i want to show public contents from instagram related to a specific hashtag (everything works fine with that) but i can't to renew the access_token everytime it expires.
("do not assume your access_token is valid forever." -
https://www.instagram.com/developer/authentication/)
To renew it manually is not an option i have to make sure there is a valid access_token at ANY time without re-authenticating.
Any ideas or questions? :)
I have one idea, but without API (and access_token). You can make requests to the web-version of Instagram with ?__a=1 parameter. I do not know how long it will work but now there is workflow:
You want to show public content with hashtag space, for example.
Add it to url and add GET-parameter ?__a=1: https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/space/?__a=1
Make the GET-request. It returns json with nodes in top_posts (8) and media (18). Each node has owner, caption, number of comments and likes. But the most important part is in thumbnail_src and display_src.
There is page_info in media object which helps to paginate results. You need end_cursor (for example, J0HWE9rjAAAAF0HWE9qvgAAAFiYA)
Add the value from end_cursor to the url: https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/space/?__a=1&max_id=J0HWE9rjAAAAF0HWE9qvgAAAFiYA
Repeat 3-6 to get newest posts with specific hashtag.
Update to the ?__a=1 url param. This appears to have stopped working with users '/account/?__a=1' endpoints.:( Still works on tags apparently.
Instagram shut down their public API. Here's a quick and dirty workaround in PHP:
<?php
function getPublicInfo($username) {
$url = sprintf("https://www.instagram.com/$username");
$content = file_get_contents($url);
$content = explode("window._sharedData = ", $content)[1];
$content = explode(";</script>", $content)[0];
$data = json_decode($content, true);
return $data['entry_data']['ProfilePage'][0];
}
Not sure for how long it's gonna work. Here's one for Javascript.
I am using Zend's gdata library for the Google Apps provisioning API. Since Zend doesn't yet support fetching org users (no retrieve function provided by the library for this feed), I am making a custom gdata query to the url (as suggested in the documentation developers.google.com/google-apps/provisioning/#retrieving_organization_users_experimental):
apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/orguser/2.0/'.$customerId.'?get=all
This works well for <= 100 users.
Now, I have created a domain with 125 users across 5 OUs. When I fetch the above URI, I get the 1st 100 users (as documented and expected). However, I could not find the pagination link mentioned here: developers.google.com/google-apps/provisioning/reference#Results_Pagination
Here's the start of my orguser feed:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><feed xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom' xmlns:openSearch='http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearchrss/1.0/' xmlns:apps='http://schemas.google.com/apps/2006'><id>https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/orguser/2.0/C00xxxxxxx</id><updated>2013-01-06T08:17:43.520Z</updated><**link rel='next' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/orguser/2.0/C00xxxxxxx?get=all&startKey=RASS03jtnz0s2orxmbn.**'/><link rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#feed' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/orguser/2.0/C00xxxxx'/>
I tried the https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/orguser/2.0/C00xxxxxxx?get=all&startKey=RASS03jtnz0s2orxmbn. link but it gives me the exact same 100 users that the https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/orguser/2.0/C00xxxxxxx?get=all link gives. This is the only occurrence of the word "next" in my feed and so there is not other URI I can try to fetch the next 25 users.
So I have only been able to get 100 users from this API call. How do I go about fetching the next 25 users? Examples/code would be really appreciated. Or what am I doing wrong?
Please help - this is blocking an urgent delivery.
Thanks!,
Vinay.
Your 2nd request should look like:
https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/orguser/2.0/C00xxxxxx?startKey=RASS03jtnz0s2orxmbn&get=all
startKey should be set to the value of the next parameter and get should continue to be all for each page request.
Also, make sure the URL is decoded, if & is encoded as & in the request, then Google's servers will see all of all&startKey=RASS03jtnz0s2orxmbn as the value of get and it won't see a startKey parameter at all.
I know how to get trends using API, but i want it by country and top 10.
How can I ? Is that possible?
Tried this one but not working
http://api.twitter.com/1/trends/current.json?count=50
Note that Twitter API v1 is no longer functional. Read announcement
So you should use Twitter API 1.1.
REST method is this: GET trends/place
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/trends/place
You should authenticate with access tokens to reach this data.
Yes, you can.
First, figure out which countries you want to get data for.
Calling
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/trends/available
Will give you a list of all the countries Twitter has trends for.
Suppose you want the trends for the UK. The above tells us that the WOEID is 23424975.
To get the top ten trends for the UK, call
https://api.twitter.com/1/trends/23424975.json
you need to figure out the woeids first use this tool here http://sigizmund.info/woeidinfo/ and then it becomes as easy as a simple function
function get_trends($woeid){
return json_decode(file_get_contents("http://api.twitter.com/1/trends/".$woeid.".json?exclude=hashtags", true), false);
}
Here you go, I wrote a simple sample script for you. Check It Out Here Twitter Trends Getter
Hope it helps!
I'm a 'bit' late to the party on this one but you can use:
npm i twit --save
then,
const Twit = require('twit');
const config = require('./config');
const T = new Twit(config);
const params = {
id: '23424829',
id: '23424975',
id: '23424977'
// count: 3
};
T.get('trends/place', params, gotData, limit);
function gotData(err, data, response) {
var tweets = data;
console.log(JSON.stringify(tweets, undefined, 2));
}
You have to Complete Authentication using Api Key to Fetch Results in JSON.
Another Thing Keep in Mind Twitter Api is Limited.
If you are Making Website for Top Twitter Trends then Visit this Url https://twitter-trends.vlivetricks.com/, Right Click >> Copy Source Code and Replace only Trends Name using Your Json Variable.
I am developing a mobile app using HTML5 + PhoneGap (there's not ANY backend server side).
I'm using OAuthSimple Library to sign in but I can't get the last step to get the access_token. Did anybody used this library and got it ? Can you give me a code sample?
I've red the following doc but it was not helpful al all:
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/auth/oauth#Acquiring_a_request_token
Thks!
Hi guys thanks for your comments. I've figured out this issue. I was not doing a good sign. Once I've completed the authorization step, I've used the new auth token and it's working now. Next I'll paste you an extract of code with the solution: var signed = Oauth.sign({ action: "GET", path: accessTokenUrl, method:'HMAC-SHA1', parameters: { oauth_verifier: pin /* obtained by the user / }, signatures: requestTokenResponse / once it's authorized */ });
I looked through the API documentation but couldn't find it. It would be nice to grab that number to see how popular a url is. Engadget uses the twitter share button on articles if you're looking for an example. I'm attempting to do this through javascript. Any help is appreciated.
You can use the following API endpoint,
http://cdn.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=http://stackoverflow.com
Note that the http://urls.api.twitter.com/ endpoint is not public.)
The endpoint will return a JSON string similar to,
{"count":27438,"url":"http:\/\/stackoverflow.com\/"}
On the client, if you are making a request to get the URL share count for your own domain (the one the script is running from), then an AJAX request will work (e.g. jQuery.getJSON). Otherwise, issue a JSONP request by appending callback=?:
jQuery.getJSON('https://cdn.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=http://stackoverflow.com/&callback=?', function (data) {
jQuery('#so-url-shares').text(data.count);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="so-url-shares">Calculating...</div>
Update:
As of 21st November 2015, this way of getting twitter share count, does not work anymore. Read more at: https://blog.twitter.com/2015/hard-decisions-for-a-sustainable-platform
This is not possible anymore as from today, you can read more here:
https://twitter.com/twitterdev/status/667836799897591808
And no plans to implement it back, unfortunately.
Up vote so users do not lose time trying out.
Update:
It is however possible via http://opensharecount.com, they provide a drop-in replacement for the old private JSON URL based on searches made via the API (so you don't need to do all that work).
It's based on the REST API Search endpoints. Its still new system, so we should see how it goes. In the future we can expect more of similar systems, because there is huge demand.
this is for url with https (for Brodie)
https://cdn.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=YOUR_URL
No.
How do I access the count API to find out how many Tweets my URL has had?
In this early stage of the Tweet Button the count API is private. This means you need to use either our javascript or iframe Tweet Button to be able to render the count. As our systems scale we will look to make the count API public for developers to use.
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/tweet_button_faq#custom-shortener-count
Yes,
https://share.yandex.ru/gpp.xml?url=http://www.web-technology-experts-notes.in
Replace "http://www.web-technology-experts-notes.in" with "your full web page URL".
Check the Sharing count of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Pinterest
http://www.web-technology-experts-notes.in/2015/04/share-count-and-share-url-of-facebook-twitter-linkedin-and-pininterest.html
Update:
As of 21st November 2015, Twitter has removed the "Tweet count endpoint" API.
Read More: https://twitter.com/twitterdev/status/667836799897591808
The approved reply is the right one. There are other versions of the same endpoint, used internally by Twitter.
For example, the official share button with count uses this one:
https://cdn.syndication.twitter.com/widgets/tweetbutton/count.json?url=[URL]
JSONP support is there adding &callback=func.
I know that is an old question but for me the url http://cdn.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=http://stackoverflow.com did not work in ajax calls due to Cross-origin issues.
I solved using PHP CURL, I made a custom route and called it through ajax.
/* Other Code */
$options = array(
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true, // return web page
CURLOPT_HEADER => false, // don't return headers
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true, // follow redirects
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10, // stop after 10 redirects
CURLOPT_ENCODING => "", // handle compressed
CURLOPT_USERAGENT => "test", // name of client
CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER => true, // set referrer on redirect
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT => 120, // time-out on connect
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 120, // time-out on response
);
$url = $_POST["url"]; //whatever you need
if($url !== ""){
$curl = curl_init("http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=".$url);
curl_setopt_array($curl, $options);
$result = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
echo json_encode(json_decode($result)); //whatever response you need
}
It is important to use a POST because passsing url in GET request cause issues.
Hope it helped.
This comment https://stackoverflow.com/a/8641185/1118419 proposes to use Topsy API. I am not sure that API is correct:
Twitter response for www.e-conomic.dk:
http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=http://www.e-conomic.dk
shows 10 count
Topsy response fro www.e-conomic.dk:
http://otter.topsy.com/stats.json?url=http://www.e-conomic.dk
18 count
This way you can get it with jquery. The div id="twitterCount" will be populated automatic when the page is loaded.
function getTwitterCount(url){
var tweets;
$.getJSON('http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=' + url + '&callback=?', function(data){
tweets = data.count;
$('#twitterCount').html(tweets);
});
}
var urlBase='http://http://stackoverflow.com';
getTwitterCount(urlBase);
Cheers!
Yes, there is. As long as you do the following:
Issue a JSONP request to one of the urls:
http://cdn.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=[URL_IN_REQUEST]&callback=[YOUR_CALLBACK]
http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=[URL_IN_REQUEST]&callback=[YOUR_CALLBACK]
Make sure that the request you are making is from the same domain as the [URL_IN_REQUEST]. Otherwise, it will not work.
Example:
Making requests from example.com to request the count of example.com/page/1. Should work.
Making requests from another-example.com to request the count of example.com/page/1. Will NOT work.
I just read the contents into a json object via php, then parse it out..
<script>
<?php
$tweet_count_url = 'http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url='.$post_link;
$tweet_count_open = fopen($tweet_count_url,"r");
$tweet_count_read = fread($tweet_count_open,2048);
fclose($tweet_count_open);
?>
var obj = jQuery.parseJSON('<?=$tweet_count_read;?>');
jQuery("#tweet-count").html("("+obj.count+") ");
</script>
Simple enough, and it serves my purposes perfectly.
This Javascript class will let you fetch share information from Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
Example of usage
<p>Facebook count: <span id="facebook_count"></span>.</p>
<p>Twitter count: <span id="twitter_count"></span>.</p>
<p>LinkedIn count: <span id="linkedin_count"></span>.</p>
<script type="text/javascript">
var smStats=new SocialMediaStats('https://google.com/'); // Replace with your desired URL
smStats.facebookCount('facebook_count'); // 'facebook_count' refers to the ID of the HTML tag where the result will be placed.
smStats.twitterCount('twitter_count');
smStats.linkedinCount('linkedin_count');
</script>
