node-red-node-twitter
Node-RED nodes to talk to Twitter.
The Twitter API will NOT deliver 100% of all tweets. This does NOT give access to the Twitter Firehose.
Tweets of who you follow will include their retweets and favourites.
Install
Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically ~/.node-red
npm install node-red-node-twitter
Usage
Provides two nodes - one to receive messages, and one to send.
Input
Twitter input node. Can be used to search either:
- the public or a user's stream for tweets containing the configured search term
- all tweets by specific users
- direct messages received by the authenticated user
Use space for and, and comma , for or when searching for multiple terms.
Sets the msg.topic
to tweets/ and then appends the senders screen name.
Sets msg.location
to the tweeters location if known.
When returning events it sets the msg.payload
to the twitter event, a full list is documented by
Twitter.
Sets msg.tweet
to the full tweet object as documented by Twitter.
Note: This node is not connected to the FireHose, so will not return 100% of all tweets to a busy @id or #hashtag.
Sets msg.tweet
to the full tweet object as documented by Twitter.
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.
Output
Tweets the msg.payload
.
To send a Direct Message (DM) - use a payload like.
D {username} {message}
If msg.media
exists and is a Buffer object, this node will treat it as an image and attach it to the tweet.
If msg.params
exists and is an object of name:value pairs, this node will treat it as parameters for the update request.
