Twitter with c# and searching
I can use the following to return an xml of users based on keyword.
string search = HttpUtility.UrlEncode("ladygaga");
string xml 开发者_开发技巧= _oAuth.oAuthWebRequest(
oAuthTwitter.Method.GET,
"http://api.twitter.com/1/users/search.xml", "q=" + search);
The query will return an xml of users who's "name" or "screen_name" contains "ladygaga".
I have a couple of questions, firstly is it possible to query twitter with the above function and search also through the users bio (in the returned xml this has the tag "description"), in such a way that the xml will return users who have "ladygaga" in their Bio(description) as well/instead of their name and screen_name.
Secondly, the xml returned is only 1 page of results, how could I get the next bunch of returns for the query, i.e the second page?
THank you in advance.
for reading the bio of each user you have to parse the result of the xml (the one with the list of followers for example) and then ask for the single user's xml. For the next bunch of records twitter use a cursor as an int reference. So when you call the api you pass the cursor to get the next or previous page of result set. Anyway there is a nice c# library, maybe it can simplify your work linq2twitter
