Andrew Davidson created SPARK-13065:
---------------------------------------
Summary: streaming-twitter pass twitter4j.FilterQuery argument to
TwitterUtils.createStream()
Key: SPARK-13065
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-13065
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Streaming
Affects Versions: 1.6.0
Environment: all
Reporter: Andrew Davidson
Priority: Minor
The twitter stream api is very powerful provides a lot of support for
twitter.com side filtering of status objects. When ever possible we want to let
twitter do as much work as possible for us.
currently the spark twitter api only allows you to configure a small sub set of
possible filters
String{} filters = {"tag1", tag2"}
JavaDStream<Status> tweets =TwitterUtils.createStream(ssc, twitterAuth,
filters);
The current implemenation does
private[streaming]
class TwitterReceiver(
twitterAuth: Authorization,
filters: Seq[String],
storageLevel: StorageLevel
) extends Receiver[Status](storageLevel) with Logging {
. . .
val query = new FilterQuery
if (filters.size > 0) {
query.track(filters.mkString(","))
newTwitterStream.filter(query)
} else {
newTwitterStream.sample()
}
...
rather than construct the FilterQuery object in TwitterReceiver.onStart(). we
should be able to pass a FilterQueryObject
looks like an easy fix. See source code links bellow
kind regards
Andy
