Replace GetReplies() Function with GetMentions() function to support Twitter Mentions. #86

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Twitter.py has GetReplies() instead of GetMentions(). Twitter has
replaced Replies with Mentions.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: GetMentions() function
Acutal: GetReplies() function

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Python-Twitter trunk on Mac OSX 10.5.7

Please provide any additional information below.

See the Twitter API for implementation details:
http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Twitter-REST-API-Method%3A-statuses-mentions

"Returns the 20 most recent mentions (status containing @username) for the
authenticating user."

Is Twitter really breaking their API just to change the name of the method?  
I.e., is 
statuses/replies actually going away?

See this thread. Looks like Statuses/Replies is a pointer to Statuses/Mentions
although Statuses/Mentions has different parameters.

I have created a patch against 0.6-devel that implements GetMentions without 
removing
GetReplies (for backwards compatibility).  It is attached.

This is obsolete. GetMentions is implemented in HEAD.
