TwitterComponent:
The twitter component can be configured with the Twitter account settings which is mandatory to configure before using.
You can also configure these options directly in the endpoint.
Option | Description |
---|---|
consumerKey | The consumer key |
consumerSecret | The consumer secret |
accessToken | The access token |
accessTokenSecret | The access token secret |
Consumer Endpoints:
Rather than the endpoints returning a List through one single route exchange, camel-twitter creates one route exchange per returned object. As an example, if "timeline/home" results in five statuses, the route will be executed five times (one for each Status).

Message body
All message bodies utilize objects provided by the Twitter4J API.
Use cases
Tip | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Twitter REST APIs encapsulated by Twitter4J are subjected to API Rate Limiting. You can find the per method limits in the API Rate Limits documentation. Note that endpoints/resources not listed in that page are default to 15 requests per allotted user per window. |
To create a status update within your Twitter profile, send this producer a String body.
Code Block |
---|
from("direct:foo") .to(" streaming/filter | {info:title=Note} Options: (* = required). {info} h3. Message body {code} All message bodies utilize objects provided by the Twitter4J API. {code} h3. Maven Dependency: {code:xml} <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId> <artifactId>camel-twitter</artifactId> <version>${camel-version}</version> </dependency> {code} h3. Use cases h4. To create a status update within your Twitter profile, send this producer a String body. {code} twitter://timeline/user?consumerKey=[s]&consumerSecret=[s]&accessToken=[s]&accessTokenSecret=[s] {code} h4. To ); |
To poll,
...
every
...
60 sec.,
...
all
...
statuses
...
on
...
your
...
home
...
timeline:
Code Block |
---|
from(" {code} twitter://timeline/home?type=polling&delay=560&consumerKey=[s]&consumerSecret=[s]&accessToken=[s]&accessTokenSecret=[s] {code} h4. To search for all statuses with the keyword ") .to("bean:blah"); |
To search for all statuses with the keyword 'camel':
Code Block |
---|
from(" {code} twitter://search?type=direct&keywords=camel&consumerKey=[s]&consumerSecret=[s]&accessToken=[s]&accessTokenSecret=[s] {code} {include:Endpoint See Also}") .to("bean:blah"); |
Searching using a producer with static keywords
Code Block |
---|
from("direct:foo")
.to("twitter://search?keywords=camel&consumerKey=[s]&consumerSecret=[s]&accessToken=[s]&accessTokenSecret=[s]");
|
Searching using a producer with dynamic keywords from header
In the bar header we have the keywords we want to search, so we can assign this value to the CamelTwitterKeywords
header.
Code Block |
---|
from("direct:foo")
.setHeader("CamelTwitterKeywords", header("bar"))
.to("twitter://search?consumerKey=[s]&consumerSecret=[s]&accessToken=[s]&accessTokenSecret=[s]");
