A Python library for direct interaction with Twitter's unofficial API

Project description

x_lolo

x_lolo is a Python library that allows direct use of Twitter's (formerly X) unofficial API without intermediaries, enhancing security.

Key Features

  • Direct interaction with Twitter's unofficial API
  • Developed based on reverse engineering of the API
  • Utilizes the HTTPS proxy mitmproxy for traffic analysis
  • No dependency on web scraping tools like Selenium
  • Automation capabilities for various Twitter interactions

Objectives

  • Provide a simple Python interface to interact with Twitter's API
  • Offer a secure alternative to traditional authentication methods
  • Allow developers to access Twitter features without relying on third-party services

Project Status

The project is currently under development. It is designed for developers who need direct control over interactions with Twitter's API. Currently implemented features include:

  • Authentication (login)
  • Session management (save/load)
  • Post creation and interaction
  • User information retrieval
  • Follower management
  • Post retrieval

Example Usage:

from x_lolo.session import Session

# Method 1: Create a new session and login
new_session = Session()
new_session.login(
    username_email="your_email@example.com",
    password="your_password",
    save_session_to="session_data.yaml",# Optional: save session for later use
)

# Method 2: Load an existing session
existing_session = Session(load_from="session_data.yaml")

# Create a post
post = existing_session.add_post("Hello, Twitter!")

# Get user information
user = existing_session.get_user_by_username("lolo")
print(f"User: {user.name}")
print(f"Followers: {user.followers_count}")

# Get current user information
me = existing_session.me()
print(f"My username: {me.username}")

# Get user's recent posts (with pagination)
user_posts = existing_session.get_user_posts("twitter", pagination_count=2)
for post in user_posts:
    print(f"Post content: {post.text_content}")
    print(f"Likes: {post.like_count}")
