Getting full tweet text from "user_timeline" with tweepy : <p>I am using tweepy to fetch tweets from a user's timeline using the script included <a href="https://gist.github.com/yanofsky/5436496" rel="noreferrer">here</a>. However, the tweets are coming in truncated:</p>

<pre><code>auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
auth.set_access_token(access_key, access_secret)
api = tweepy.API(auth)
new_tweets = api.user_timeline(screen_name = screen_name,count=200, full_text=True)
</code></pre>

<p>Returns:</p>

<pre><code>Status(contributors=None, 
     truncated=True, 
     text=u"#Hungary's new bill allows the detention of asylum seekers 
          &amp;amp; push backs to #Serbia. We've seen push backs before so\u2026 https:// 
          t.co/iDswEs3qYR", 
          is_quote_status=False, 
          ...
</code></pre>

<p>That is, for some <code>i</code>, <code>new_tweets[i].text.encode("utf-8")</code> appears like</p>

<pre><code>#Hungary's new bill allows the detention of asylum seekers &amp;amp; 
push backs to #Serbia. We've seen push backs before so…https://t.co/
iDswEs3qYR
</code></pre>

<p>Where the <code>...</code> in the latter replaces text that would normally be displayed on Twitter.</p>

<p>Does anyone know how I can override <code>truncated=True</code> to get the full text on my request?</p>
