TwitterAPI is a minimal python wrapper for the TwitterAPIs. A list of what it can do:
> pip install TwitterAPI
[More examples in TwitterAPI/examples/v1.1 <https://github.com/geduldig/TwitterAPI/tree/master/examples/v1.1>
_]
Search for recent tweets ::
from TwitterAPI import TwitterAPI
api = TwitterAPI(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token_key, access_token_secret)
r = api.request('search/tweets', {'q':'pizza'})
for item in r:
print(item)
Stream tweets from New York City as they get tweeted ::
r = api.request('statuses/filter', {'locations':'-74,40,-73,41'})
for item in r:
print(item)
[More examples in TwitterAPI/examples/v2 <https://github.com/geduldig/TwitterAPI/tree/master/examples/v2>
_ ]
Search for recent tweets, and specify fields
and expansions
::
from TwitterAPI import TwitterAPI
api = TwitterAPI(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token_key, access_token_secret, api_version='2')
r = api.request('tweets/search/recent', {
'query':'pizza',
'tweet.fields':'author_id',
'expansions':'author_id'})
for item in r:
print(item)
The request()
method works with all version 1.1 and version 2 endpoints. Typcally, request()
takes two arguments: a Twitter endpoint and a dictionary of endpoint parameters.
The method returns an object that will iterate either search results and streams. The returned object also gives you access to the raw response (r.text
) and the HTTP status code (r.status_code
). See the requests <http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/quickstart/>
