Twista

Twista is a Twitter streaming and analysis command line tool suite implemented in Python 3. It provides the following core features:

  • to record Tweets (statuses, replies, retweets, replies) from the public Twitter streaming API in a standardized way,
  • to import collected chunks of Tweets into a Neo4j graph database for analysis.
  • The graph database can be used for analysis. We recommand to make use of tools like Jupyter. Twista provides integrated support for Jupyter. Try the twista lab command to start Jupyter with the current config file.

Installation

Twista is hosted on PyPi. Therefore, it can be easily installed:

pip3 install twista

Type

$ twista

to get an overview of existing Twista commands.

``` Usage: twista [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Commands: import Imports Twitter records into a Neo4j graph database init Initializes a directory to be used with Twista lab Starts Jupyter lab for analysis record Records a Twitter stream stop Stops the Neo4j database version Reports the version of Twista ```

We recommend to study the Wiki on how to record and analyze public Twitter streams using Twista and graph databases.
