I have installed twint with:
pip3 install twint
which resulted in a successful installation:
Successfully installed twint-2.1.8
It works to get tweets from twitter
using Command Prompt(CLI) commands but when I try to run the example in Spyder
IDE it gives me the error:
"Traceback (most recent call last): File "<ipython-input-13-7b77905cef0c>", line 1, in <module> runfile('C:/Users/myname/twint.py', wdir='C:/Users/myname') File "C:\Users\myname\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\spyder_kernels\customize\spydercustomize.py", line 827, in runfile execfile(filename, namespace) File "C:\Users\myname\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\spyder_kernels\customize\spydercustomize.py", line 110, in execfile exec(compile(f.read(), filename, 'exec'), namespace) File "C:/Users/myname/twint.py", line 8, in <module> import twint File "C:\Users\myname\twint.py", line 9, in <module> c = twint.Config() AttributeError: module 'twint' has no attribute 'Config'
Here is my code:
import twintc = twint.Config()c.Username = "twitterAccountName"twint.run.Search(c)
However, I looked twint related issues on GitHub found here but the solution provided here not worked for me. Does anyone know where the error coming from? How do I fix it?
