Twitterexplorer

new features

architecture
- easy installation through pypi: `$ pip install twitterexplorer`
- easy running through `$ twitterexplorer collector` / `$ twitterexplorer visualizer`
- run it as a library (see [examples](https://github.com/pournaki/twitter-explorer/tree/master/examples))

interactive networks
- add node repulsion for hashtag networks

new features

visualizer
- Add the possibility to remove hashtags from the semantic network

interactive networks
- Add (X,Y) positions to node info export
- 💥 Visualize temporality of interaction networks (experimental)

bug fixes
- Fix new language codes in Twitter API
- Fix saving language-filtered networks on Windows
- Extend the date range for the Academic API
- Make node color options variable (e.g. show "Louvain" only if it was computed)

misc
- Deprecate cluster-graphs

new features
collector
- Support for API v2 (Standard and Academic Research)
- Save tweets as CSV (to save disk space and improve reading speed in the visualizer)

visualizer
- Generate new types of interaction networks: mention, quote, reply
- Ability to filter tweets by language and/or timestamp before network creation
- Replace InfoMap by Leiden algorithm

interactive networks
- Create a screenshot of the current graph view and save as PNG
- Export node metadata as CSV
- Export the graph as GML (for Gephi)
- Toggle link visibility
- Fetch original tweets vs. interaction tweets separately in "ACCOUNT INFORMATION" tab

misc
- Rename "USER INFORMATION" to "ACCOUNT INFORMATION"
- Change dark mode toggle

Bug fixes
- When there were more original tweets than retweets, the timeline colors would not be accurate. This is fixed now.
- There is an error with Infomap clustergraphs, so we removed this feature for now. Clustergraph for Louvain partition work fine.

UI improvements
- Add warning when a generated retweet network has more than 10,000 links and suggest stronger aggregation.

New features
- Tweet timeline now distinguishes between original tweets and retweets.
- Set a time range for tweets from which the networks will be created.
- Hashtag networks now have text as nodes.
- Remove nodes from hashtag network that appear less than t times.

UI improvements
- Changed global font to Inter to harmonize appearance across platforms.

Dependencies
- Drop dependencies of `plotly` and `cufflinks`.

New feature
- Highlight node and their neighbors on click

UI Improvements
- Update node information on click instead of hover
- Slide up tweets or timeline section when the other is active to save horizontal space
