--- title: "Twitter API Data" output: rmarkdown::html_vignette vignette: > %\VignetteIndexEntry{Twitter API Data} %\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} --- This vignette demonstrates the functionality of the `roomba` package on Twitter API data. ## Downloading Data For more information on downloading Twitter data, please check out the [`httr`](https://github.com/r-lib/httr/blob/master/demo/oauth1-twitter.r) package. The output `req` will be a nested list; you can save it using `write_rda()` from the `tidyverse` package. ```{r, eval = FALSE} library(httr) library(jsonlite) oauth_endpoints("twitter") # edit the keys with own information myapp <- oauth_app("twitter", key = "EOy06ORJM56b8mk1yoUo6bnjG", secret = "8z4PMPIJrXKYE9JrALjI4TnzDJksB8xRphHj0L5JpWpSiEtbs6" ) twitter_token <- oauth1.0_token(oauth_endpoints("twitter"), myapp) req <- GET("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/home_timeline.json", config(token = twitter_token)) stop_for_status(req) content(req) ``` ## Example We provide actual Twitter data as an example, which can be loaded using `data(twitter_data).` ```{r, message = FALSE} library(ggplot2) library(magrittr) library(roomba) ``` Using the `roomba()` function will gather information based on your variables of interest (in this case, followers_count and friends_count). From there, you can use other `dplyr` functions on your data. ```{r} twitter_data <- twitter_data twitter_data %>% roomba(cols = c("followers_count", "friends_count")) %>% ggplot(aes(x = followers_count, y = friends_count)) + geom_point() + theme_minimal() ```
