使用 tweepy 提取推文

Question

I have tried using tweepy to extract tweets for a specific keyword.But the count of extracted tweets using tweepy is less compared those tweets for the specific keyword as seen on twitter search. Also I want to know how to effectively extract ALL the tweets for a specific keyword of interest using any twitter data extracting library (tweepy/twython). I also face a problem of irrelevant tweets with same keyword coming up.Is there a way to fine tune search and perform accurate extraction so that I get all the tweets extracted for the specific keyword. Im adding the code snippet as many asked for it.But I don't have a problem with the code as its running.

tweets = api.search('Mexican Food', count=500,tweet_mode = 'extended')
data = pd.DataFrame(data=[tweet.full_text for tweet in tweets], columns 
['Tweets'])
data.head(10)
print(tweets[0].created_at)

My question is that how to get ALL the tweets with a particular keyword.For example when I run the above code ,for each time I am getting different count of tweets.Also I cross checked with doing manual search on twitter and it seems that there are much more tweets than extracted through tweepy for the particular keyword. Also I want to know if there is any way to fine tune the keyword search through python so that all the relevant tweets for my keyword of interest is fetched.

Answer 1

The thing is when you use tweepy It has some limitation. It won't be able to fetch older tweets. So I will suggest you to use https://github.com/Jefferson-Henrique/GetOldTweets-python in place of tweepy to fetch the older tweets.
