First, make sure Python and Tweepy installed well, and the network setup well.
Then, you go to http://dev.twitter.com and log in ,and go to my application, get your ckey/csecret/atoken/asecret
Then, we create the .py file: PS4.py:
from tweepy import Stream from tweepy import OAuthHandler from tweepy.streaming import StreamListener import time ckey = 'VUHR4W*******1ZSDEKQ' csecret = 'BqJSl0dbI*************48qdmWKJ1CKmxKbl8JUw5k' atoken = '2207681958******************BMx6UWBzEonhKkhkkeDEOJC' asecret = 'GQTeOedbv*****************GnrsUrZR0ItMJ6BarJnKorI3' class listener(StreamListener): def on_data(self, data): try: ## print data date = data.split('created_at":"')[1].split('","id')[0] tweet = data.split(',"text":"')[1].split('","source')[0] screen_name = data.split(',"screen_name":"')[1].split('","location')[0] location = data.split(',"location":"')[1].split('","url')[0] followers_count = data.split(',"followers_count":')[1].split(',"friends_count')[0] saveThis = date+""+tweet+";;;"+screen_name+";;;"+location+";;;"+followers_count print saveThis ## saveFile = open('twitDB11.txt','a') ## ## saveFile.write(saveThis) ## ## saveFile.write(' ') ## ## saveFile.close() return True except BaseException, e: print 'failed ondata,', str(e) time.sleep(5) def on_error(self, status): print status auth = OAuthHandler(ckey, csecret) auth.set_access_token(atoken, asecret) twitterStream = Stream(auth, listener()) twitterStream.filter(track=["PS4"])
Then, we open it and run it. Colleting data like this:
