[twitter-dev] Looking for Java class/package for Firehose

2010-09-30 Thread D. Smith
Hello there!
I am pretty experienced with using PHP for Twitter, but now I want to
use firehose and Java seems to be a much better fit because of
'Threads', so I can listen to Firehose the pass a job to a thread and
return right away. PHP cannot do that, well, maybe to some crazy hacks
that I am not too impressed with.

Anyway, can someone recommend a good Java client that does that,
ideally where I can just extend the class to write my own runnable
classes.

thanks a lot.

While it's in Scala, not Java, I've heard good things about
@alejandrocrosa's Scala-TwitterStreamer :
http://github.com/acrosa/Scala-TwitterStreamer -- you should be able
to make use of it fairly easily in a Java environment.

We'd love to start collecting libraries built around the Streaming API.

Regardless of language, does anyone have libraries to share with everyone?

I've used the Perl AnyEvent::Twitter::Stream CPAN module and the Ruby  
tweetstream gem. Both of them work just fine, although I think the  
error handling in the Perl one may have a glitch. The Perl one is  
lighter on both CPU and RAM use, but that's the nature of Perl vs.  
Ruby, not something in the library codes themselves.


I don't know if either of them has been updated to work with the  
official User Streams endpoint yet - last time I looked at User  
Streams, I used cURL from the command line.


I'll probably get back to my User Streams project next week - I've  
been pushing to get my appliances in shape for the SUSE Disters  
contest entry deadline, which is tomorrow. ;-)


And yes, I'd still like the option to get spritzer data in User  
Streams without having to open another connection. But I'm probably  
the only one. ;-)
