FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package phirehose
Phirehose
A PHP interface to the Twitter Streaming API (firehose, etc). This library makes it easy to connect to and consume the Twitter stream via the Streaming API.
See:
Goals
- Provide a simple interface to the Twitter Streaming API for PHP applications
- Comply to Streaming API recommendations for error handling, reconnection, etc
- Encourage well-behaved streaming API clients
- Operate independently of PHP extensions (ie: shared memory, PCNTL, etc)
This library does:
- Handles connection/authentication to the twitter streaming API
- Consumes the stream handing off each status to be enqueued by a method of your choice
- Handles graceful reconnection/back-off on connection and API errors
- Monitors/reports performance metrics and errors
This library does NOT:
- Decode/process tweets
- Provide any sort of queueing mechanism for asynchronous processing (though some examples are included)
- Provide any sort of inter-process communication
- Provide any non-streaming API functionality (ie: user profile info, search, etc)
How To Use
See the example subdirectory for example usage. In each example file you will need to insert your own oauth token/secret, and the key/secret for the Twitter app you have created.
- filter-oauth.php shows how to follow certain keywords.
- sample.php shows how to get a small random sample of all public statuses.
- userstream-alternative.php shows how to get user streams. (All activity for one user.)
- sitestream.php shows to how to get site streams. (All activity for multiple users.)
Please see the wiki for documentation.
Known Issues
- After upgrading to PHP 5.6.8, Phirehose causes CPU spikes. To fix, upgrade to PHP 5.6.9 (#83).
