Twitter Scraper

Golang implementation of python library https://github.com/kennethreitz/twitter-scraper

Twitter's API is annoying to work with, and has lots of limitations — luckily their frontend (JavaScript) has it's own API, which I reverse-engineered. No API rate limits. No tokens needed. No restrictions. Extremely fast.

You can use this library to get the text of any user's Tweets trivially.

Usage

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    twitterscraper "github.com/n0madic/twitter-scraper"
)

func main() {
    for tweet := range twitterscraper.GetTweets("kennethreitz", 25) {
        fmt.Println(tweet.HTML)
    }
}

It appears you can ask for up to 25 pages of tweets reliably (~486 tweets).

Installation

go get -u github.com/n0madic/twitter-scraper
