VK Friend scraper

[LuiChang212]

Hi,

I am looking for a good VK friendlist scraper. Does someone have one, or build one? PM me.

You can use VK API with Python:

# возвращает массив объектов друзей
    def friends(self, api):
        user_friends = api.friends.get(user_id=self.id, order='hints') # возвращает в том порядке, как расположены в разделе Мои
        return user_friends

    # возвращает количество друзей
    def friends_count(self, api):
        user_friends = User.friends(self, api)
        friends_count = len(user_friends)
        return friends_count

        friends_count = len(user_friends)
        return friends_count

Does this require an account?

Does this require an account?

Yes you have to open VK API
