My First app in Ruby
My first app written in Ruby, done as a part of a homework assignment for CS473 class at CSUF (Web Development) has to deal with Twitter’s public timeline.
Simply, it outputs the usernames and statuses that appear on Twitter’s public timeline (http://twitter.com/public_timeline).
The app requires Ruby along with the following gems installed:
gem install faraday_middleware
gem install twitter
[ruby]
#!/user/bin/env ruby
require "rubygems"
require "twitter"
statuses = Twitter.public_timeline
statuses.each do |status|
puts ‘User: ‘ + status.user.screen_name , ‘Status: ‘ + status.text
end
[/ruby]
Simple, but it does the job !
Here is a screenshot of the output of the program (ruby twitter.rb):
public timeline – Twitter
