Event
const TikTokScraper = require ( 'tiktok-scraper' ) ; const users = TikTokScraper . userEvent ( "tiktok" , { number: 30 } ) ; users . on ( 'data' , json => { //data in JSON format } ) ; users . on ( 'done' , ( ) => { //completed } ) ; users . on ( 'error' , error => { //error message } ) ; users . scrape ( ) ; const hashtag = TikTokScraper . hashtagEvent ( "summer" , { number: 250 , proxy: 'socks5://1.1.1.1:90' } ) ; hashtag . on ( 'data' , json => { //data in JSON format } ) ; hashtag . on ( 'done' , ( ) => { //completed } ) ; hashtag . on ( 'error' , error => { //error message } ) ; hashtag . scrape ( ) ;
Get Set Session
NOT REQUIRED
Very common problem is when tiktok is blacklisting your IP/PROXY and in such case you can try to set session and there will be higher chances for success
Get the session:
- Open https://www.tiktok.com/ in any browser
- Login in to your account
- Right click -> inspector -> networking
- Refresh page -> select any request that was made to the tiktok -> go to the Request Header sections -> Cookies
- Find in cookies sid_tt value. It usually looks like that: sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312;
- sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312; - this will be your authenticated session cookie value that should be used to scrape user/hashtag/music/trending feed
Set the session:
-
CLI:
- Set single session by using option --session. For example --session sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312;
- Set path to the file with the list of sessions by using option --session-file. For example --session-file /var/bob/sessionList.txt
- Example content /var/bob/sessionList.txt:
sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312; sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312; sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312; sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312;
-
In the MODULE you can set session by setting the option value sessionList . For example sessionList:["sid_tt=521kkadkasdaskdj4j213j12j312;", "sid_tt=12312312312312;"]
Download Video
This part is related to the MODULE usage (NOT THE CLI)
The {videoUrl} value is binded to the cookie value {tt_webid_v2} that can contain any value
Method 1: default headers
When you extract videos from the user, hashtag, music, trending feed or single video then in response besides the video metadata you will receive headers object that will contain params that were used to extract the data. Here is the important part, in order to access/download video through {videoUrl} value you need to use same {headers} values.
headers: { "user-agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/86.0.4240.80 Safari/537.36" , "referer": "https://www.tiktok.com/" , "cookie": "tt_webid_v2=689854141086886123" },
Method 2: custom headers
You can pass your own headers with the {options}.
const headers = { "user-agent": "BOB" , "referer": "https://www.tiktok.com/" , "cookie": "tt_webid_v2=BOB" } getVideoMeta ( 'WEB_VIDEO_URL' , {headers} ) user ( 'WEB_VIDEO_URL' , {headers} ) hashtag ( 'WEB_VIDEO_URL' , {headers} ) trend ( 'WEB_VIDEO_URL' , {headers} ) music ( 'WEB_VIDEO_URL' , {headers} ) // And after you can access video through {videoUrl} value by using same custom headers
Json Output Example
Video Feed
Example output for the methods: user, hashtag, trend, music, userEvent, hashtagEvent, musicEvent, trendEvent
