TikTok Scraper

Installation

TikTok Scraper requires some external libraries to be installed, prior to using it. Installation is simple, using Composer:

composer install

After installing required composer packages, you should run migrations, so that the required database structure is created. ou should create MySQL database on your desired server, and place the login credentials and database name into .env file, so Laravel can pick it up. After setting the database up, run

php artisan migrate

So that database is populated with necessary tables.

Running TikTok Scraper

TikTok Scraper is built to be run through artisan commands:

  • php artisan tiktok:getusers <user> [<user> [...]] - Supplied with the list of users, fetches data regarding that TikTok user.
  • php artisan tiktok:getvideos -f=<file> - Fetches video data from the supplied file. For the correct format of the file, see storage/videos.json sample file.

Operation

As per requirements, the first run of getusers command, data is inserted into the database. On subsequent runs, existing data is updated, while new data is inserted.

When running getvideos, as with previous command, data is inserted on the first run, and updated on subsequent calls.

NOTE: If you run getvideos before running getusers, or the user doesn't exist in the database, video data insertion will fail due to foreign key constraints. This is by design, and should not be considered a bug.
