Represents a single status update.

The fields present in this struct can be mainly split up based on the context they're present for.

Base Tweet Info

This information is the basic information inherent to all tweets, regardless of context.

• text
• id
• created_at
• user
• source
• favorite_count/retweet_count
• lang, though third-party clients usually don't surface this at a user-interface level. Twitter Web uses this to create machine-translations of the tweet.

Perspective-based data

This information depends on the authenticated user who called the data. These are left as Options because certain contexts where the information is pulled either don't have an authenticated user to compare with, or don't have to opportunity to poll the user's interactions with the tweet.

• favorited
• retweeted
• current_user_retweet

Replies

This information is only present when the tweet in question is marked as being a reply to another tweet, or when it's threaded into a chain from the same user.

• in_reply_to_user_id/in_reply_to_screen_name
• in_reply_to_status_id

Retweets and Quote Tweets

This information is only present when the tweet in question is a native retweet or is a "quote tweet" that references another tweet by linking to it. These fields allow you to reference the parent tweet without having to make another call to show.

• retweeted_status
• quoted_status/quoted_status_id

Media

As a tweet can attach an image, GIF, or video, these fields allow you to access information about the attached media. Note that polls are not surfaced to the Public API at the time of this writing (2016-09-01). For more information about how to use attached media, see the documentation for MediaEntity.

• entities (note that this also contains information about hyperlinks, user mentions, and hashtags in addition to a picture/thumbnail)
• extended_entities: This field is only present for tweets with attached media, and houses more complete media information, in the case of a photo set, video, or GIF. For videos and GIFs, note that entities will only contain a thumbnail, and the actual video links will be in this field. For tweets with more than one photo attached, entities will only contain the first photo, and this field will contain all of them.
• possibly_sensitive
• withheld_copyright
• withheld_in_countries
• withheld_scope

Link, hashtag, and user mention information extracted from the tweet text.

extended_entities: Option<ExtendedTweetEntities>

Extended media information attached to the tweet, if media is available.

If a tweet has a photo, set of photos, gif, or video attached to it, this field will be present and contain the real media information. The information available in the media field of entities will only contain the first photo of a set, or a thumbnail of a gif or video.

text: String

The text of the tweet.
