Stream twitter searches using the public API.
Project Description
Overview
birding
is an open source project to produce a stream of recent twitter
activity based on a sequence of search terms, using only twitter’s public
APIs. It serves as both a standalone project and a demo of distributed
real-time computing with Python using Storm/streamparse and Kafka/pykafka.
Dependencies are fully automated; in a birding checkout, run with:
make run
See the docs (below) for a full discussion of birding, including how to use birding in an existing streamparse project.
