Twitter Consumer

Searches twitter specified movie name and writes related tweets to Kafka.

Packaging and deployment

Once you execute mvn clean package or mvn clean verify, you can find a tar.gz archive in target/ directory. The archive contains everything what is needed to run the tool.

Execution and configuration

application.conf configuration file is located inside tar.gz archive. It expects a number of environment variables, such as Twitter access tokens and keys.

Execution example:

export TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY="..."
export TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET="..."
export TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN="..."
export TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET="..."

bash ./twitter-consumer-runner.sh \
  --movie="Star Wars" \              # movie name
  --search-since="2016-12-31"        # date since which to fetch historical tweets (default is today)

Take a look at application.conf file content for complete options list.

Integration testing

mvn clean verify

Tests use embedded Kafka.
