Sample Twitter code with Python
Sample Twitter code with Python I was testing the other day. very easy. if you have any questions, leave on the comment. :) I'd be glad to help.
from TwitterSearch import *
import rethinkdb as r
r.connect('localhost', 28015).repl()
twittertweets = r.db('tweets').table('twittertweets')
counter = 2139 #Start of counter, better to save / load from file
#Acknowledgments: Most of code from: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/TwitterSearch/ (Twitter Search Example)
#Modified python script by Tsubasa Kato (@stingraze)
try:
tso = TwitterSearchOrder() # create a TwitterSearchOrder object
tso.setKeywords(['supercomputer']) #Query to send to Twitter API
tso.setLanguage('en') # we want to see English tweets only
tso.setCount(7) # please dear Mr Twitter, only give us 7 results per page
tso.setIncludeEntities(False) # and don't give us all those entity information
# it's about time to create a TwitterSearch object with our secret tokens
ts = TwitterSearch(
consumer_key='xxxx',
consumer_secret='xxxx',
access_token='xxxx',
access_token_secret='xxxx')
for tweet in ts.searchTweetsIterable(tso): # this is where the fun actually starts :)
counter = counter + 1
print( '@%s tweeted: %s' % ( tweet['user']['screen_name'], tweet['text'] ) )
twittertweets.insert({"id": counter, "user": tweet['user'], "tweet": tweet['text']}).run() #Inserts tweets to RethinkDB
except TwitterSearchException as e: # take care of all those ugly errors if there are some
print(e)
