TikTok API

TikTok has no public API. TikPy is a light weight API, without the requirement of any browser sessions, to collect the public data available at www.tiktok.com. Collect trending posts, video metadata, user metadata, hashtags, music, related hashtags, related music and, download videos with the API. Everything is returned in a JSON object.

This has been rewritten to use aiohttp instead of requests to not block. Definition can be found here: #1
