Are you able to add a new line above line 11 to do print(data).

What’s the response once you do that?

[davidteather]

Actually, sorry I made that mistake. I thought this was an issue on my TikTokBot repo.

What value do you have results set to? Also is your directory to browsermob proxy correct?

[Steenos]

I changed the results value to 2 and now it seems to work. Is there a way to return the more results? And how would I go about returning a video url to download?

[Steenos]

Just figured out how to return the url by looking at the json file! But it would be nice to be able to return more values. results=2 is the most it seems to allow.

[davidteather]

Yeah that's weird. In the unit tests for the api allows for over 100 to be fetched at a single time.

Can you try to run

from TikTokApi import TikTokapi
import requests

api = TikTokapi("path/to/browsermob-proxy")

trending = api.trending(10)

verbose = 0
count = 10
import requests

while True:
    url = "https://m.tiktok.com/share/item/list?id=&type=5&count=" + \
        str(count) + "&minCursor=0&maxCursor=0&_signature=" + \
        api.signature
    r = requests.get(url, headers={"authority": "m.tiktok.com", "method": "GET", "path": url.split("https://m.tiktok.com")[0], "scheme": "https", "accept": "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8,application/signed-exchange;v=b3",

    data = r.json()
    response = []

    if data["statusCode"] != 0:

[Steenos]

hmm, running that gives the same error.

[davidteather]

Does it print out anything beforehand?

[Steenos]

in server.log it looks like its failing to start jetty server

[davidteather]

Does it open the browser before giving you the error?

[Steenos]

Yes, this is the error: (main) Failed to start Jetty server. Aborting. java.net.BindException: Address already in use: bind

[davidteather]

Can you try to close any running java programs or other programs that may be binding to a port?

[husligc]

any plans to make a follow and unfollow function?

[davidteather]

any plans to make a follow and unfollow function?

Not currently because to login captcha bypass is required. If I were to create account login features the user would have to solve the captcha manually until a better option is found.

[husligc]

Would you be interested in helping me make just a simple follow/unfollow script for myself? Thanks
