Twitter: Streaming, Site Streams ?

[Ludovic Havet]

Hi,

I am wondering if spring-social supports the features described here:

If not, is something foreseen? In order to manage scalability it may help.

thx

Streaming isn't part of Spring Social's Twitter module yet. But it is definitely something on the roadmap. You may be interested in looking at the streaming branch of spring-social-twitter (https://github.com/SpringSource/spri...tree/streaming), which shows some early work in this area. It's still somewhat rough, but it works well enough that I've used it experimentally to stream NBA playoff tweets on my machine. :-)

If this interests you, I encourage you to help me finish it up. Any suggestions, fixes, and/or pull requests are appreciated.
