The goal of rtweetstats is to improve accessibility of Twitter analyses for the average R user through two functions; keystats and userstats. The former analyzes user-specified keywords and hashtags, returning an HTML ouput with various summary graphics while the latter analyzes the pages of user-specified Twitter users, returning an HTML output with account summary information as well as the user-specified number of most recent tweets.
You can install this package with the following code:
if(!require(devtools)){
install.packages("devtools")
}
devtools::install_github("annasophiepeters/rtweetstats")This is a basic example which shows you how to use each of the functions:
library(rtweetstats)
keystats("data science", n=1000, top_num = 20)
userstats(c("taylorswift13","katyperry"), 1000, year = 2019, x=5)
