同一日期当我尝试从 tweepy 获取推文时

Question

I'm trying to sample tweets with tweepy . I wanted to get, for example, 100 tweets between today Apr 14th and Apr 8. But when I try:

search_words = "#COVID"
date_until = "2020-04-09"

tweets = twepy.Cursor(api.search,
              q=search_words,
              lang="en",
              until = date_until, count = 100,
                     since = date_since).items(100)

I get the following result with tweets from same day:

2020-04-08 23:58:23    3
2020-04-08 23:59:46    3

Tweets with the same date only differing in some minutes...

Answer 1

add the following in your code

wait_on_rate_limit – Whether or not to automatically wait for rate limits to replenish

here is my reference

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