#### Resteem
***

Resteem is defined inside a "custom_json" operation. It doesn't have a separated operation type. It's basically counterpart of *"retweet"*, the concept you may be familiar with Twitter.

Condenser interface (Steemit) or other interfaces doesn't show that information that who resteemed your posts. Let's find out who supports our posts by resteeming.

#### Main Flow of the script

- Go through the account history
- Filter main post creations
- Check resteemers and add them to a counter
- Get an output with cool visualization

Since going through the history takes a lot of time, I have only analyzed my account's last 30 days. If you care to wait, you can just remove that check and get all history.


#### Script
***

```
from steem import Steem
from steem.account import Account
from steem.post import Post
from collections import Counter
import steembase
import pygal
def resteemers(steemd, username, output_path):
    processed_posts = set()
    resteemer_list = list()
    resteemed_posts = list()
    acc = Account(username, steemd_instance=steemd)
    for comment in acc.history_reverse(filter_by=["comment"]):
        # don't process updates
        post_identifier = "@%s/%s" % (
            comment.get("author"), comment.get("permlink"))
        if post_identifier in processed_posts:
            continue
        processed_posts.add(post_identifier)
        # don't process resteems of the author
        if comment.get("author") != username:
            continue
        try:
            post = Post(comment, steemd_instance=steemd)
        except steembase.exceptions.PostDoesNotExist:
            continue
        if post.time_elapsed().total_seconds() > 2592000:  # 1 month
            break
        # don't process comments
        if not post.is_main_post():
            continue
        resteemers = steemd.get_reblogged_by(
            post.get("author"), post.get("permlink"))
        resteemers.remove(username)
        if len(resteemers) == 0:
            continue
        for resteemer in resteemers:
            resteemer_list.append(resteemer)
            resteemed_posts.append(post.identifier)
    most_resteemed_posts = Counter(resteemed_posts).most_common(5)
    most_resteemers = Counter(resteemer_list).most_common(5)
    line_chart = pygal.Bar()
    line_chart.title = 'Most Resteemed Posts (%s)' % username
    for item in most_resteemed_posts:
        line_chart.add(item[0], item[1])
    line_chart.render_to_file("%s/most_resteemed.svg" % output_path)
    pie = pygal.Pie()
    pie.title = 'Resteemers of %s' % username
    for item in most_resteemers:
        pie.add(item[0], item[1])
    pie.render_to_file("%s/resteemers.svg" % output_path)
def main():
    s = Steem(nodes=["https://api.steemit.com"])
    resteemers(s, "emrebeyler", "/tmp/")
if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
```
