Cursors / Pagination for another user's followers..

[DennisPi]

Hello All,

I'm trying to get a complete list of a user's followers.

I get the user by calling (note: I don't want the authenticated user's
followers... I want a specified user's followers..) thus:

user = tweepy.api.get_user("ev")

I realize that user.followers() only contains 100 followers... and
thus the need for pagination.

I've been trying: for x in Cursor(user.followers).items():

But I get the error: "This method does not perform pagination"

What should I be doing instead?

Thanks!
Dennis

did you get this figured out?

[Correa Denzil]

follower_cursors = tweepy.Cursor(api.followers, id = screen_name)

for follower_cursor in follower_cursors.items():

     follower_cursor.screen_name

I think this should work. It works for me.

--Regards,
Denzil

Hi All,

I am trying to do the same thing with followers_ids but it is not working for me. Is it something to do with the version.

This works :

          iterator = Cursor(apiCall, user_id=userId).pages()
          for ids in iterator:
               ....

here, ids is a list of user ids (numbers)
