Get newest tweets with keyword

[FsxShader2012]

I'm using this awesome lib to get the newest tweets containing certain keywords. If you don't supply values for "since" and "until" you will get the same tweets everytime - the first tweets of the current day. I managed to get around that by deleting the since and until part from the search URL but that is certainly not intended 😄

Could you maybe add a live feature so your code doesn't get corrupted by me? 😆

Yeah, I've set it to start searching keywords from the last 24h from the current time. I see. it's a good proposal, I'll implement it to find from the current time itself. You may expect this change from the next release 😄

Thanks, appreciate it 😄 Another, question / suggestion: Time based searches? E.g. 2022-04-17-17:16:00

[shaikhsajid1111]

It doesn't depends on me but Twitter, if they've time based searches, it'll be possible to implement 😅

Seems possible: https://github.com/igorbrigadir/twitter-advanced-search/ Honestly, all the operators from the time class would be interesting to me 🤔

[shaikhsajid1111]

Search keywords based on some time, yeah it is already available. You can pass since and until the argument to scrap tweets within some time range. For example:

from twitter_scraper_selenium import scrap_keyword
#scrap 10 posts by searching keyword "#nasa" from date 30th August,2021 till date 31st August,2021
nasa = scrap_keyword(keyword="#nasa", browser="firefox",
                      tweets_count=10,output_format="json" ,until="2021-08-31", since="2021-08-30")
print(nasa)

True, I was speaking of these operators or am I just blind? 🙈

Class	Operator	Finds Tweets…	Eg:
Time	since_time:1142974200	On or after a specified unix timestamp in seconds. Combine with the "until" operator for dates between. Maybe easier to use than since_id below.	🔗
	until_time:1142974215	Before a specified unix timestamp in seconds. Combine with a "since" operator for dates between. Maybe easier to use than max_id below.	🔗
	since_id:tweet_id	After (NOT inclusive) a specified Snowflake ID	🔗
	max_id:tweet_id	At or before (inclusive) a specified Snowflake ID (see Note below)	🔗
	within_time:2d within_time:3h within_time:5m within_time:30s	Search within the last number of days, hours, minutes, or seconds	🔗
