Twitter Stream API to get users tweets

Question

I am using twitter stream API to get tweets from user. I have list of user Id How would i get list of tweets from the TwitterStream API. I have analyzed the following sample

public class TwitterStreamAPI {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        ConfigurationBuilder cb = new ConfigurationBuilder();
        cb.setDebugEnabled(true);
        cb.setOAuthConsumerKey("xxxx");
        cb.setOAuthConsumerSecret("xxx");
        cb.setOAuthAccessToken("xxx");
        cb.setOAuthAccessTokenSecret("xxx");

        TwitterStream twitterStream = new TwitterStreamFactory(cb.build()).getInstance();

        UserStreamListener listener = new UserStreamListener() {
            @Override
            public void onStatus(Status status) {
                System.out.println("onStatus @" + status.getUser().getScreenName() + " - " + status.getText());
            }

            @Override
            public void onDeletionNotice(StatusDeletionNotice statusDeletionNotice) {
                //System.out.println("Got a status deletion notice id:" + statusDeletionNotice.getStatusId());
            }

            @Override

but it does not print status

Answer 1

The streaming apis provide you with real-time events therefore if none of the users Tweet during the time you are listening you will not see any output.

If you are instead trying to fetch a users historic tweets consider using Twitter#getUserTimeline(screenName) instead, eg:

final Twitter twitter = new TwitterFactory().getInstance();
final List<Status> statuses = twitter.getUserTimeline(screenName);

for (Status status : statuses) {
    System.out.println("@" + status.getUser().getScreenName() + " - " + status.getText());
}

See this example for further details.

Answer 2

I have answered the same in detail here . Please do check it. This will show you how we can read and update twitter using required access tokens.

in brief, These are the steps

1. Crate a Twitter application on https://apps.twitter.com/app/new and get your consumer key. (Follow the mentioned blog if you struck somewhere.)
2. Using the Twitter4j API get the authorization URL, hit it and get the PIN. (The code required is mentioned below for your ref)
3. Input the pin and get access tocken (refer below code)
4. That's all now we can read or update twitter feeds. (Based on the access level you set while creating twitter application)
