I'm trying to retrieve a user's timeline. The api says you can get (at the most) 3,200 tweets. I only seem to know how to get 20 using this code:
def gather_tweets_from(user)
tweets = []
file = File.open("tweets_from.txt","w")
client.user_timeline(user).each { |tweet|
file.puts tweet.text
}
end
gather_tweets_from(user)
Please help me out, Thanks :)
The user_timeline function lets you specify certain options. What you're looking for is something like
client.user_timeline(user, :count => 200).each { |tweet|
file.puts tweet.text
