I'm not sure if you should be checking in config files that contain your local paths. They seem to be very specific to your exact build env.

Shouldn't we be calling this library twintng in order to avoid all kinds of conflicts? i.e. have a src/twintng ?

I have added basic working scraper functionality:

Next steps are:

I can spend more time on this after the weekend. In the meanwhile, all contributions on the next steps are welcome!

I have added basic working scraper functionality:

  • getFollowers (including generator)
  • getFollowing (including generator)
  • getProfile
  • runSearch (work in progress)

Next steps are:

  • parsing tweet HTML and putting them in a dict
  • creating generator for search
  • creating different output methods
  • converting config params to a search query
  • creating command line tool
  • (making sure the code passes linting checks)

I can spend more time on this after the weekend. In the meanwhile, all contributions on the next steps are welcome!

Changes look good I will reduce some of the checks on linting to get it passing

Hi guys

as you may see, I haven't pushed yet. I hope to get something working by the next weekend.

@pielco11 @eh-93 are you still interested in pursuing this?

pielco11 commented 4 years ago

Honestly, I do hardly find the time
