R client for accessing Tinder’s API.
I could not find any scientific project for which to use Tinder data, I would love to be informed about the idea that comes to you.
Since the tinder API is not publicly open. Without the github repository https://github.com/fbessez/Tinder , Rtinder would not have been possible.
-
Provides an interface to the tinder API.
-
Allows swiping, getting matches, sending messages, among other functions.
Rtinder is only available as a GitHub package. To install it run the following from an R console:
if (!require("remotes")) {
install.packages("remotes")
}
remotes::install_github("jcrodriguez1989/Rtinder")From an R console type:
library("Rtinder")# When first using Rtinder, we should configure the account.
# It will save (by default) the config file in ~/.tinderAccount.R
# It will save just the access token, not the mail nor the password.
# Wont send info to any server besides Facebook.
# You can see configAccount, it is open source ;)
configAccount("MY_FB_REGISTERED_MAIL", "MY_FB_PASSWORD")
# or by SMS with
configAccountSms(MY_PHONE_NUM) # configAccountSms(543516881918)# Now we can check if it can connect to tinder.
# login() must be executed each time we load Rtinder library.
invisible(login())## [1] "You have been successfully authorized!"
# And finally we can start swiping!
mySwipes <- getSwipes()
# mySwipes is a list
fstSwipe <- mySwipes[[1]]
# fstSwipe is a list
names(fstSwipe)## [1] "type" "user" "instagram" "facebook"
## [5] "spotify" "distance_mi" "content_hash" "s_number"
## [9] "teaser" "teasers"
names(fstSwipe$user)## [1] "_id" "bio" "birth_date" "name" "photos"
## [6] "gender" "jobs" "schools"
