Tweepy

  • Tweepy is a Python library that can be used to collect data from Twitter. It does so by accessing the Twitter API.
  • Tweepy needs to be installed onto a machine that already has Python installed, and can operate on both Windows and macOS.
  • Tweepy requires, at minimum, a basic understanding of Python, and will be significantly easier to use the more familiar a user is with Python.
  • Tweepy is free and can be used to collect tweets using keywords, hashtags or user mentions. It can also be used to collect tweets from a specific user’s profile.
  • Tweepy is currently functional.
