[twitter-dev] twurl with streaming API?

2010-12-26 Thread dcheckoway
After authorizing with twurl I tried this:

$ twurl -t -H stream.twitter.com /1/statuses/sample.json
opening connection to stream.twitter.com...

...and it just sits there.  Anybody know if there's a way to use twurl
with the streaming API?

I can use curl no problem with basic auth, but that's pretty lame and
short-lived.  It would be nice if twurl supported the streaming API.
If it does, can you clue me in?

Thanks,
Dan

Hi Dan,

The Track/Sample Streaming API doesn't support SSL which twurl enables by
default. You need to instruct twurl to not use SSL when making requests. For
example:
twurl --no-ssl -t -H stream.twitter.com /1/statuses/sample.json

This is ok for testing and debugging but you want to look at something like
twitter4j or phirehose as a programatic way to consume the Streaming API.

Matt,

Thanks for the --no-ssl trick, much appreciated!  That was staring me right
in the face with the --help output and I still managed not to see it.

No worries, I'm only trying to use twurl for a test.  We do use twitter4j
for live firehose access.

Thanks,
Dan
