Quick Start Guide

Here's a quick bit of code to get the most recent trending on TikTok. There's more example in the examples directory.

from TikTokApi import TikTokApi
api = TikTokApi()

results = 10

trending = api.trending(results)

for tiktok in trending:
    # Prints the text of the tiktok
    print(tiktok['desc'])

print(len(trending))

Here's an example of what a tiktok dictionary looks like.

Detailed Documentation

The TikTok class

TikTokApi(self, debug=False)

debug - Enable this if you need some more output.

The Trending Method

# Where count is how many result you want
# Verbose is optional, default=0. Set it to 1 to get more information
api.trending(self, count=30, referrer="https://www.tiktok.com/@ondymikula/video/6756762109670477061")

count - this is how many trending Tiktoks you want to be returned.

Trending returns an array of dictionaries. Example structure here

The get_Video_By_TikTok Method

api.get_Video_By_TikTok(data)

data - The tiktok dictionary returned from the API. Will return bytes.

The get_Video_By_DownloadURL Method

api.get_Video_By_DownloadURL(url)

url - The download url that's found in the TikTok dictionary. TikTok['video']['downloadAddr']

The get_Video_By_Url Method

api.get_Video_By_Url(video_url, return_bytes=0)

video_url - The video you want to get url.

return_bytes - The default value is 0, when it is set to 1 the function instead returns the bytes from the video rather than just the direct url.
