 API)


I built and run twitfave - thanks for mentioning it ! We do actually offer
an knocked-together API, see http://twitfave.com/home/about/api - I'm very
keen to improve that though, as I'm basically serialising the django objects
that I'd be sending to views and throwing them straight to the web (hey,
this is a one person project in my spare time ;) ).  Feedback is very much
appreciated.

Note especially the section about Timeliness - obviously there's only so
much information we can crawl from Twitter, and so we prioritise 1) people
who score highly in the apps scoring index and 2) followers of people who
follow the twitfave user.  (As a side note, I'd still love a firehose of all
favouriting activity, but I've mentioned that to Doug and Alex, and it's
understandably not high on their priority list currently).

Ed,
I'd love to see some apps crop up that display favorite content in
interested ways. Can you create an issue?

 That is, given this tweet: https://twitter.com/epc/status/1500168995
 which I’ve favorited with another account (@artificllc), is there a
 way to determine that it's been favorited, either by the author of the
 tweet (@epc) or by any other authenticated user?

 My checks with the API seem to indicate that @artificllc will get
 favoritedtrue/favorited when retrieving that tweet, but @epc and
 any other id will receive favoritedfalse/favorited.

 The API seems geared to showing what tweets a given user has marked as
 favorites, but there doesn't appear to be a way to see which of a
 user's tweets have been marked as favorites by others.  Should I open
 an issue?

Yeah, the API could be a more helpful in that regard.

Here are some services I've seen related to this subject if you want
to check them out.
