Adds the X (Twitter) Web Scraper (client.scrape.x) — previously missing from the SDK.

  • 5 variants: posts, posts_by_profile, posts_by_profiles_array, profiles, profiles_by_username (collect-by-URL and discover), each with async/sync + trigger/status/fetch.
  • Adds limit_per_input to cap records per input (additive — other scrapers unchanged).
  • Sync parity, tests, and a notebook walkthrough.
  • Version → 2.4.1.

- New XScraper (@register("x")) backing the X Web Scraper API over two datasets (posts gd_lwxkxvnf1cynvib9co, profiles gd_lwxmeb2u1cniijd7t4).
- Five variants, each with async + _sync + trigger/status/fetch: posts(url); posts_by_profile(url, start_date, end_date); posts_by_profiles_array(urls, ...); profiles(url, max_number_of_posts); profiles_by_username(user_name). Discover variants send type=discover_new & discover_by=profile_url|profiles_array|user_name.
- Add optional limit_per_input to the shared trigger layer (api_client + workflow): when set, sends {"input": [...], "limit_per_input": N}; bare array otherwise.
- Wire ScrapeService.x + SyncXScraper (sync parity); export XScraper.
- Tests + notebooks/web_scrapers/x.ipynb walkthrough.
- Bump version to 2.4.1; minor web_unlocker / scraper_studio notebook tweaks.

Adds the X (Twitter) Web Scraper (client.scrape.x) — previously missing from the SDK.

  • 5 variants: posts, posts_by_profile, posts_by_profiles_array, profiles, profiles_by_username (collect-by-URL and discover), each with async/sync + trigger/status/fetch.
  • Adds limit_per_input to cap records per input (additive — other scrapers unchanged).
  • Sync parity, tests, and a notebook walkthrough.
  • Version → 2.4.1.

…+ discover
- New XScraper (@register("x")) backing the X Web Scraper API over two datasets (posts gd_lwxkxvnf1cynvib9co, profiles gd_lwxmeb2u1cniijd7t4).
- Five variants, each with async + _sync + trigger/status/fetch: posts(url); posts_by_profile(url, start_date, end_date); posts_by_profiles_array(urls, ...); profiles(url, max_number_of_posts); profiles_by_username(user_name). Discover variants send type=discover_new & discover_by=profile_url|profiles_array|user_name.
- Add optional limit_per_input to the shared trigger layer (api_client + workflow): when set, sends {"input": [...], "limit_per_input": N}; bare array otherwise.
- Wire ScrapeService.x + SyncXScraper (sync parity); export XScraper.
- Tests + notebooks/web_scrapers/x.ipynb walkthrough.
- Bump version to 2.4.1; minor web_unlocker / scraper_studio notebook tweaks.
