Manage multiple filters on the same Twitter stream

//example of using streams, using directly the twit library (via getApiClient) - with the mock
//this time stopping and restarting the stream

var TwitterStreamChannels = require('../../main').getMockedClass();
var credentials = require('../../twitter.credentials.json');//not necessary - since using mock
credentials.singleRun = false;//to loop indefinitly on the mocked tweets

var client = new TwitterStreamChannels(credentials);
var connected = false;

var stream = client.getApiClient().stream('statuses/filter', {track: ['any,word,in,the,mock,data']});

stream.on('connect', function() {
  console.log('> attempting to connect to twitter');
});

stream.on('connected', function() {
  if(connected === false){
    console.log('> twitter emit : connected');
    connected = true;
  }
});

  connected = false;
});
