I'm trying to create a data stream in Python using the Twitter API, but I'm unable to import the StreamListener
correctly.
Here's my code:
import tweepy
from tweepy import Stream
from tweepy.streaming import StreamListener
class MyListener(StreamListener):
def on_data(self, data):
try:
with open('python.json', 'a') as f:
f.write(data)
return True
except BaseException as e:
print("Error on_data: %s" % str(e))
return True
def on_error(self, status):
print(status)
return True
twitter_stream = Stream(auth, MyListener())
twitter_stream.filter(track=['#python'])
And I'm getting this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "c:\Users\User\Documents\GitHub\tempCodeRunnerFile.python", line 6, in <module>
from tweepy.streaming import StreamListener
ImportError: cannot import name 'StreamListener' from 'tweepy.streaming' (C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\tweepy\streaming.py)
Tweepy v4.0.0 was released yesterday and it merged StreamListener
into Stream
.
I recommend updating your code to subclass Stream
instead.
Alternatively, you can downgrade to v3.10.0.
