reX

Since twitter dev removed the API for accessing user followers and following, developers have found it difficult to obtain this data. Here, I'm sharing my reverse engineering solution. If it's helpful to you, please let me know.

Installation

go get -u github.com/amovane/reX

Login

uname := os.Getenv("USER_NAME")
upwd := os.Getenv("PASSWORD")
x := reX.New()
wd, _ := os.Getwd()
cookiesPath := fmt.Sprintf("%s/cookies.json", wd)
err := x.SetCookies(cookiesPath)
if err != nil || !x.IsLoggedIn() {
    println("You must login first")
    x.Login(uname, upwd)
    x.SaveCookies(cookiesPath)
}

Followings

var cursor *string
var tweets []reX.UserResults
for {
    tweets, cursor, err = x.GetFollowingsByScreenName("shareverse_", cursor)
    for _, tweet := range tweets {
        println(tweet.Result.Legacy.ScreenName)
    }
    if cursor == nil || err != nil {
        break
    }
}

Followers

var cursor *string
var tweets []reX.UserResults
for {
    tweets, cursor, err = x.GetFollowerssByScreenName("shareverse_", cursor)
    for _, tweet := range tweets {
        println(tweet.Result.Legacy.ScreenName)
    }
    if cursor == nil || err != nil {
        break
    }
}

Is following

uid, _ := x.GetUserIDByScreenName("jarredsumner")
uidOfFollower, _ := x.GetUserIDByScreenName("cybermageek")
isFollowing := x.IsFollowing(uid, uidOfFollower)
