Can you find out which Twitch chats a user is in?

[torchi12]

I want to find out which twitch channel chats certain users are in(so I can find the some streams I'm looking for). you can connect to twitch chat from, say, mIRC but you can't do a WHOIS to find out what channels they're in.

why you trying to stalk people?

[torchi12]

Trying to find streams that I know 1-2 people are in the chats of.

Write an IRC bot that crawls through all chats.

[torchi12]

Literally all chats? : p yea...

[Sychotix]

Yes, literally all chats.

How would you even get a list of all channels?

use the twitch api, its super simple

use the twitch api, its super simple

Guess I can wait until I think the stream is up, cus the api only gets you live streams

Anyone got ideas ;X

You were already given an idea... And quite honestly, it may be the only way.

making IRC bots is really simple. Just google and you can find irc bots with less than 2 pages of code. Heck, i found one in php that has 255 lines of code. Just iterate through all channels and get the user list ...

What are you even............................................................................ ................................................................................ ...............................
You do realise you CAN NOT get offline channels, right? You don't seem to.

The API also can also get a list of channels or streams the user is following. You can use that and iterate through those channels finding the current users and searching on that. Assuming the person you're trying to stalk is following the channels they are watching or hanging out in.

I don't think there's truly a way to get "every" channel. If anything, that may require bruteforce. There doesn't seem to be anything for that on the API.
