Issue with Twitter login and tweets access

[Yann Barraud]

Hi,

I'm scrapping my twitts and having an issue :

1. I'm getting logged on twitter (OK)
2. I'm opening a twitt
1. Getting an error
2. Refrshing and it's OK

It is kinda weird. What am I doing wrong?

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import getpass

username = "XXXXX"
login = getpass.getpass("Twitter login :")
password = getpass.getpass("Twitter password :")
driver = webdriver.Firefox()

def login_twitter(username, password):
    driver.get("https://twitter.com/login")

    username_field = driver.find_element_by_name("session[username_or_email]")
    password_field = driver.find_element_by_name("session[password]")

    username_field.send_keys(username)

    password_field.send_keys(password)

    driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@data-testid='LoginForm_Login_Button']").click()

# deleting phase
def delete_twitt(twittid):
    base_url = "https://twitter.com/" + username + "/status/"
    twitt_url = base_url + twittid

    driver.get(twitt_url)
    driver.implicitly_wait(3)
    driver.refresh()
    try:
        driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@data-testid='caret']").click()
        del_button = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[contains(text(), 'Supprimer')]")
        del_button.click()
        driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@data-testid='confirmationSheetConfirm']").click()
    except:
        print(twitt_url)

login_twitter(login, password)
for tweet in json_twitts[300:350]:
    tweet_id = tweet['tweet']['id']
    delete_twitt(tweet_id)

Thanks for support.

Yann

It’s against twitter’s ToS to do this sort of thing.
