node-red-node-twitter-API V2.0-public tweets

Node-RED nodes to talk to Twitter.

This is a single node that gets public tweets through Twitter API V 2.0. The Twitter API will NOT deliver 100% of all tweets. This does NOT give access to the Twitter Firehose.

Install

Download the files and copy them into your "node-red-node-twitter" folder. Node-RED user directory - typically ~/.node-red. Remember that you need to overwrite the existing files in the "node-red-node-twitter" folder.

Usage

Provides one node to receive public tweets.

Input

Twitter input node. Can be used to search:

  • all tweets by given keyword

When returning events it sets the msg.payload to the twitter text.

Note: This node is not connected to the FireHose, so will not return 100% of all tweets to a busy @id or #hashtag.

Note: when set to a specific user's tweets, or your direct messages, the node is subject to Twitter's API rate limiting. If you deploy the flows multiple times within a 15 minute window, you may exceed the limit and will see errors from the node. These errors will clear when the current 15 minute window passes.
