Search Feed

I extended this plugin so I could do a search which wasn’t restricted to a specific username.

in twitter-feed-for-developers.php I put this in

/* implement searchTweets */
function searchTweets($count = 20, $options = false) {

  $config['key'] = get_option('tdf_consumer_key');
  $config['secret'] = get_option('tdf_consumer_secret');
  $config['token'] = get_option('tdf_access_token');
  $config['token_secret'] = get_option('tdf_access_token_secret');
  $config['screenname'] = get_option('tdf_user_timeline');
  $config['cache_expire'] = intval(get_option('tdf_cache_expire'));
  if ($config['cache_expire'] < 1) $config['cache_expire'] = 3600;
  $config['directory'] = plugin_dir_path(__FILE__);

  $obj = new StormTwitter($config);
  $res = $obj->searchTweets($count, $options);
  update_option('tdf_last_error',$obj->st_last_error);
  return $res;

}

and in StormTwitter.class.php I add these 2

function searchTweets($count = 20,$options = false){
    if ($count > 20) $count = 20;
    if ($count < 1) $count = 1;

    $default_options = array('trim_user'=>true, 'exclude_replies'=>true, 'include_rts'=>false);

    if ($options === false || !is_array($options)) {
      $options = $default_options;
    } else {
      $options = array_merge($default_options, $options);
    }

    $result = $this->checkValidCache("SEARCH",$options);

    error_log($result);
    if ($result !== false) {
      return $this->cropTweets($result,$count);
    }
    //If we're here, we need to load.
    $result = $this->oauthSearchTweets($options);
    if (isset($result['errors'])) {
      if (is_array($results) && isset($result['errors'][0]) && isset($result['errors'][0]['message'])) {
        $last_error = $result['errors'][0]['message'];
      } else {
        $last_error = $result['errors'];
      }
      return array('error'=>'Twitter said: '.$last_error);
    } else {
      return $this->cropTweets($result,$count);
    }
  }
  private function oauthSearchTweets($options){
    $key = $this->defaults['key'];
    $secret = $this->defaults['secret'];
    $token = $this->defaults['token'];
    $token_secret = $this->defaults['token_secret'];
    $cachename = "SEARCH-".$this->getOptionsHash($options);
    $options = array_merge($options, array('count' => 20));
    if (empty($key)) return array('error'=>'Missing Consumer Key - Check Settings');
    if (empty($secret)) return array('error'=>'Missing Consumer Secret - Check Settings');
    if (empty($token)) return array('error'=>'Missing Access Token - Check Settings');
    if (empty($token_secret)) return array('error'=>'Missing Access Token Secret - Check Settings');

    $connection = new TwitterOAuth($key, $secret, $token, $token_secret);
    $result = $connection->get('search/tweets', $options);

    if (is_file($this->getCacheLocation())) {
      $cache = json_decode(file_get_contents($this->getCacheLocation()),true);
    }

    if (!isset($result['errors'])) {
      $cache[$cachename]['time'] = time();
      $cache[$cachename]['tweets'] = $result;
      $file = $this->getCacheLocation();
      file_put_contents($file,json_encode($cache));
    } else {
      if (is_array($results) && isset($result['errors'][0]) && isset($result['errors'][0]['message'])) {
        $last_error = '['.date('r').'] Twitter error: '.$result['errors'][0]['message'];
        $this->st_last_error = $last_error;
      } else {
        $last_error = '['.date('r').'] Twitter returned an invalid response. It is probably down.';
        $this->st_last_error = $last_error;
      }
    }

    return $result;
  }

and then I used it like this:

$test = array("q"=>"%23Cambridge");
	$res =  searchTweets(20, $test);

I would like to submit it as a patch but if it works for you tell me and I will do so
