python - How to get twitter followers using Twython? -
i want list of twitter followers/following of particular user, when screenname or user.id specified. can please give code snippet it? thanks.
i'm author of twython. there's 2 different methods can use this; 1 returns follower ids (get_followers_ids), , 1 returns statuses/etc of follower set (get_followers_list).
some example code 1 following:
from twython import twython twitter = twython() followers = twitter.get_followers_ids(screen_name = "ryanmcgrath") follower_id in followers: print "user id %d following ryanmcgrath" % follower_id
if have ids, you'd need further lookups yourself, latter method (get_followers_list) may want. keep in mind twython functions mirror api key parameters official twitter api docs, methods can pass argument same you'll find on docs.
good luck!
