Here is a tutorial to setup Twint & automate processes:

photo_2022-06-10_18-01-22

  1. pip install aiohttp==3.7.0

  2. Install dependencies using commands shown in the github page.

  3. Test the installation and Make sure it works finely & all requirements are installed.

    	twint -u "elonmusk"
    
  4. Once it is installed and works, fix language problem as shown below:

    Type "pip show twint" into the command line, follow the path shown at "Location", then open the folder named "twint" and change these lines in the file "url.py":

     	101    if conif.Lang:
     	102        q += f" lang:{config.Lang}"
     	
     	110    if config.Search:
     	111        q += f" {config.Search}"
     	
    ```Uncomment line 92: # ('query_source', 'typed_query') -> ('query_source', 'typed_query')
    
  5. Now if you run "ex.py", the scraping will start.

  6. Scraping results for each day will be saved separately in json files in folder ./json-files

  7. Scraping logs for each day will be saved in folder ./logs

"ex.py" will create folders "./logs" and "./json-files" itself
