Twint: REQUEST: search tweets with several keywords

[PatricioAlvarado]

import twint
c = twint.Config()
c.Search = "vanilla" or "chocolate"
c.Format = "{tweet}"
twint.run.Search(c)

Hello I have been using twint to webscrape tweets and I think is a great module. However, there is one feature I think is missing or might be missing from the wiki commands. I would like to search for tweets containing one or more of several keywords. Right now if you include several keywords Twint only outputs tweets containing all of the keywords. I would like to run a code like the one above and have twint output all the tweets containing the word vanilla, chocolate or both of them instead of only tweets containg both of them.

I use the latest version of twint on a jupyter notebook on module mode. I have read the wikia several times and I don't see anyway to run a code with this type of search.

It should be possible to retrieve these tweets like this :

c.search = "vanilla OR chocolate"

Full text search is different from keyword search.

Example of full text search:
c.Search = "full text search" could return a tweet with "this is a text, not full, but useful for a search"

Example of keyword search:
c.Search = "\"keyword search\"" could return a tweet with "this tweet is useful for a keyword search" and not return a tweet with "this tweet is useful for a search, but it does not have keyword that we want"

Anyway, as @hpiedcoq correctly said, this is what you should do:

And this is an example of what you can get:

Hi @pielco11,
Could you answer me a question?
I want to get tweets that contain any of the following keywords: "Burger King", "Domino´s Pizza" or "Pizza Hut".

Then I need: c.Search = "\"Burger King\"" or c.Search = "\"Domino´s Pizza\"" or c.Search = "\"Pizza Hut\"".
How these three searches are joined by or? Because
c.Search = "\"Burger King OR Domino´s Pizza OR Pizza Hut\"" is not correct.

Thank you!
