get_followers: Get followers and follows of an actor

Description

Get followers and follows of an actor

Usage

get_followers(
  actor,
  limit = 25L,
  cursor = NULL,
  parse = TRUE,
  verbose = NULL,
  .token = NULL
)
get_follows(
  actor,
  limit = 25L,
  cursor = NULL,
  parse = TRUE,
  verbose = NULL,
  .token = NULL
)

Value

a data frame (or nested list) of found actors.

Arguments

actor

user handle to look up followers for.

limit

Maximum number of records to return. For queries with more than 100 results, pagination is used automatically (one request per 100 results). The function stops when the limit is reached, but you will usually get a few items more than requested.

cursor

Cursor for pagination (to pick up an old search).

parse

Parse the results or return the original nested object sent by the server.

verbose

Whether to print status messages to the Console (TRUE/FALSE). Package default (when NULL) is to have status messages. Can be changed with Sys.setenv(ATR_VERBOSE = FALSE).

.token

If you manage your own tokens, you can supply it here. Usually NULL is OK and will automatically load or guide you to generate a token.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
get_followers("benguinaudeau.bsky.social")

# get first page of results
follows_df <- get_follows("favstats.eu", limit = 25L)

# continue same search, starting from the next match
follows_df2 <- get_follows("favstats.eu", limit = 25L,
                           cursor = attr(follows_df, "last_cursor"))
}
