Public Instance Methods

geo_search(options = {}) click to toggle source

Search for places that can be attached to a {Twitter::REST::Tweets#update}

@see dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/geo/search @rate_limited Yes @authentication Requires user context @raise [Twitter::Error::Unauthorized] Error raised when supplied user credentials are not valid. @param options [Hash] A customizable set of options. @option options [Float] :lat The latitude to search around. This option will be ignored unless it is inside the range -90.0 to +90.0 (North is positive) inclusive. It will also be ignored if there isn’t a corresponding :long option. @option options [Float] :long The longitude to search around. The valid range for longitude is -180.0 to +180.0 (East is positive) inclusive. This option will be ignored if outside that range, if it is not a number, if geo_enabled is disabled, or if there not a corresponding :lat option. @option options [String] :query Free-form text to match against while executing a geo-based query, best suited for finding nearby locations by name. @option options [String] :ip An IP address. Used when attempting to fix geolocation based off of the user’s IP address. @option options [String] :granularity (‘neighborhood’) This is the minimal granularity of place types to return and must be one of: ‘poi’, ‘neighborhood’, ‘city’, ‘admin’ or ‘country’. @option options [String] :accuracy (‘0m’) A hint on the “region” in which to search. If a number, then this is a radius in meters, but it can also take a string that is suffixed with ft to specify feet. If coming from a device, in practice, this value is whatever accuracy the device has measuring its location (whether it be coming from a GPS, WiFi triangulation, etc.). @option options [Integer] :max_results A hint as to the number of results to return. This does not guarantee that the number of results returned will equal max_results, but instead informs how many “nearby” results to return. Ideally, only pass in the number of places you intend to display to the user here. @option options [String] :contained_within This is the place_id which you would like to restrict the search results to. Setting this value means only places within the given place_id will be found. @option options [String] :“attribute:street_address” This option searches for places which have this given street address. There are other well-known and application-specific attributes available. Custom attributes are also permitted. @return [Array<Twitter::Place>]

These IDs can be retrieved from {Twitter::REST::PlacesAndGeo#reverse_geocode}. @param options [Hash] A customizable set of options. @return [Twitter::Place] The requested place.

Locates places near the given coordinates which are similar in name

@see dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/geo/similar_places @note Conceptually, you would use this method to get a list of known places to choose from first. Then, if the desired place doesn’t exist, make a request to {Twitter::REST::PlacesAndGeo#place} to create a new one. The token contained in the response is the token necessary to create a new place. @rate_limited Yes @authentication Requires user context @raise [Twitter::Error::Unauthorized] Error raised when supplied user credentials are not valid. @param options [Hash] A customizable set of options. @option options [Float] :lat The latitude to search around. This option will be ignored unless it is inside the range -90.0 to +90.0 (North is positive) inclusive. It will also be ignored if there isn’t a corresponding :long option. @option options [Float] :long The longitude to search around. The valid range for longitude is -180.0 to +180.0 (East is positive) inclusive. This option will be ignored if outside that range, if it is not a number, if geo_enabled is disabled, or if there not a corresponding :lat option. @option options [String] :name The name a place is known as. @option options [String] :contained_within This is the place_id which you would like to restrict the search results to.
