Setup

npm i twitter-openapi-typescript

Usage

import { TwitterOpenApi } from 'twitter-openapi-typescript';

const api = new TwitterOpenApi();
const client = await api.getGuestClient();
const response = await client.getUserApi().getUserByScreenName({ screenName: 'elonmusk' });
const userLegacy = response.data?.user?.legacy;
if (userLegacy) {
  console.log(userLegacy.screenName);
  console.log(`followCount: ${userLegacy.friendsCount} followersCount: ${userLegacy.followersCount}`);
} else {
  console.log('User not found');
}

Login

// ct0 and authToken will also work but it is recommended to set all cookies.
const client = await api.getClientFromCookies({
  ct0: '<csrf_token>',
  auth_token: '<auth_token>',
});

Multiple OS

The Token can only be used on the same OS that issued the Token In other words, if the sec-ch-ua-platform does not match, the Token cannot be used. This library uses the Linux Chrome header by default. To use Token issued by Windows, do the following.

const api = new TwitterOpenApi();
api.setAdditionalApiHeaders({
  'sec-ch-ua-platform': '"Windows"',
});
