I'm not sure where this error originated from as I have not used tweets_analyzer in the past. I will say that it returns this error every time I try to run from the CLI.

[!] Twitter error: [{u'message': u'SSL is required', u'code': 92}]

tweets-analyzer -n TwitterDev
[+] Getting @twitterdev account data...
[!] Twitter error: [{u'message': u'SSL is required', u'code': 92}]

Hello, I was wondering whether is possible to analyse multiple users with a single run.
Thanks for the great script

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tweets_analyzer.py", line 26, in
import tweepy
ImportError: No module named tweepy

The above error is appearing when i try to run the command python tweets_analyzer.py -n

The tqdm error below was emitted when trying to run tweets_analyzer on OpenBSD6.3 using python2.7:

Error: 'NoneType' object is not callable Exception AttributeError: "'tqdm' object has no attribute 'disable'" in <object repr() failed> ignored

p.s: i commented out numpy in requirements.txt before doing pip install since 1) my currently installed version of numpy module is higher than version specified in the requirements.txt 2) trying to install the version numpy specified in requirements.txt has previously failed, breaking other apps thatsthat requires it.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tweets_analyzer.py", line 25, in
from tqdm import tqdm
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tqdm'

Please advice . This is after running pip install -r requirements.txt

Some people tweet less, but like lots of stuff. Likes can be used to determine at what hours of day accounts are active.

I'd like to see a distribution of tweets over years. Like, did I wasted too much time on Twitter while I was a student, and suddenly dropped it all after I was into crack smoking - or got pregnant.

Hi, how are you ?
I am using your script and I get this error after executing this command:
"python2 tweets_analyzer.py -n someUSERNAME".

The error is:
[!] Twitter error: [{u'message': u'Invalid or expired token.', u'code': 89}].

how to overcome this issue ?

Thanks in advance.

hi need help to get api key it's hard to create an api apps

I get this error, suggesting I use --limit, and the average given for daily posts looks to be roughly double what it should be.

I am trying to do request on users/lookup route of Twitter API using params of Email/Phone. In the result I am getting error
Could not authenticate you. in response

While using the same credentials when i do request for screen_name, user_id lookup I am getting perfect Response. Not only that all other api requests like home_timeline, followers_ids, friends_ids, etc are working fine with same credentials but on that specific request, I am getting this error. My Request is:

import requests

url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/users/lookup.json?map=true&phone=1234567890"

payload = {}

headers = {
    'Authorization': 'OAuth realm="http%3A%2F%2Fapi.twitter.com",oauth_consumer_key="<consumer_key>",oauth_token="<outh_token>",oauth_signature_method="HMAC-SHA1",oauth_timestamp="1595318479",oauth_nonce="<nonce>",oauth_version="1.0",oauth_signature="<sig>"'
}

response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers, data = payload)
print(response.text.encode('utf8'))

In Response I am getting this Error:

{
    "errors": [
        {
            "code": 32,
            "message": "Could not authenticate you."
        }
    ]
}

What are the reasons and suggestions on this ?
Will appreciate the positive feedback.

Any option ? Not supported yet?

Twitter change their API to new level API v1.1, and discontinued the support of XML, Atom, and RSS and instead they’re now supporting JSON only

Does this script guess location of the Twitter Target?

Quand je lance le script avec l'option --friends, j'ai cette erreur :
[!] Error: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

Apparemment, ça se produit dans print_stats() avec l'argument friends_lang, au moment d'attribuer une valeur à max_len_key.

Hi, using your example of Snowden's account I'm getting the following.

I've configured secrets.py and secrets.pyc exists. All of the requirements installed correctly. Any idea what I've done wrong?

It may sound stupid to try to analyze tweets from an user who never tweeted, still it should fail nicely.

$ tweets_analyzer -n <SomeSilentUser>
[+] Getting @SomeSilentUser account data...
[+] lang           : fr

[+] statuses_count : 0
[+] Retrieving last 0 tweets...
0tw [00:00, ?tw/s]
[!] Error: 'int' object has no attribute 'days'

The --no-retweets flag doesn't seem to be working anymore. While it did in the past, now whenever I run tweets_analyzer, it returns the same average number of tweets per day regardless of whether or not I use the flag.

Possible de retirer les xxxx de secrets.py ?

C'est un peu "relou" lorsque l'on doit renseigner ses clés :P

Can this be put on a server so that i can get a GET response?

Variable name sum might create some issues down the line as it is also a built-in function name.

Bonjour,

Peux-tu ajouter une fonction d'exportation, json, html, txt, peu importe.

Hi! Are you planning on working to support the V2 Api?

With Python 3.10 (on Debian testing), I have the error Error: module 'collections' has no attribute 'Iterable'. Indeed, it seems that collections.Iterable is deprecated since Python 3.9.

After some debugging, the issue is in print_charts function.

Hi all,

Hope you are all well !

Is there an easy way to screenshot like in the readme the results of the analyzer into a PNG ?

It would be great as it could combined with tools like botometer and publish a tweet with a summary like
or https://twitter.com/StattoBot/status/1108268411539345408

Moved to Linux and transferred the files I had on my Mac setup and installed the requirements successfully

But when I ran received this error message
Exception KeyError: KeyError(<weakref at 0x7ff9973b9e68; to 'tqdm' at 0x7ff99c7d3490>,) in <bound method tqdm.del of 0%|
I regenerated the Consumer and Access key and tokens and tried again and got a similar error
Exception KeyError: KeyError(<weakref at 0x7effb10f3e10; to 'tqdm' at 0x7effb6526750>,) in <bound method tqdm.del of 0%| | 0/30 [00:00<?, ?tw/s]> ignored

Any thoughts on what is going on and how to fix this?

Thanks,

Hey,
I think it would be interesting to have another list with a "top 5 most liked/favourited users" to fully see relationships between accounts.
Sadly I have no idea about how to implement this 😢

Followed the install and verified ascii_graph is installed:

asciigraph -h
Usage: asciigraph [-l ] [-f file] [-s inc|dec]
[-c] [-t [-T ]
[-w ] [-m ] [-H] [-M cs|si]
<<<

• repeated install or requirements

But every time the tweet_analyzer is run

File "./tweets_analyzer.py", line 22, in
from ascii_graph import Pyasciigraph
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ascii_graph'

Is it possible to run an analysis (including colored ascii graph) by loading a prior exported/saved -e export_file or a -s json_file ?

This would make for proper data analysis without exploding the API usage

Install builds well until numpy. I have version 1.19.4 installed. Error results in 10 pages of error code. I have no idea what to even provide to you as it seems a bit crazy. Is this project still active?

why is this happening, i have done that in "secret.py"

Does the average number of tweets per day count include retweets? If so, would you consider adding an option to ignore retweets in calculating this average (perhaps with the --no-retweets flag)? Thanks!

Hi,
Can you help me I have this issue...

Since Twint does not require an API to work, is it possible to update this repo to use Twint?
This might sound like a tall order, but unless we are dealing with sensitive accounts this is a good improvement,

This is so great! Hi How can I export the results?

Hi,

I am fairly new to this. When I run the program I continually get the following error message:

Twitter error: [{u'message' : u'Bad Authentication data.' , u 'code' : 215}]

What could be the culprit?

Thanks

After downloading user tweets, the script crashes while converting for graphs

"Daily activity distribution (per hour)

I tracked it down to daily and weekly distribution activity charts printing.
Both are crashing, so commenting the daily distribution activity does not work as the weekly one crashes too.
