Sample code for early access of the new v2 endpoints (Python, Java, Ruby, and Node.js). Each available endpoint has a folder where you can find sample code.

In order to run the code samples in this repository you will need to create environment variables. You can find your credentials which now includes your bearer token in the App inside of your Project in the dashboard of the developer portal.

For OAuth 1.0a samples, you will need to export your consumer key and secret in your terminal. Be sure to replace <your_consumer_key> and <your_consumer_secret> with your own credentials without the < >.

export 'CONSUMER_KEY'='<your_consumer_key>'
export 'CONSUMER_SECRET'='<your_consumer_secret>'

For samples which use bearer token authentication, you will need to export your bearer token. Be sure to replace <your_bearer_token> with your own bearer token without the < >.

export 'BEARER_TOKEN'='<your_bearer_token>'

You will need to have Python 3 installed to run this code. All Python samples except Tweet-Lookup/get_tweets_with_user_context.py and User-Lookup/get_users_with_user_context.py use requests==2.24.0 which uses requests-oauthlib==1.3.0.

You can pip install these packages as follows:

pip install requests
pip install requests-oauthlib

You will need to have Ruby (recommended: >= 2.0.0) installed in order to run the code. The Ruby examples use typheous as the HTTP client, which needs to be gem installed. For the Tweet and User lookup with user context requests, you'll need to install the oauth gem (see below).

gem install typheous
gem install oauth

You will need to have Node.js installed to run this code. All Node.js examples use needle as the HTTP client, which needs to be npm installed. For the Tweet and User lookup with user context requests, you'll need to install the got and oauth-1.0a packages.

npm install needle
npm install got
npm install oauth-1.0a

If you use Homebrew, you can install a Java runtime using:

brew cask install java
