Search Twitter for tweets with music and publish events to Splunk

Code Block
languagejava

      from("twitter://search?type=polling&keywords=music&delay=10&consumerKey=abc&consumerSecret=def&accessToken=hij&accessTokenSecret=xxx")

Code Block
languagejava

@Converter
public class Tweet2SplunkEvent {
    @Converter
    public static SplunkEvent convertTweet(Status status) {
        SplunkEvent data = new SplunkEvent("twitter-message", null);
        //data.addPair("source", status.getSource());
        data.addPair("from_user", status.getUser().getScreenName());
        data.addPair("in_reply_to", status.getInReplyToScreenName());
        data.addPair(SplunkEvent.COMMON_START_TIME, status.getCreatedAt());
        data.addPair(SplunkEvent.COMMON_EVENT_ID, status.getId());
        data.addPair("text", status.getText());
        data.addPair("retweet_count", status.getRetweetCount());
        if (status.getPlace() != null) {
            data.addPair("place_country", status.getPlace().getCountry());
            data.addPair("place_name", status.getPlace().getName());
            data.addPair("place_street", status.getPlace().getStreetAddress());
        }
        if (status.getGeoLocation() != null) {
            data.addPair("geo_latitude", status.getGeoLocation().getLatitude());
            data.addPair("geo_longitude", status.getGeoLocation().getLongitude());
        }
        return data;
    }
}
