Problem in geo parsing in v2 API about search-tweets-python

[igorbrigadir]

Thanks! I think this is missing in the code - when a tweet has exact geo but no place. There's no quick workaround you can do unfortunately - not without changing some code here: https://github.com/twitterdev/search-tweets-python/blob/v2/searchtweets/result_stream.py#L269-L271

This should fix it:

            if "geo" in payload and "place_id" in payload["geo"]:
                place_id = payload["geo"]['place_id']
                payload["geo"] = merge_dicts(payload["geo"], includes_places[place_id])

I want wait for official release (I'm build docker containers -- it will be little bit harder to prepare container with updated lib), when it will be released?

[igorbrigadir]

No idea, but if you don't want to wait you can install the patch directly with pip, from the branch like this:

pip install git+https://github.com/twitterdev/search-tweets-python.git@refs/pull/144/merge

Or

pip install https://github.com/igorbrigadir/search-tweets-python/archive/patch-2.zip

Or put

https://github.com/igorbrigadir/search-tweets-python/archive/patch-2.zip

Directly into a requirements.txt instead of searchtweets-v2 and your docker should build it all the same!
