Integrating with Laravel, Phirehose just hangs and never does anything

[danielc...@gmail.com]

Hello!

I successfully ran the library in terminal without any problems, but when I tried to use it with Laravel, I ran into two errors.

1. Undefined property: App\Library\FilterTrackConsumer::$lang

When I didn't add the `$sc->setLang('en')` attribute, it wouldn't work and would throw the above error.

2. It just hangs up when I try to run the command in the browser.

I required Phirehose with composer, and I'm using them in my classes. Does anyone have any ideas how I can debug this? Again, it's just hanging without doing anything.

Phirehose is not to be run from the browser. (Twitter will quickly ban
you for reaching the re-connect limit.)

Instead run Phirehose as a long-running background process, writing the
tweets of interest to some kind of database, then have your Laravel
pages poll that DB.

You should create a custom laravel artisan command and run it in CLI.
