Connect to Gnip streaming API and manage rules. You must have a Gnip account with any data source available, like Twitter Power Track.
Currenly, this module only supports JSON activity stream format, so you must enable data normalization in your admin panel.
This class is an EventEmitter and allows you to connect to the stream and start receiving data.
timeoutAs requested in the Gnip docs (http://support.gnip.com/apis/powertrack/api_reference.html), this option in the constructor allows us to set a read timeout in the client. The recommended value is >=30 seconds, so the constructor will throw an error if a smaller timeout is provided. The default value for this option is 35 seconds.backfillMinutesNumber of minutes to backfill after connecting to the stream. Optional. Value should be 0 - 5.partitionPartition of the Firehose stream you want to connect to. Only required for Firehose streams.parserParser library for incoming JSON data. Optional, but defaults to the excellent json-bigint library.
Matching tag IDs are sent to us as big integers which can't be reliably parsed by the native JSON library in Node.js. More info on this issue can be found at StackOverflow
-
start()Connect to the stream and start receiving data. At this point you should have registered at least one event listener for any of these events: 'data', 'object' or 'tweet'. -
end()Terminates the connection.
readyEmitted when the connection has been successfully establisheddataEmitted for each data chunk (decompressed)errorEmitted when any type of error occurs. An error is raised if the response status code is not 20x. {error: String} objects are also checked here.objectEmitted for each JSON object.tweetEmitted for each tweet.deleteEmitted for each deleted tweet.endEmitted when the connection is terminated. This event is always emitted when an error occurs and the connection is closed.
This class allows you to manage an unlimited number of tracking rules.
userGNIP account username.passwordGNIP account password.urlGNIP Rules endpoint url e.g.https://gnip-api.twitter.com/rules/${streamType}/accounts/${account}/publishers/twitter/${label}.jsonbatchSizeThe batch size used when adding/deleting rules in bulk. (Defaults to 5000)parserMuch like theparseroption allowed in the Gnip Stream constructor, you can pass a custom parser handler/library for incoming JSON data. This is optional, and defaults to the json-bigint library. More details.cacheFileInternallyGnip.Rulesuses a file for caching the current state of the rules configuration, the default path is in the directory of the package. This optional configuration allows you to change the path as the default one may cause problems in applications wherenode_modulesis in a read-only filesystems (e.g. AWS Lambda).
-
getAll(callback)Get cached rules. -
update(rules: Array, callback)Creates or replaces the live tracking rules.
Rules are sent in batches ofoptions.batchSize, so you can pass an unlimited number of rules.
The current tracking rules are stored in a local JSON file so you can update the existing rules efficiently without having to remove them all. The callback receives an object as the 2nd argument and contains the number of added and deleted rules. -
clearCache(callback)Clears cached rules.
The following methods uses Gnip API directly and ignores the local cache. Avoid usage if you are working with too many rules!
live.update(rules: Array, callback)live.add(rules: Array, callback)live.remove(rules: Array, callback)live.getAll(callback)live.getByIds(ids: Array, callback)live.removeAll(callback)
This class is an EventEmitter and allows you to connect to either the 30 day or full archive search API and start receiving data.
userGNIP account username.passwordGNIP account password.urlGNIP Search endpoint url e.g.https://gnip-api.twitter.com/search/30day/accounts/{ACCOUNT_NAME}/{LABEL}.jsonqueryRule to match tweets.fromDateThe oldest date from which tweets will be gathered. Date given in the format 'YYYYMMDDHHMM'. Optional.toDateThe most recent date to which tweets will be gathered. Date given in the format 'YYYYMMDDHHMM'. Optional.maxResultsThe maximum number of search results to be returned by a request. A number between 10 and 500. Optional.tagUsed to segregate rules and their matching data into different logical groups. Optional.bucketThe unit of time for which count data will be provided. Options: "day", "hour", "minute". Optional, for /counts calls.rateLimiterA limiter object, used to control the rate of collection. Optional. If unspecified, a rate limit of 30 requests a minute will be shared between Search streams. If you have a non-standard rate limit, you should pass this parameter.
const RateLimiter = require('limiter').RateLimiter;
// Allow 60 requests per minute
const limiter = new RateLimiter(60, 'minute');
const stream = new Gnip.Search({
rateLimiter : limiter,
...
});-
start()Start receiving data. At this point you should have registered at least one event listener for 'object' or 'tweet'. -
end()Terminates the connection.
readyEmitted when tweets have started to be collected.errorEmitted when a recoverable (non fatal) error occurs.objectEmitted for each JSON object.tweetEmitted for each tweet.endEmitted when the connection is terminated. If the stream has ended due to a fatal error, the error object will be passed.
This class allows you to track activity consumption across Gnip products.
