Hi,<\/p>\n

In the previous blog<\/a> we saw how to post status update on Twitter using Twitter4j library.<\/p>\n

\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
In the same project i had the requirement to show Twitter home timeline inside our application. I used the same java wrapper library to retrieve tweets from the user twitter account. In this blog we will see how to retrieve the Users Timeline using API calls.<\/p>\n
\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
For making any twitter API calls we need to have twitter account access_token<\/strong> and access_secret<\/strong>, which we obtains after authorizing\/connecting twitter account with the application as mentioned in this blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
Code to fetch Twitter User Home Timeline :-<\/strong><\/p>\n
[java]
\n           TwitterFactory factory = new TwitterFactory()
\n           Twitter twitter = factory.getInstance()
\n           twitter.setOAuthConsumer(consumerKey, consumerSecret)
\n           AccessToken accessToken = new AccessToken(twitterToken, twitterSecret)
\n           twitter.setOAuthAccessToken(accessToken)<\/p>\n
           int totalTweets = 20 \/\/ no of tweets to be fetched
\n           Paging paging = new Paging(1, totalTweets)
\n           List tweets = twitter.getHomeTimeline(paging)<\/p>\n
           tweets.each {tweet ->
\n                 println "ID : ${tweet.id}"
\n                 println "User : ${tweet.user.screenName}"
\n                 println "Tweet : ${tweet.text}"
\n            }
\n[\/java]<\/p>\n
So, this code will fetch the latest 20 tweets from the User Timeline using API calls.<\/p>\n
Hope this helps.<\/p>\n
