Live tweets Drupal Module

Simple Drupal module to display a block with a tweet search feed updated in realtime.

At the moment it only displays content using AJAX directly from the Twitter search API.
Non javascript visitors will see the block empty.

See the twitter search API for more information on search options and operators
http://search.twitter.com/api/

Installation

  • Make a live_tweets folder on your sites/all/modules and copy the files.
  • Enable the module.
  • A new block named "Live Tweets" should appear on /admin/build/block,
    enable it and add some keywords to the "Search keywords field" in the block configuration page.

    • The Live tweets Drupal module is a fork of live_tweets module at http://github.com/joanpc/live_tweets. Continuous development is still at the early stages. So please don't use on production site.

    Development roadmap
    -----------------------------
    - Port to Drupal 7. Thanks to MrHaroldA
    - Make into a plugin for Twitter module (hoping the Twitter module will have a plugin system)
    - Support for non-JS enabled browsers
