Hi the below script helps to read tweets from our timeline and save it to a .pickle file to be later parsed and analyzed.

There is a limit to how many entries you can get in any call and also has feature for pagination. For learning more on Twitter’s API, please check its online documentation.

I use tweepy library for the script and this is a simple example, more details for the library can be found in the below link.

Please find the code details below and for any feedback please contact me on https://twitter.com/twitmyreview.
