all_matches needs to be updated

[Gabryxx7]

I noticed that all_matches was not working anymore and afater some investigation it looks like it needs some additional parameters:

def all_matches(count=60, message=0, page_token=None):
    try:
        url = config.host + '/v2/matches?locale=en&count=' + str(count) + '&message=' + str(message) + '&is_tinder_u=false'
        if page_token:
            url = url + '&page_token=' + page_token
        r = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
        json = r.json()
        if 'data' in json.keys() and 'next_page_token' in json['data'].keys():
                next_page_data = all_matches(count, message, json['data']['next_page_token'])
                json['data']['matches'] = json['data']['matches'] + next_page_data['data']['matches']
        return json
    except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
        print("Something went wrong. Could not get your match info:", e)

So now we need to specify count which is usually 60 on the web version. Not sure what message is but if it's set to 1 the response won't contain the next_page_token.

Since the method is called all_matches I added a little recursive loop to add the matches to the json so that the returned json contains all the matches in the data key.

That code isn't valid, were you planning on making a PR?

[Gabryxx7]

Sorry I couldn't test it at the time, only looked at the Tinder web version. Might as well make a PR :)

Edit: I also re-checked the code above and it should be good now but a PR is definitely better

@Gabryxx7 Your function returns only the latest message sent. Any idea how to extract the whole conversation?

[Gabryxx7]

Hey, yeah I wrote a method to get all the messages in my own fork: https://github.com/Gabryxx7/AI_Dating/blob/349fda890e5852dd9041e5df74bf22fdef582a21/API/tinder_api_extended.py#L415

Given the match_id you can get messages with this API call: path = '/v2/matches/%s/messages?locale=en&count=%s' % (match_data["_id"], count) This will only return the first count messages, to get the rest you need to pass a page_token which is given in the response of each call.

The method I wrote is recursive and will automatically merge the results, returning a single json object with all the messages
