A browsable, searchable and easily customizable archive and backup for your tweets

This is Tweet Nest

Tweet Nest is a browsable, searchable and easily customizable archive and backup for your tweets, made in PHP. It runs on a web server.

It requires the following:

• PHP 5.2 or higher with cURL enabled (or 5.1 with the PECL JSON module installed in addition)
• MySQL 4.1 or higher

To figure out how to install it, please point your browser to:

And go to the "Installation" section.

Thanks!

Twitter archive import

• Place your downloaded json archive files (data/js/tweets/[year]_[month].js) directly in the archive folder (archive/[year]_[month].js)
• On new tweet nest setups:
  • follow the tweet nest instructions from http://pongsocket.com/tweetnest/#installation
  • right after the maintenance/loaduser.php step, run maintenance/loadarchive.php
• On existing instances:
  • be sure not to overwrite your inc/config.php or you will have to setup your instance again
  • run upgrade.php
  • run maintenance/loadarchive.php

The importer keeps track of its progress in maintenance/loadarchivelog.txt if it's writable. Should the script die for some reason (php time limit e.g.), just run it again.

If you have a large archive (10k+ tweets), I would recommend to do the one-time import via cli (php -f maintenance/loadarchive.php)
