[twitter-dev] Streaming API question..

2010-09-27 Thread omri 
hi there,
I am using the streaming API (the statuses/filter), and I get a lot of
tweets in spanish.
I wanted to know if there is a way to get results only in English?
I tried to use the geo-location of the USA only, but it didn't help
much.

anybody?

thanks, Omri

[twitter-dev] Re: help with accessing the streaming api

2010-09-11 Thread omri 
I request this URL :
http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/firehose.json

i get this message on my compiler :
WARNING  2010-09-11 07:31:30,447 urlfetch_stub.py:284] Stripped
prohibited headers from URLFetch request: ['Host']

i think something is wrong with my permission.

I read this doc.

This is the code i wrote in prder to use the streaming :

status_url = http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/firehose.json;
request = urllib2.Request(status_url)
auth = base64.encodestring('(username):(password)')[:-1]
request.add_header('Authorization', basic %s % auth)
firehose = urllib2.urlopen(request)
for tweet in firehose:
print tweet

firehose.close

thanks again

   Hi Omri,

   With basic auth, you don't use your consumer key or secret at all.
  Consumer
   key and secret are used when authorizing through OAuth, and the
   implementation is a bit more detailed than putting them in a header.

   In your case, you want to use basic authorization, which should be easier
   for your initial implementation.

   Here are some pointers in the right direction for using basic auth with
   Python's urllib2:http://docs.python.org/library/urllib2.html#examples

 You can still use basic auth with streaming. Does that work for you?
  You
 should use your screenname and password for basic auth.

[twitter-dev] Hi there

2010-09-05 Thread omri 
I have a few questions regarding the streaming API :
How many maximum results I have in one response?
Is there a limit of requests?
Is it possible to make an empty query? - actually, download all the
latest tweets in the system

thanks,
Omri

hi, my name is omri, and I saw the sites :
rowfeeder, booshaka and viralheat.
this sites extract the data from twitter (and facebook) and offer it
to users, i wanted to know is there a way in your API to extract this
data? how do this sites reach this data?
to be more concrete, is there a solution in your api to realize how
many posts there are that include the search word X?

hi,
I think that terrence wanted to know if there is a way to get the
total number of results for a word in one click instead of
downloading14 pages (each page has 100 results...)
is there a place in your API whree you store the total number of
search results
can you add this field to your API?
thanks.

 Hi Terrence,

 if you use the tracking stream, you will get limit notices telling you how 
 manytweetsyou missed (because the stream didn't provide the volume). This 
 should be a way to determine absolute N. Notice that this still means that 
 spamtweetsmight be filtered.
