Description Usage Arguments Details Value

View source: R/lookup_users.R

Description

Automate users data collection for a large number of users (via lookup_users)

Usage

1
lookup_users_download(x, output = NULL, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

x

Either a data frame or character vector containing user identifiers for which users will be retrieved. See details for more information about how this works.

output

Optionally supply a preexisting output vector (like that returned by this function)–if NULL, the default, this function will start fresh.

verbose

Whether the function should print information/status updates, defaults to TRUE. Setting this to FALSE will silent most printing.

Details

This function attempts to lookup users information for as many as 90,000 users every 15 minutes, sleeping between calls until Twitter's API rate limit resets.

It's worth noting that information on many users will not be returned due to changed screen names, account suspensions, deactivations, etc.

Value

Returns a list data frames with looked up user information. See lookup_users for more information.
