to have to sit here and click through my app 150 times to find out.

[twitter-dev] Re: Confused about rate limits
This is something I am experiencing as well. There is clearly 150 that is awarded to the accounts per hour. I signed out and signed in, ad every time there is 150 requests, not 350. Is there suppose to be 350 or 150 coming from this call? http://twitter.com/account/rate_limit_status.json because I get 150 for my accounts. It will reset on another account, but still only to 150 not 350.

and make the call to account/verify_credentials and to account/
rate_limit_status. I got my account info ok, which means that the
request was authenticated, but the rate limit was still 150 but with
less remaining request (2 to be exact).
There is no question about whether or not I am authenticated, because
I call other API resources that require authentication and I always
get the data with a 200 http status header, but the maximum hourly
requests stay at 150 and the remaining requests go down after each
call. I'm guessing that it may not stop at 150 on authenticated
requests but I'd hate to have to sit here and click through my app 150
times to find out.

[twitter-dev] Re: Confused about rate limits
You actually have to put the 1 before account: http://api.twitter.com/1/{end
point}.json I just now realized that the CodeIgniter library that I
use does not add the version number. I guess I'll have to send the
developer a note on that.
Hey! It works fine now. Thank you. I would have never thought to look
at what URL the library was sending requests to.
Thanks to all who replied.

[twitter-dev] Users/Lookup
Hi,
I have read all the users/lookup related posts and also scoured the
internet looking for an appropriate example.I posted a question as a
reply on one but don't see it so I am hoping someone can help a
twitter api newbie.
I just want to get results from users/lookup. I am using Abraham's
Oauth library, which I have been able to get to work in other
instances with no problems. I'm hoping it's my lack of understanding
of how the syntax should be. Here is the code:
// all values populated correctly
$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET,
$OAuthKey, $OAuthSecret);
// saw this example as correction of the following line; neither
seems to work
$userDeets = $connection-get('/users/lookup.json',
array('screen_name' = 'biz,twitterapi'));
// $userDeets = $connection-get('/users/lookup.json?
screen_name=biz,twitterapi');
foreach ($userDeets as $item)
{
echo $item-followers_count;
echo br;
}
Thanks in advance for any insight.

[twitter-dev] Re: users/lookup.json
If anyone can help me I would SO appreciate. I have successfully used
Abraham's Twitter Oauth in the past, yet I am relatively new to
Twitter API programming. I am trying to use users/lookup and
understand that it has to be authenticated. I am not getting results
and I have searched for clear examples but haven't found any,
I think it is partly because I don't understand how to use the syntax.
(That's why I like examples.) Anyway the code is here:
$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET,
$OAuthKey, $OAuthSecret);
// saw this example somewhere
$userDeets = $connection-get('/users/lookup.json',
array('screen_name' = 'biz,twitterapi'));
// neither method seems to work. Advice on which one to use would
also be nice.
// $userDeets = $connection-get('/users/lookup.json?
screen_name=biz,twitterapi');
foreach ($userDeets as $item)
{
echo $item-followers_count;
echo br;
}
Again I'm hoping it's just something stupid syntactically that I'm
doing. -Gabe

Thanks to Abraham for reminding me about var_dump which showed the

At risk of outing myself as stupid I will do so anyway in case there
might be someone out there who has also been searching for how to do
this, from start to finish.
This code works. The stupid part was not putting the entire URL in the
get statement. I was errantly going by a different example. Assuming
you are familiar with Abraham's Oauth library,
$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET,
$OAuthKey, $OAuthSecret);
$userDeets = $connection-get('http://api.twitter.com/1/users/
lookup.json', array('screen_name' = 'biz, twitterapi'));

Email address will not returned to your from the Twitter API, whether you've authenticated a user or not -- it's not part of the package.

[twitter-dev] Re: The thinking behind not drawing attention to Unfollows?
For a little clarification, this policy item was added to our API
Terms of Service with the release of our User Streams and Site Streams
products. Both streams deliver negative events such as unfollows and
unfavorites as distinct objects in the streams, so apps can adjust in
real-time. This policy is intended to prevent the broadcast of these
events to the end-user as notifications that the event happened.
In general, reporting who has unfollowed User A back to User A through
derivative methods (such as comparing their current follower list to a
cached version) is discouraged, but not prohibited. That same user
could come to the same conclusions through a similar method. Following
the spirit of this policy item, though, you may not broadcast these
kinds of events to other users (i.e. you may not show User C that User
B unfollowed User A).
As always, if you have any questions about our policies, you can email
a...@twitter.com.

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Get friends who registered on my website?
I would store the Twitter username and id for all of your users. Then you should be able to correlate them from within your own system rather than constantly doing lookups.

At first I've decided to get user friends list. Then get 'name' of friends. And check that field in my website database. If names are the same - It's a possible users friend. There are 2 major problems with this approach: 1) not all users fill their correct names and surnames in twitter and other websites + If users name is too common - we will grab too many false results. 2) I can't get all of users friends: First I recursively get friends/ids 5000 ids at once. after that I make a call to users/lookup - 100 ids at once. My servers fail somewhere at users/lookup iterations. And I'm testing on user with ~5000 friends. Is there any way to get user friends bulk information?
