Flink Twitter TopN

Find top N hashtags associated with tweets containing specific terms

How do I configure things?

You can just the value for topN and the list of hashtags to extract by modifying:

public static final Integer HASHTAG_LIMIT = 20;
public static final List<String> TagArray = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList("NASA", "Discovery", "Interstellar"));

How to run?

Eventador Project

Use the entrypoint class io.eventador.flinktwitter.FlinkTwitter.

Pass the following parameters:

--consumer_key "YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY" --consumer_secret "YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET" --token "YOUR_TOKEN" --token_secret "YOUR_TOKEN_SECRET" --topic "hashtags" --bootstrap.servers $EVENTADOR_KAFKA_BROKERS

Local Testing

First, you can execute this locally, without using a Flink cluster, by simply editing pom.xml, and update the commandlineArgs section to contain your valid Twitter API keys, and then build and run:

$ mvn clean package
$ mvn exec:java

(You can get new Twitter API keys by visiting https://apps.twitter.com/ and creating a new test application.)

Once you've done that, simply build the JAR with

$ mvn clean package

and then submit it to the cluster by using the script. If it's working, you'll see output both in stdout, and if you have a Kafka endpoint, in the Kafka topic that you've selected.
