[twitter-dev] Background Image & twitteroauth library
Hi Everyone,
I'm attempting to use the twittoauth library by Abraham Williams and
am having a little trouble. I am able to authenticate and get
everything, for the most part, working properly. The only thing I
can't do is get the background image to update.
Function I'm Using in index.php:
$connection->post('account/update_profile_background_image',
array('image' => 'images/cool-blue.jpg'));
index.php is in a root directory and there is a folder called images
with the cool-blue.jpg background in there. The file size is only
215kb.
I'm not sure why it isn't working. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Twitter Search API (boolean operators)

[twitter-dev] TTYtter OAuth public beta
For those who are looking for command line tools to talk to Twitter after the OAuthcalypse, the TTYtter 1.1 public beta is now available. Besides its chief role as a 100% text interactive client, it also can be scripted and passed arguments to serve as a tool in shell scripts and cron jobs. It is xAuth enabled, so it can function in automated browserless environments, and contains its own OAuth, SHA-1/HMAC and JSON implementations built-in. Just add an SSL-enabled cURL; no other Perl libraries needed! For existing applications using TTYtter, 1.1 is designed to be completely upwards compatible with your 1.0-compatible extensions. If you want to try the public beta for your own purposes, visit http://www.floodgap.com/software/ttytter/beta/ -- personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckai...@floodgap.com -- Time is an illusion.

[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter Search API (boolean operators)
Erm, I dont think it is working correctly if using the link below (as
what described in Jonathan's post)
http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%22life+before+death%22+OR+%22palliative+care%22+OR+dying+OR+%22end-of-life+care%22
It only retrieve results that is based on the "dying" keyword. The
other keywords ("life before death", "palliative care") which contain
spaces doesnt return any results. :(

[twitter-dev] oauth and embedded microcontrollers
I have a device that tweets using the API. It is a microcontroller that is hooked to garage doors http://www.toyz.org/GarageBot http://www.toyz.org/images/GarageBot_sm.jpg It is a small box mounted on the wall in the garage as shown in the photo. Unlike a full PC, it has no hard drives and draws very little power. There is no screen or keyboard. All interaction is via the net. Plug it in and it boots and starts doing its thing. You don’t need to think about it. I added LEDs to provide some indication that the device was running. oAuth is a big burden for microcontroller based devices like this - OAuthcalypse will probably simply kill this app. It seems like way too much overhead to push oAuth code into this little chip. oAuth alone would probably exceed all the rest of the application code on the device combined. It's too bad Twitter doesn't provide a way for the user to authorize Basic Auth for their own Twitter ID under certain terms, or some other lightweight Twitter API option. By forcing oAuth, Twitter has substantially raised the bar for API interaction and particularly for embedding Twitter into lightweight devices. Twitter used to be a uniqely lightweight API - not anymore.
[twitter-dev] retweets of retweets
with the new retweet mechanism i can retweet a tweet my friends have retweeted and i believe it shows up as a retweet of that original tweet. but with the old RT @xxx convention for retweeting, i could retweet a retweet like so: RT @ RT @ in that case, does my retweet show up as a retweet of the original tweet or of the retweet i actually retweeted? is it possible to have a chain of retweets?
[twitter-dev] retweets of retweets
the various API calls that return retweets (or retweeters) of tweets -- do those include both the new style retweet and the old RT @ convention?
[twitter-dev] statuses/retweets and paging
how come the statuses/retweets api method doesn't support paging? the statuses/:id/retweeted_by api method does but i'd really rather get the retweet itself.

[twitter-dev] Browser hover over ID sometimes says, "Sorry, this does not appear to be an active Twitter account"
Occasionally, in Firefox 3.6.3 on Linux, when I mouse over a user name, I see that message. It's intermittent - I haven't had any luck trying to reproduce it. The account in question is always an active one - I can click on the screen name and get to the page just fine. I have heard from another user that this also happens on Macs using Safari. I suspect it's getting some kind of error from Twitter and returning that message. Speaking of errors, it also seems like page load times on my blog involving @anywhere interactions, like loading a "follow @znmeb on Twitter" button, have gotten longer. At some point, I plan to load up the Google speed tools and try to find out what's happening. But if there's something happening at the Twitter end, it would be good to get it fixed, because Google now penalizes slow pages in search placement, and that's not a good thing for @anywhere. -- M.

[twitter-dev] Re: Current TwitterOAuth API won't display authorization page
I'm afraid I spoke to soon. Things are not quite working.
I am able to authorize tweeting through the new API, but I am not able
to tweet yet.
When I first tried, I got back a message from this tweet operation:
$to->OAuthRequest( "https://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml";,
array('status' => $expanded_txt, 'POST') );
which said,
Warning: Missing argument 3 for TwitterOAuth::oAuthRequest(),
called in ... and defined in .../twitterOAuth.php on line 178
I looked at the code and concluded that the third parameter should be
NULL. I added that and got this from PHP:
Notice: Array to string conversion in .../OAuth.php on
line 373
and from the tweet call:
Could not authenticate you.
Oauth.php lines 373 says
return strtoupper($this->http_method);
I traced the value in http_method back to the second parameter of
twitterOAuth::oAuthRequest. I saw that instead of returning an array
which contained, among other things, the scalar 'POST', the second
parameter should just be 'POST'.
Accordingly, I changed the call to:
$to->OAuthRequest( "https://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml";,
'POST', NULL );
and got a return value that contained this:
Client must provide a 'status' parameter with a value.
...which makes perfect sense, since the "status" element of the array
contains the text of the tweet!
I'm not sure what's happening here. It appears that one part of the
code requires OAuthRequest's second parameter to be an array, and
another part requires it to be a scalar! I know that can't be so, but
I don't see what it wants. Again, I'm stymied by the lack of API
documentation.

If you want the user to always get prompted use > $connection->getAuthorizeURL($token, FALSE); Thanks. I tried that, and it worked. One more question: how could I have figured this out without asking? The comment block on twitterOAuth::getAuthorizeURL doesn't explain the second parameter at all. I got your twitterOAuth documentation from docs.google.com (I think through a link in the Twitter API Google Group), but it describes the beta code, and I now know that it omits the critical fact that I needed. Also, it's a brief outline of the sequence of API calls -- useful in its own right, but it can't contain the level of detail that I'd need to solve a problem like this one.

[twitter-dev] 401 on token request with Abraham PHP library
Hello, I am using the Abraham Twitter OAuth library with my application. I am seeing a 401 error on the first token request and I would like some help figuring out what I am doing wrong. My application is registered as R/W. I copied my Consumer Key and Secret values to the config.php file. As part of my debugging I did change the authenticateURL() and authorizeURL() values from twitter.com to api.twitter.com, but I don't think I am even getting to those calls.

The green only turns to yellow if latency is below performance thresholds for the entire day.

[twitter-dev] Twitter Search API (boolean operators)
Hello. :) I have several keywords that I would like to search on Twitter. The keywords are "life before death", "palliative care", "dying", "end-of- life care". I have tried to use the boolean operators to form up the search query as stated below. http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=life%20before%20death+OR+palliative%20care+OR+dying+OR+end-of-life%20care (multiple keywords) Firstly, did I build the query string correctly? If yes, I only could retrieve very little results with the query above. If I only include one keyword, which is "life before death", it would return me more results. http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=life%20before%20death (one keyword) I believed that if I use the boolean operators, It would have return me much more results which includes the results of "life before death". Please help me on how should I proceed to retrieve the results from all keywords. Thank You For Your Help :) Best Regards, Anis Year 3 - Student Nanyang Polytechnic, Singapore

Hi Dewald, We have some known performance issues right now as noted in this thread: http://bit.ly/ddp9Mr It's surprising that you're getting 401s, but it might be a particular way an exasperated resource is responding to requests.

[twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors
As well (I know it has been discussed elsewhere), I am consistently seeing API response times in excess of 3 seconds per call. It is actually rare to see one that takes less than 2 seconds. This is on connections from Dallas. But, even using twitter.com in the web browser from Canada is also painfully slow.
[twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors
In fact, the API seems to be really borked at the moment. I've been running more tests on friends_timeline.json, and the following happens: 1) Sometimes the connection is refused. 2) Sometimes I get a 200 OK with an empty JSON array, and seconds later with the very next call on the same Twitter account I get a 200 OK with a fully populated JSON array. 3) On some accounts I get "401 Invalid / expired token", where the token on my side has not changed and the connection is present in the Twitter account's Connections tab.

You can switch over immediately, there's no need to wait until the cutoff date comes around. And yes you will need to create an application, it's just that this particular application will only.

The single token approach can avoid the need for callbacks, so long as you don't need to tweet to other users accounts. -- Glenn Gillen http://glenngillen.com/
[twitter-dev] Intermittent 401 Errors
Since late yesterday (May 10), I've been getting intermittent "401 Could not authenticate you" errors. This is on Twitter accounts and code that have been working for a very long time. My code has not changed, and there is nothing wrong with the Twitter accounts either. They are not suspended, or limited, and the connection for my app is firmly present in the Connections tab. One one call (I've validated this on mentions.json, direct_messages.json, and friends_timeline.json) it would work and give me a 200 with the data. On the very next call I get a 401 Could not authenticate you. There is no discernable pattern. Please don't ask me to capture TCP dumps. This is my live app, and I am not going to mess with it to debug the API.
Re: [twitter-dev] Up to what period will Twitter JSON API will continue to work
For now, search.twitter.com will continue functioning as it does today -- you don't enter credentials of any kind to make use of it and all rate limiting is in respect to your IP address. There is a future where the Search API will properly belong in the api.twitter.com domain, and at that time it will be subject to whatever authentication rules are in place when that transition happens. That might mean it doesn't require authorization of any kind. But it also might mean that for server-to-server operations it may require two-legged OAuth (OAuth without access tokens, meaning the "actor" in the request is your application, not a user using your application), or even full three-legged OAuth. Or one of the OAuth2 profiles. Or all three of these. That future is unclear, but the unification of the Search API and the standard Twitter REST API is a sure thing, with many benefits in store.

Re: [twitter-dev] Issues using xAuth on IPhone
Cameron is right, you should be using HTTPS. xAuth requests (and all the oauth endpoints for token negotiation) won't work with the API console as it's for making resource requests with access tokens -- not requests to retrieve access tokens.. Make sure that the following is true when using xAuth: * You are using POST * You are using SSL * Your xAuth parameters are the ONLY parameters in your POST body * You're setting a Content-Type header of "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" * Your xAuth parameters are properly part of your signature base string, where they will appear at the end of the signature base string in alphabetical order * You're using HTTP header-based OAuth -- not attaching OAuth parameters to the URL or POST body * You're HTTP Authorization header should only have oauth_* parameters in it, not any of the xauth parameters Given all these conditions, and enabled xAuth access, xAuth should work for you.

Re: [twitter-dev] User Streaming API development status
I think the general plan outlined in the announcement is still accurate. Beta test in Q2, launch in Q3. So, months. We still have a few features to launch -- they are detailed in the announcement, some back-end infrastructure to build, and some scale-testing to do. We also need the servers. Note: If your application is not a desktop app, it's not going to be eligible for this first beta due to capacity constraints. -John Kalucki http://twitter.com/jkalucki Infrastructure, Twitter Inc.

Re: [twitter-dev] How would I get remaing hits using OAuth.
Hi Abraham,
Thank you for your reply. Now I am getting rate limit status using OAuth
(new version). Now moving towards main problem.
As my app(uses rest api) provides user his followers info filtering spam
ones which needs lot of calls so I white listed two accounts.Suppose a user
has more than a million of followers then it breaks operation as sometimes
more than 20k hits are required.
What I am doing? -> Through coding I'm checking rate limit status, if
it is available move further otherwise give user-defined error. As I am
using Abraham's code on github , I got rate limit status, but in coding, it
is not possible to enter username and password in twitter's authentication
window, as we are not authenticating from user side.(we will be
authenticating white listed accounts in back end side).So can I pass
username and password of these white listed account and get them
authenticated from twitter(instead of showing authentication window) and get
their rate limit status using Abraham's code.
In short, I need each of above white listed a/c 's rate limit status so
instead of authentication window, how can I get these white listed accounts
authenticated from twitter.
Please suggest me the way to deal with this problem. Because my whole
application is ready, just stopped on this.
Waiting for reply eagerly,
Thank you in advance.

John, I know you guys are busy, understaffed on the Streaming API team, etc. But, I'm developing an app that really could benefit a lot from this new API, and it is very near beta launch. Could you give us some sort of idea of what the current status is, what hurdles you guys still have to overcome, and some sort of rough idea of how long it would be? Are we talking days, weeks, or months out? Thanks! Jonathon Hill Company52 @compwright
[twitter-dev] Re: can't post same message more than 1 time Getting error: The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.
Twitter uses this error not only for stuff that you would excpet to be forbidden, but als for other actions that are probably unintended. Other examples are favoriting a tweet you already favorited, trying to follow a user you're already following, etc. The error is usually also accompanied by an error message, which will tell you why you are getting the error.

[twitter-dev] website and OAuth
i have a quick question and dont shoot me down as im a bit confused, i currently run a website that has a custom CMS now i have integrated twitter into this CMS so when ever a new blog is added by one of the users it updates this to twitter, at the moment im using a twitter class that i found on a PHP site that does the trick, to communicate with twitter it send the username and password over. now from my understanding i need to change this over to start using OAuth is this correct? the system does it all back end so my bloggers dont write anything it auto does it for you, it posts to the one single twitter account. now do i need to change to OAuth to get this to run when the date finally comes around, if so do i need to create an application? as it isnt really an application as such, this is the bit that confuses me a bit. so i guess the question is do i need to change to oAuth and should i create an application if so would i need to create a callback URL as there wont be any callbacks as such would there as i would only be posting to my twitter feed. thanks in advance for all your help Dan

As Twitter is going to stop basic Authentication. My question is Does Twitter also going to stop Twitter JSON API (http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=) Does it comes under basic Authentication module i am not clear about it
RE: [twitter-dev] How would I get remaing hits using OAuth.
I've done some code updating for the project I am working on. I changed the
URL of accessing the rate limit and I'm still being returned with the 150/hr
rate limit.
[ 06:18:31 am | 241005.11 ] [ @Worf ]
TWITTER:URL(http://api.twitter.com/1/account/rate_limit_status.json)
[ 06:18:31 am | 241005.11 ] [ @Worf ] Status: All good, 142/150 requests
left, Resets: 6:40 AM
Running curl on the same URL:

As abraham pointed out you should use https://api.twitter.com/1/ to get
350/hr limit else it will be 150 (even for oauth)

It also looks like you are using an older version of TwitterOAuth. The
newest version uses https://api.twitter.com/1/ as the host which gives you a
rate limit of 350/hour instead of 150/hour.
To get the rate_limit_status in the newest version call
$connection->get('account/rate_limit_status');

[twitter-dev] Re: Slow response to twitter updates for a third party app

The balance of the day should be OK. At Warblecamp on the weekend someone (@mario) mentioned it would be nice have a means of identifying (or at least being aware of) these sorts of issues. And given the size of twitter these days and the considerable usage of the API, there are so many variables that can impact on performance differently for every user that it can be difficult to know if a problem is isolated to your code or is affecting a wide population. So floating an idea to promote some further discussion and see if there is any interest, obvious issues with the approach, input, etc. Would it be worthwhile having an independent service that allowed developers to programmatically log their current API performance and issues? For those that use Rails I'm thinking something along the lines of rpm.newrelic but specifically twitter focussed. It could post any 5xx error responses as they occur and regularly ping details about the process usage (CPU utilization, RAM, etc.). In isolation they're not very useful stats, in aggregation they'd help identify specific areas suffering problems like "80% of our users in The Netherlands are currently experiencing severe latency issues" or system wide issues like a particular call failing, So would it be of any use? I'm not a consumer of the API anywhere near the scale of Twitterfeed and so I don't currently see the same requirement for such a service, I'm more inclined to believe if I have a problem it's almost always mine to deal with. The great thing about services like rpm.newrelic and hoptoad is that they give you actionable information, and while I think this would be an interesting technical challenge I wonder if it's actually providing users anything actionable.

RE: [twitter-dev] How would I get remaing hits using OAuth.
I was reading on this, I currently have an application that I'll be working
on converting to OAuth from Basic Auth. My question is, is the Basic Auth
method still limited to 150/hr rate limit? I ask because that is what my app
currently returns when I send a request to account/rate_limit_status.
