This example shows a script that searches Twitter for tweets containing the query "TenagaNasionalBerhad" and prints each tweet’s text to the console. It uses the Tweepy library to authenticate with Twitter’s API via OAuth credentials and to perform the search. The code defines a `limit_handled` generator that catches `tweepy.error.TweepError` exceptions and pauses for 15 minutes before continuing, though the current script only iterates over a single page of search results without invoking that handler. The data source is Twitter’s live search endpoint.

Twitter autoresponder bot

This example shows a PHP Twitter autoresponder bot that monitors the Twitter Search API for specific keywords and automatically replies to matching tweets. The code uses the PECL OAuth extension to authenticate with Twitter API 1.1, performing searches for configured terms like "over 9000" and posting responses via the statuses/update endpoint. It tracks the last replied-to tweet ID in a local file to avoid duplicates, verifies account credentials, and includes command-line OAuth authorization for initial setup.

Super-simple cursor twitter bot framework

This example shows a minimal Twitter bot framework that continuously scans for tweets containing variations of “Hello world” and prints each matching tweet alongside a randomly selected comment phrase. It uses the Tweepy library to authenticate with Twitter’s API via OAuth and iterates through search results with `tweepy.Cursor`. For each found tweet, the code prints the author’s screen name and text, then constructs a status message embedding the tweet’s URL; retweeting and posting are commented out, while a five-second sleep prevents rate limiting. The data source is live Twitter search results, and the rendering is plain text output to the console.

A script to download all of a user's tweets into a csv

This script downloads a user’s entire tweet history into a CSV file, preserving each tweet’s ID, creation timestamp, and text. It demonstrates the Twitter API’s pagination limits by repeatedly fetching batches of 200 tweets via Tweepy’s `user_timeline` method, using the `max_id` parameter to retrieve older tweets until none remain. The final output is written with Python’s built-in `csv` module, encoding text as UTF-8. The example relies on Tweepy for API authentication and data retrieval, and shows a practical pattern for handling rate-limited, cursor-based API responses.

This example demonstrates a workflow for collecting and structuring Twitter data through the streaming API. It uses the `tweepy` library to authenticate and open a live stream, filtering tweets by specified terms or hashtags, and saving each raw tweet as a JSON line to a file. The code then reads that file back, parses each tweet, and extracts selected fields into a nested list, including the text, user handle, favorite and retweet counts, timestamp, follower count, and language. Finally, it organizes the data into a structured pandas DataFrame with corresponding column names, preparing it for further analysis or visualization.

This example demonstrates a command-line workflow for authenticating a Twitter user via OAuth and displaying their rate-limit status. It shows the authorization URL, prompts for a PIN, and exchanges it for an access token using the `twitter_oauth` gem. The script then outputs the rate-limit data as YAML and prints the token and secret. It relies on the `TwitterOAuth::Client` class and the `request_token`, `authorize`, and `rate_limit_status` methods, with user input handled through standard input.

This example streams live tweets matching hashtags like #DoctorWho and #DrWho, saving each tweet’s metadata to a CSV file using the Twitter API and the `twitter` Python package. It demonstrates real-time data collection, extracting fields such as user location, follower count, and coordinates. The code handles truncated tweets by fetching extended text, and it cleans nested dictionary values with helper functions. No visualization is rendered; the focus is purely on acquiring and structuring streaming social media data for later analysis.

This example scrapes Instagram profile and post data to track follower counts, likes, comments, captions, and post dates for selected users, associating each entry with an industry topic. The script uses Selenium to automate login and search, BeautifulSoup to parse the page source, and the Instagram GraphQL data embedded in `window._sharedData` to extract metrics. It writes the collected records to a CSV via pandas, pausing with random sleeps to avoid detection. The visualization highlights how social-media engagement varies across profiles and industries over time.

Requires

This example demonstrates scraping public Twitter profiles with Puppeteer, a headless Chrome automation library, to extract tweet content, timestamps, embedded image URLs, and adaptive media containers. It also shows scraping a live webpage via the Wayback Machine to capture a full-page screenshot at 1920x1080 resolution. The script uses Puppeteer’s `page.evaluate` to run DOM queries, Bluebird’s `Promise.delay` for controlled waiting, and `fs-extra` to write the collected tweet data as JSON. It navigates pages, clicks "show more" links, and scrolls to trigger dynamic content loading before saving results.
