I'm intrigued by BaseX documention on Twitter utilizing a JSON module for converting to XML -- but how was the data acquired?

To populate a database with tweets, for similar results, what's most expedient method? (For expediant, read quick-and-dirty without tokens.)

I'm not sure this answer your question, but the documentation you link to says, among other things: " Twitter provides the developer community with a set of APIs for retrieving the data about its users and their communication, including the Streaming API for data-intensive applications, the Search API for querying and filtering the messaging content, and the REST API for accessing the core primitives of the Twitter platform." Could that be it? – Jack Fleeting Oct 12 '19 at 14:52

As far as I know, twitter data is not available via any API without using authentication tokens. – Michael Kay Oct 12 '19 at 20:55
