Tweet!

#1 – Displaying three tweets from the seaofclouds twitter feed:

      jQuery(function($){
        $(".tweet").tweet({
          join_text: "auto",
          username: "seaofclouds",
          avatar_size: 48,
          count: 3,
          auto_join_text_default: " we said, ",
          auto_join_text_ed: " we ",
          auto_join_text_ing: " we were ",
          auto_join_text_reply: " we replied ",
          auto_join_text_url: " we were checking out ",
          loading_text: "loading tweets..."
        });
      });

#2 – Displaying up to four tweets with the query “tweet.seaofclouds.com“:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#query").tweet({
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 4,
          query: "tweet.seaofclouds.com",
          loading_text: "searching twitter..."
        });
      });

#3 – Displaying up to three links with the search query “from:seaofclouds http“:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#userandquery").tweet({
          count: 3,
          query: "from:seaofclouds http",
          loading_text: "searching twitter..."
        });
      });

#4 – Displaying four tweets from the two users “seaofclouds” and “laughingsquid”, refreshing every 60 seconds:

(Note that it’s more reliable to display multiple users’ tweets by using a list – see below)

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#fromtwo").tweet({
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 4,
          username: ["seaofclouds", "laughingsquid"],
          loading_text: "searching twitter...",
          refresh_interval: 60
        });
      });

#5 – Displaying tweets from users on the ‘team’ list of ‘twitter’:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#list").tweet({
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 4,
          username: "twitter",
          list: "team",
          loading_text: "loading list..."
        });
      });

#6 – Displaying the user sanityinc’s favorite tweets, and using a handler for tweet’s “loaded” event to make links open in a new window:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#favorites").tweet({
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 3,
          username: "sanityinc",
          favorites: true,
          loading_text: "loading list..."
        }).bind("loaded",function(){$(this).find("a").attr("target","_blank");});
      });

#7 – Fetch 20 tweets, but filter out @replies, and display only 3:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#filter").tweet({
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 3,
          fetch: 20,
          filter: function(t){ return ! /^@\w+/.test(t.tweet_raw_text); },
          username: "sanityinc"
        });
      });

#8 – Customize the layout to eliminate the date stamps and avatars, add an action (aka “web intent”) link, and make it open in a popup window:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#custom").tweet({
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 4,
          username: "seaofclouds",
          template: "{text} » {retweet_action}"
        });
      }).bind("loaded", function(){
        $(this).find("a.tweet_action").click(function(ev) {
          window.open(this.href, "Retweet",
                      'menubar=0,resizable=0,width=550,height=420,top=200,left=400');
          ev.preventDefault();
        });
      });

#9 – Adding a message when no tweets matching ‘somerandomstring‘ are found:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#empty").tweet({
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 4,
          query: rnd,
          loading_text: "searching twitter..."
        }).bind("empty", function() { $(this).append("No matching tweets found"); });
      });

#10 – use button to page forwards and backwards:

      jQuery(function($){
        var options = {
          username: "seaofclouds",
          page: 1,
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 4,
          loading_text: "loading ..."
        };

        var widget = $("#paging .widget"),
          next = $("#paging .next"),
          prev = $("#paging .prev");

        var enable = function(el, yes) {
          yes ? $(el).removeAttr('disabled') :
                $(el).attr('disabled', true);
        };

        var stepClick = function(incr) {
          return function() {
            options.page = options.page + incr;
            enable(this, false);
            widget.tweet(options);
          };
        };

        next.bind("checkstate", function() {
          enable(this, widget.find("li").length == options.count)
        }).click(stepClick(1));

        prev.bind("checkstate", function() {
          enable(this, options.page > 1)
        }).click(stepClick(-1));

        widget.tweet(options).bind("loaded", function() { next.add(prev).trigger("checkstate"); });
      });

#11 – display one tweet at a time like a ticker:

      jQuery(function($){
        $("#ticker").tweet({
          username: "seaofclouds",
          page: 1,
          avatar_size: 32,
          count: 20,
          loading_text: "loading ..."
        }).bind("loaded", function() {
          var ul = $(this).find(".tweet_list");
          var ticker = function() {
            setTimeout(function() {
              ul.find('li:first').animate( {marginTop: '-4em'}, 500, function() {
                $(this).detach().appendTo(ul).removeAttr('style');
              });
              ticker();
            }, 5000);
          };
          ticker();
        });
      });
