Question

我有一个tweet ID列表，我想要下载它们的文本内容。是否有任何简单的解决方案，最好通过Python脚本？我看过像Tweepy这样的其他库，看起来工作起来并不那么简单，手动下载它们是不可能的，因为我的列表很长。

Answer 1

您可以通过statuses/show/:id API route的ID来访问特定推文。大多数Python Twitter库遵循完全相同的模式，或为方法提供“友好”的名称。

例如，Twython提供了多种show_*方法，其中包括允许您加载特定推文的Twython.show_status()：

CONSUMER_KEY = "<consumer key>"
CONSUMER_SECRET = "<consumer secret>"
OAUTH_TOKEN = "<application key>"
OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET = "<application secret"
twitter = Twython(
    CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET,
    OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET)

tweet = twitter.show_status(id=id_of_tweet)
print(tweet['text'])

，返回的字典遵循API提供的Tweet object definition。

tweepy library使用tweepy.get_status()：

auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET)
auth.set_access_token(OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET)
api = tweepy.API(auth)

tweet = api.get_status(id_of_tweet)
print(tweet.text)

它返回一个稍微丰富的对象，但它上面的属性再次反映了已发布的API。

分享我以前的答案大大加速的工作（谢谢）。此Python 2.7脚本获取存储在文件中的推文ID的文本。调整输入数据格式的get_tweet_id（）; 原始配置为https://github.com/mdredze/twitter_sandy

的数据

更新2018年4月：迟到@someone错误报告（谢谢）。这个脚本不再丢弃每100个推文ID（这是我的错误）。请注意，如果推文因任何原因无法使用，则批量提取将以静默方式跳过它。如果响应大小与请求大小不同，脚本现在会发出警告。

您可以使用状态/查找端点批量访问推文（一次最多100个）：https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/get/statuses/lookup

Answer 4

我没有足够的声誉来添加实际评论，所以遗憾的是这是要走的路：

我在chrisinmtown的回答中发现了一个错误和奇怪的事情：

由于该错误，每100条推文都会被跳过。这是一个简单的解决方案：

        if len(tweet_ids) < 100:
            tweet_ids.append(tweet_id)
        else:
            tweet_ids.append(tweet_id)
            get_tweet_list(twapi, tweet_ids)
            tweet_ids = list()

使用效果更好，因为它甚至超过了速率限制。

api = tweepy.API(auth_handler=auth, wait_on_rate_limit=True, wait_on_rate_limit_notify=True)
