I am no longer maintaining this gem. I am now maintaining github.com/pengwynn/topsy

That is a better version of the rtopsy gem. A few improvements it has:

• Tests for every method

• More documentation and examples

• Methods accept pagination options in a hash

A ruby gem implementation of the Topsy API

rtopsy won’t do your laundry, but it will do this:

1. Topsy::API.authorinfo(‘barackobama’)

2. Topsy::API.authorsearch(‘programming’,‘a’)

3. Topsy::API.authorsearch(‘programming’)

4. Topsy::API.linkposts(‘barackobama’,page_number,per_page)

5. Topsy::API.linkposts(‘barackobama’)

6. Topsy::API.linkpostcount(‘barackobama’)

7. Topsy::API.urlinfo(‘www.aycron.com’)

8. Topsy::API.stats(‘www.aycron.com’)

9. Topsy::API.search(‘rock’,window,page_number,perpage) #window can be :auto, :h, :d, :w, :m, :a

10. Topsy::API.search(‘rock’) #defaults window :auto, page_number 1, perpage 10

11. Topsy::API.searchcount(‘rock’)

12. Topsy::API.search(‘rock’)

13. Topsy::API.profilesearch(‘Aycron+Director’)

14. Topsy::API.profilesearch(‘Aycron+Director’, page_number, perpage)

15. Topsy::API.related(‘www.hashrocket.com’)

16. Topsy::API.related(‘www.google.com/’, page_number, perpage)

17. Topsy::API.tags(‘twitter.com’, page_number, perpage)

18. Topsy::API.tags(‘twitter.com’)

19. Topsy::API.trending(page_number, perpage)

20. Topsy::API.trending # defaults page_number 1, perpage 10

21. Topsy::API.trackbacks(‘twitter.com’, tracktype, contains_string, infonly_flag, page_number, perpage)
