1. Yes that's how you fill it in
2. debug needs to be a boolean, True or False the readme is outdated I think, pass it in after save and make sure you're using the latest version of the package
3. You're supposed to insert the ID of a user there. You can get the ID of a user through scraper.users([user_screen_name]) where user_screen_name is your @.

import base64
user_screen_name = 'JohnDoe'
user_info = scraper.users([user_screen_name])
user_id_b64 = user_info[0][0]["data"]["user"]["result"]["id"]
user_id = int(base64.b64decode(user_id_b64).decode().split(":")[1])

# get likes for user_id
scraper.likes([user_id])

There isn't really any documentation I recommend reading through the code.

debug needs to be a boolean, True or False the readme is outdated I think, pass it in after save

So it seems like scraper = Scraper(email, username, password, save = True, debug = False) gives the error TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'save'

make sure you're using the latest version of the package

So I uninstalled and reinstalled twitter-api-client, but the version in my pip still says 0.4.7, while the one in pypi says it's in 0.7.9.

I tried pip install twitter-api-client==0.7.9, and received the error

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement twitter-api-client==0.7.9 (from versions: 0.0.1, 0.0.2, 0.0.3, 0.0.4, 0.0.5, 0.0.6, 0.0.7, 0.0.8, 0.0.9, 0.1.0, 0.1.1, 0.1.2, 0.1.3, 0.1.4, 0.1.5, 0.1.6, 0.1.7, 0.1.8, 0.1.9, 0.2.0, 0.2.1, 0.2.2, 0.2.3, 0.2.4, 0.2.5, 0.2.6, 0.2.7, 0.2.8, 0.2.9, 0.3.0, 0.3.1, 0.3.2, 0.3.3, 0.3.4, 0.3.5, 0.3.6, 0.3.7, 0.3.8, 0.3.9, 0.4.0, 0.4.1, 0.4.2, 0.4.3, 0.4.4, 0.4.6, 0.4.7)
