Question

我在我的网络应用程序中使用python-twitter发布这样的推文：

import twitter
twitter_api = twitter.Api(
    consumer_key="BlahBlahBlah",
    consumer_secret="BlahBlahBlah",
    access_token_key="BlahBlahBlah",
    access_token_secret="BlahBlahBlah",
)
twitter_api.PostUpdate("Hello World")

如何删除已发布的所有推文？我无法找到如何操作的文档。

Answer 1

twitter_api.PostUpdate("Hello World")应返回Status个对象。该Status对象还包含有关状态的信息，according to their source is present as an attribute。

twitter_api.destroyStatus显然是他们拥有的POST statuses/destroy Twitter请求的方法。要销毁状态，需要status.id作为参数。

所以：

status = twitter_api.PostUpdate("hello world")
twitter_api.destroyStatus(status.id)

应该足够了。似乎没有办法批量删除内容，您必须先获取内容，然后逐个状态删除它。

从时间轴中获取序列（我猜这是可迭代的）是使用twitter_api.GetUserTimeline完成的，每次都有200条限制。这应该允许您抓取推文，检查是否有结果，如果迭代它们并使用destroyStatus删除它们。

在从命令提示符运行脚本之前，Windows用户需要在其控制台中运行命令“chcp 65001”。
