问题
I'm working on a program to analyse data using Twitter's REST API, I looking to use a query with multiple keywords to get the results I'm looking for. However, I'm having issues when using a search query to get specific results. I have followed the documentation to use 'OR' search for multiple words but it's only working to a certain extent.
In this code when I use the query:
q = ('plane fly OR car drive -filter:retweets AND filter:replies')
It returns tweets that either include the words 'plane' & 'fly' OR 'car' & 'drive'. But if I added another keyword filter on at random, for example:
q = ('plane fly OR car drive OR cadburys chocolate -filter:retweets AND filter:replies')
This does not return any tweets at all. I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding the way the query works with the use of OR, but I'd imagine even if there were no tweets containing 'cadburys chocolate', it would still return the other tweets for the other keywords?
Does anyone know where I am going wrong? If the query can be structured this way? Or if not, is there a way I can search for multiple keywords/phrases in one query?
Thanks for you time, any help is appreciated.
回答1:
The syntax seems to be fine. Could you try use AND instead of space when using multiple comparison (more than two). q = ('plane AND fly OR car AND drive OR cadburys AND chocolate -filter:retweets AND filter:replies')
You may need to use the AND operator when stringing multiple operators together.

https://unionmetrics.com/resources/how-to-use-advanced-twitter-search-queries/ According to this link: You can also chain together multiple keywords to create a more complex query. The OR operator will attach to the word that immediately precedes it, very much like order of operations in algebra. For example, the following query will find tweets that mention social media metrics or social media analytics, because the OR links to the metrics and analytics terms
q="social media metrics OR analytics" would return results containing the words social media metrics or social media analytics
You're not wrong, but it was just never clear on how to search for terms longer than 1 word.
