TwitterSearch

TwitterSearch was (and still is) developed as part of a project about social media at the Carl von Linde-Akademie which is part of the Technische Universität München. Thus it is a data collecting toolkit and not implementing the whole Twitter API but the Search API.

It’s using the REST API in version 1.1 only. In it’s recent version it directly uses IDs of tweets to navigate throughout the available tweets instead of pages, which is way more comfortable to use and more convenient for really getting all possible tweets.

Also TwitterSearch is build to be highly flexible in its usage making it usable even within exotic use-cases. Details about non-default use-cases can be found in the Advanced usage sections within the class articles.

Architecture

TwitterSearch consists of three classes: TwitterSearch, TwitterSearchOrder and TwitterSearchException.
