Question

我正在尝试获取前一天的所有推文。为了解决Twitter的速率限制，我实施了两组代码。

if counter == 4000:
    time.sleep(60*20) # wait for 20 min every time 4,000 tweets are extracted 
    counter == 0
    continue

我查看了输出文件，当我提取了大约5500-6500个推文实体时，通常会收到速率限制消息。因此，为了保守起见，我设置每次提取4000个推文（以及相关的提取字段），我暂停了20分钟（以覆盖Twitter指定的15分钟间隔）。

我还发现其他人试图使用以下代码解决同一问题：

except tweepy.TweepError:
    time.sleep(60*20)
    continue

当有一个TweepError时，它应该暂停脚本，我测试了它，但它似乎没有用，但我还是把它包括在内。

我得到的错误（在提取10,700个推文实体后）如下：

Traceback (most recent call last):

raise TweepError(error_msg, resp)
tweepy.error.TweepError: {"errors":[{"message":"Rate limit exceeded","code":88}]}
[Finished in 1937.2s with exit code 1]

这是我的代码：

import tweepy
import time
import csv

ckey = ""
csecret = ""
atoken = ""
asecret = ""

OAUTH_KEYS = {'consumer_key':ckey, 'consumer_secret':csecret,
    'access_token_key':atoken, 'access_token_secret':asecret}
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(OAUTH_KEYS['consumer_key'], OAUTH_KEYS['consumer_secret'])
api = tweepy.API(auth)

searchTerms = '"good book"'

counter = 0
for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, q=searchTerms, 
    since='2014-09-15', until='2014-09-16').items(999999999): # changeable here

    try:
        '''print "Name:", tweet.author.name.encode('utf8')
        print "Screen-name:", tweet.author.screen_name.encode('utf8')
        print "Tweet created:", tweet.created_at'''

        placeHolder = []
        placeHolder.append(tweet.author.name.encode('utf8'))
        placeHolder.append(tweet.author.screen_name.encode('utf8'))
        placeHolder.append(tweet.created_at)

        with open("TweetData_goodBook_15SEP2014_all.csv", "ab") as f: # changeable here
            writeFile = csv.writer(f)
            writeFile.writerow(placeHolder)

        counter += 1

        if counter == 4000:
            time.sleep(60*20) # wait for 20 min everytime 4,000 tweets are extracted 
            counter == 0
            continue

    except tweepy.TweepError:
        time.sleep(60*20)
        continue

    except IOError:
        time.sleep(60*2.5)
        continue

    except StopIteration:
        break

为什么Twitter使用Tweepy仍然存在限价错误？
