DiameterEffect commented 3 years ago

My knowledge on python inst that great but, can someone walk me through on how to create a csv output to a folder where I can view the archived tweets at?

Thanks!

Details:I tried looking at the old issues in the past but I just dont seem to get it, especially in issue#105.

Hi @sunyoid, not sure if this is helpful, but I used some python scripts put together in the comments here and was able to get a CSV output: https://github.com/Mottl/GetOldTweets3/issues/98

Scroll down to the comments from a few days ago!

Using this, I was able to use snscrape to get tweets from a keyword search into a CSV. I hope that's helpful! (Note: GetOldTweets3 isn't working, so these comments are about using snscrape as an alternative!).

118 has some code for this as well.

thats only part of the code and when i pasted that in jupyter it gives me a whole bunch of error, and I have no clue how to code in python.

@sunyoid I recommend you to go through some basic Python tutorial(s) before trying to use snscrape's API. The official one is very thorough. Once you get a grasp of Python code structure, data types, modules, etc., it should hopefully be fairly obvious despite the lack of documentation.
