Describe the bug I have setup a systemd service to monitor the start of Twitter spaces, and the time interval of running the command is 20 seconds. I do have multiple services monitoring multiple accounts, so it's normal to see some 429 Too Many Requests returned from the Twitter API. However, the response content didn't seem to be valid JSON (likely HTML), and it would cause a JSONDecodeError to be raised.

To Reproduce

twspace_dl --input-cookie-file "$twitter_cookies" -suU "https://twitter.com/$username" -o '/tmp/twspace_dl-%(creator_screen_name)s' -m -v

Expected behavior It's not a big issue, but I think it would be better if this can be handled properly. Maybe retry after a timeout, or a better error message?

Hi, I have worked on these download jobs before. I would suggest using this one instead of user_tweet https://twitter.com/i/api/fleets/v1/avatar_content?user_ids={userIds}&only_spaces=true as I have met some people does not share the spaces to tweet. This method allows multi-user.

The only problem is it may be connection aborted.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. About login / cookie

Describe the solution you'd like Check the cookie is expired, and if the cookie is not expired, not login

Additional context

twspace_dl.py -U https://twitter.com/[user] --input-cookie-file cookie.txt login -u [username] -p [password] -o cookie.txt

When I run script like this, twspace-dl only gets a cookie, and not download twitter space. As I reffered #27, we need to check cookie file first, and it exists and not expired, skip login and trying to get and download twitter space.

This method will be better when run as Docker or Service (We can run as only one commands).

Hi, I am using this script on Ubuntu 20.04.2.

I have installed the script from PyPI, but the script returns the following error when I try to download from a live twitter spaces (direct link) or user URL:

Is there anything I can do to fix it? Seems like I am the only one facing this issue so far. I am not sure is it due to some dependencies or other factors.

Also, when downloading using -U, some users are not being shown as live even thought the Spaces is still live. I made sure the user selected is the Host of the spaces.

Hi,

I'm totally noob using this kind of softwares and I would like to request a step by step user guide for to download a Twitter Space.

Kind regards,

Closes: #2

When executing twspace_dl -i <url> with -l or --log, log file (.twspace-dl.%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S_%s.log) will be created in pwd.

Describe the bug On a Twitter space that recently ended, saw this error for some minutes. Retrying the same download again a bit later worked fine. Maybe just a transient Twitter issue with the data they provided for a recently ended space, and not something twspace-dl needs to worry about.

To Reproduce Tried to download a recently ended space (ended a few minutes prior):

$ twspace_dl -m -i https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1DXxyDqgdbNJM?s=20

Expected behavior Download the space successfully

Additional context Workaround: wait some time and retry the same download. Appears to be a temporary Twitter issue with the data Twitter returns shortly after a space ends. Wait a few minutes or more and try the same download again, it should work.

Describe the bug When downloading ongoing Space, the final file would have duplicate audio segments at the place of merging.

If I understand the code correctly, twspace-dl works by downloading existing segments using master_playlist.m3u8, then downloading new parts using the dyn url, then merge them together at the end.

The issue here is that no attempt is made to make sure the two don't have overlapping. And in my observation, they do.

cut.m4a.zip

In this example (cut the very first 30s of a long space), one or two segments repeat at 17.7s and 23.7s.

This issue only happens with running Space so it's kinda hard to give a easy STR.

Describe the bug After fixing #71 in commit 7fad013, a new bug was introduced that the files in the temporary directory will be removed but not the directory itself if --keep-files was NOT used.

To Reproduce twspace_dl --input-cookie-file twitter.txt -suU "https://twitter.com/username" -m -v

Expected behavior Temporary directories and their content got removed after running the command when --keep-files was not used.

Output

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Ubuntu Linux 22.04.1 LTS
• twspace-dl Version: 6c57161
• Installation method: pip from GitHub repo

Simplest way to fix #63: consider download finished if there is existing file in working directory that has the same name as one that would be created.

In situation when space ended but still available for replay, running twspace_dl -U more than once will result in .m4a file being downloaded again and replacing already existing one. If systemd unit with RestartSec=15 is used, new download will be started as soon as old one finishes the entire time space stays available.

Checking if file with given name already exists before starting download would prevent this from happening. yt-dlp also has --download-archive option, which maintains list of id of successful downloads and skips over them if called twice.

Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

To Reproduce python3 ./twspace_dl/__main__.py -i https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1MYxNnkdkPPxw -v

Expected behavior begin to download the space audio.

twspace-dl is not in command, so I run it in source code lib

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. This is more like a nice to have. But I think it'd be great if we have an option to automatically upload downloaded content to say an s3 bucket. This is useful when others use twspace-dl to build something like a webapp or just want things organized nicely in S3.

Describe the solution you'd like

1. Add an option to take a S3 bucket
2. A module to use S3 SDK to upload to the S3 bucket with credentials from .env

Describe alternatives you've considered Upload manually

Happy to help if the approach can be aligned :)
