How to look up functions of a library in python?

QUESTION

How to look up functions of a library in python?

Asked 2018-Nov-09 at 19:51

I just installed this library that scrapes twitter data: https://github.com/kennethreitz/twitter-scraper

I wanted to find out the library's functions and methods so I can start interacting with the library. I have looked around StackOverflow on this topic and tried the following:

pydoc twitter_scraper
help(twitter_scraper)
dir(twitter_scraper)
imported inspect and ran functions = inspect.getmembers(module, inspect.isfunction)

Of the four things I have tried, I have only gotten an output from the inspect option so far. I am also unsure (excluding inspect) whether these codes should go in the terminal or a scratch file.

Still quite new at this. Thank you so much for reading everybody!
