-----------
INSTANTIATE
-----------

You can initialize with an bearer token:

.. code-block:: python

>>> from pytwitter import Api
>>> api = Api(bearer_token="Your bearer token")

With OAuth 1.0A user context token:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api = Api(
consumer_key="consumer key",
consumer_secret="consumer secret",
access_token="access token",
access_secret="access secret"
)

Or with authorization done by user:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api = Api(consumer_key="consumer key",consumer_secret="consumer secret",oauth_flow=True)
# get url for user to authorize
>>> api.get_authorize_url()
# copy the response url
>>> api.generate_access_token("https://localhost/?oauth_token=oauth_token&oauth_verifier=oauth_verifier")
{'oauth_token': 'oauth_token',
'oauth_token_secret': 'oauth_token_secret',
'user_id': '123456',
'screen_name': 'screen name'}

Twitter has `announced OAuth 2.0 user authentication support with fine-grained scopes `_

Now if you have app with ``OAuth2.0`` client ID. you can do authorize with ``OAuth2``.

.. code-block:: python

>>> api = Api(client_id="You client ID", oauth_flow=True)
# get the url and code verifier for user to authorize
>>> url, code_verifier, _ = api.get_oauth2_authorize_url()
# copy the response url
>>> api.generate_oauth2_access_token("https://localhost/?state=state&code=code", code_verifier)
{'token_type': 'bearer',
'expires_in': 7200,
'access_token': 'access_token',
'scope': 'users.read tweet.read',
'expires_at': 1631775928}

------------
Users-lookup
------------

You can get information about a user or group of users, specified by a user ID or a username.

Get group of users:

.. code-block:: python

# By ids
>>> api.get_users(ids=["783214", "2244994945"])
Response(data=[User(id='2244994945', name='Twitter Dev', username='TwitterDev'), User(id='783214', name='Twitter', username='Twitter')])

# By username
>>> api.get_users(usernames="Twitter,TwitterDev")
Response(data=[User(id='2244994945', name='Twitter Dev', username='TwitterDev'), User(id='783214', name='Twitter', username='Twitter')])

Get single user:

.. code-block:: python

# By id
>>> api.get_user(user_id="783214")
Response(data=User(id='783214', name='Twitter', username='Twitter'))

# By username
>>> api.get_user(username="Twitter")
Response(data=User(id='783214', name='Twitter', username='Twitter'))

Get user following:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api.get_following(user_id="2244994945", max_results=5)
Response(data=[User(id='459860328', name='julie✨', username='JulieMendoza206'), User(id='273830767', name='πŸ„ΏπŸ…„πŸ…‚πŸ„·', username='rahul_pushkarna')...])

Get user followers:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api.get_followers(user_id="2244994945", max_results=5)
Response(data=[User(id='715131097332518912', name='Daniel', username='RGIDaniel'), User(id='1176323137757048832', name='Joyce Wang', username='joycew67')...])

You can follow or unfollow user if you have User context.

follow user:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api.follow_user(user_id="123456", target_user_id="654321")
{'data': {'following': True, 'pending_follow': False}}

unfollow user:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api.unfollow_user(user_id="123456", target_user_id="654321")
{'data': {'following': False}}

-------------
Tweets-lookup
-------------

You can get information about a tweet or group of tweets by tweet id(s).

Get single tweet:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api.get_tweet("1354143047324299264", expansions=["attachments.media_keys"], media_fields=["type","duration_ms"])
Response(data=Tweet(id=1354143047324299264, text=Academics are one of the biggest groups using...))

Get group of tweets:

.. code-block:: python

>>> api.get_tweets(["1261326399320715264","1278347468690915330"],expansions="author_id",tweet_fields=["created_at"], user_fields=["username","verified"])
Response(data=[Tweet(id=1261326399320715264, text=Tune in to the @MongoDB @Twitch stream...), Tweet(id=1278347468690915330, text=Good news and bad news: 2020 is half over)])

-------------
Streaming API
-------------

For Streaming, this provide `StreamApi` independent. Same as main `Api`, You need initialize it first.

.. code-block:: python

>>> from pytwitter import StreamApi
>>> stream_api = StreamApi(bearer_token="bearer token")
# or use consumer key and secret
>>> stream_api = StreamApi(consumer_key="consumer key", consumer_secret="consumer secret")

For Sample Stream tweets, you can use the `sample_stream` function to build a connection.

.. code-block:: python

>>> stream_api.sample_stream()

For Filtered Stream, you can create rules.

Get your current rules.

.. code-block:: python

>>> stream_api.get_rules()
Response(data=[StreamRule(id='1369580714056843266', value='twitter api ')])

Delete your rules.

.. code-block:: python

>>> stream_api.manage_rules(rules={"delete": {"ids": ["1369580714056843266"]}})
Response(data=[])

Add new rules. If you set `dry_run` to True, will only validate rules, and not create them.

.. code-block:: python

>>> np = {
"add": [
{"value": "cat has:media", "tag": "cats with media"},
{"value": "cat has:media -grumpy", "tag": "happy cats with media"}
]
}
>>> stream_api.manage_rules(rules=np, dry_run=True)
Response(data=[StreamRule(id='1370406958721732610', value='cat has:media -grumpy'), StreamRule(id='1370406958721732609', value='cat has:media')])

Then you can use `search_stream` to get tweets matching your rules.

.. code-block:: python

>>> stream_api.search_stream()

You can go to the `Example folder `_ for streaming examples.
