401 when streaming. Oauth_timestamp?

[muffinista]

Hey, can you give me an idea of exactly when this happens? Also, does it happen consistently, etc? And a full backtrace might be helpful. Thanks!

[Corstiaan84]

Hey, yes it happens consistently. Here's the trace: https://gist.github.com/Corstiaan84/c70324d47c9fb129a512

Thanks!

Sorry for the delay. Are you able to post the code for your bot, with credentials/etc removed? If you want you can email it to me -- colin at muffinlabs dot com

I'm experiencing the same error when using the Streaming API:

2016-01-07T18:52:00.540179+00:00 app[worker.1]:     from /app/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/chatterbot-1.0.1/lib/chatterbot/streaming.rb:23:in `do_streaming'
2016-01-07T18:52:00.540199+00:00 app[worker.1]: /app/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/twitter-5.14.0/lib/twitter/rest/response/raise_error.rb:15:in `on_complete': Could not authenticate you. (Twitter::Error::Unauthorized)

(rest of the trace here: https://gist.github.com/wr/e787cf8ee4c08972c7bb)

Happens consistently – but chatterbot works fine when using the non-streaming APIs with the exact same credentials.

Using the sample code here:

#
# run a search
#
streaming(endpoint:"search") do
    search("Streaming API") do |tweet|
      puts tweet.text
    end
end

[muffinista]

OK, I think you might need to try this:

streaming(endpoint: :filter) do
  search("Streaming API") do |tweet|
    puts tweet.text
  end
end

(note the different endpoint).

This functionality has changed a bit in the next version of the gem but I haven't released a new version quite yet, but you can also try running against the master branch of git if that's an option for you.

@muffinista, your solutions seems to work :-).

However, when running this:

streaming(endpoint: :filter) do
    search("obama") do |tweet|
      puts tweet.text
    end
end

this is the output of the stream:

Is is correct that I am not see the text of every tweet?

[wr]

seems to work for me as well :)

[muffinista]

There's a few possibilities here:

• I think this version chatterbot skips retweets by default, but it will instantiate the tweet before deciding to reject it
• If you have a blacklist in place, those tweets will also be instantiated but skipped.

If it seems like something else, let me know, but probably under a new issue, since I think we solved this one. Thanks!

[Corstiaan84]

Seems legit :-)
