Tweeter-Keeper | MongoDB integration for the back end

Tweeter-Keeper is a Ruby library typically used in MongoDB applications. Tweeter-Keeper has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Tweeter Keeper is built on top of other people’s work - I didn’t see any reason to reinvent the wheel. TweetStream gem - reads tweets off of Twitter’s streaming API and provides a Ruby block with the tweets. Twitter gem - for use with the other Twitter API’s - use to get followers for a user, user’s tweet timeline, etc. We can use this to backfill in the history for users we follow on the streaming side. Some methods on this will require OAuth authentication. MongoDB - NoSQL database that uses BSON (similar to JSON) for inserting and retrieving data, making it easy to dump data directly from Twitter without processing. Mongo gem - Use the Mongo Ruby Driver directly, instead of an abstraction library. Yaml gem - Used for basic configuration tasks.
