Available Functions

js
// timelineViewer.js
XActions.switchTo('for-you')     // Switch to For You timeline
XActions.switchTo('following')   // Switch to Following timeline
XActions.collect()               // Start collecting posts
XActions.export()                // Export collected posts as JSON
XActions.abort()                 // Stop collection

// timelineScraper.js
XActions.scrape({ maxPosts: 200 }) // Scrape with custom limit
XActions.results()                  // Get collected results
XActions.download()                 // Download as JSON

Output Data Structure

Each collected post includes:

  • Tweet ID, author, handle, avatar
  • Tweet text, timestamp
  • Likes, retweets, replies, views counts
  • Media URLs (if any)
  • Is retweet / is quote tweet

Notes

  • Timeline data is only what's visible/scrolled in your browser session
  • for-you content is personalized; following shows only accounts you follow
  • Increase maxPosts for deeper scrapes (slower, more scroll rounds)
  • Different from twitter-scraping which targets specific profiles, not your feed
