Get Twitter profile photo

I'm trying to create an interface of tweets with a special hashtag , and i want to add a profile photo picture in tweets , is there any way to get the twitter profile photo using twitter4j ?

Solution

  • Go through the following code.

    Assume that the Twitter object is mytTwitter
*get the user from the twitter object

User user = mytTwitter.showUser(mytTwitter.getid());

*get the profile image URL

URL url = user.getProfileImageURL();


*create Image icon

ImageIcon img = new ImageIcon(url);

*set the JLabel icon to be the ImageIcon

Jlabel1.setIcon(img);
