mjrusso / tweet-freq

A simple tweet frequency counter, in Clojure.

tweet-freq

A simple Clojure program that outputs the number of tweets published to your timeline by users that you follow. (The output is the number of tweets per user, considered over a period of the last 800 tweets published to your timeline.)

Twitter's statuses/home-timeline resource is used to access tweet data. (Twitter limits the number of tweets that can be obtained using this resource to 800.)

Usage

Note: Requires Leiningen 2.

Edit make-oauth-creds in ./src/tweet_freq/core.clj with the the requisite OAuth details (*app-consumer-key*, *app-consumer-secret*, *user-access-token*, *user-access-token-secret*). Note: you will need to create a new Twitter app (or use an existing app). See all of your Twitter apps (or create a new one) at https://dev.twitter.com/apps.

Install dependencies:

$ lein deps

Run tests:

$ lein midje

Run program:

$ lein run

The output will be a table, in the following format:

===========================
Username        | Frequency
===========================

mathewi         | 42
