Project description
#Description There are two parts to bitter. First of all, it is a wrapper over Python twitter that adds support for several Twitter API credentials (e.g. authorizing the same app with different user accounts). Secondly, it is a command line tool to automate several actions (e.g. downloading user networks) using the wrapper.
# Instructions
In the command line:
python -m bitter –help
or
bitter –help
Programmatically:
`python from bitter.crawlers import TwitterQueue wq = TwitterQueue.from_credentials() print(wq.users.show(user_name='balkian')) `
# Credentials format
` {"user": "balkian", "consumer_secret": "xxx", "consumer_key": "xxx", "token_key": "xxx", "token_secret": "xxx"} `
By default, bitter uses ‘~/.bitter-credentials.json’, but you may choose a different file:
` python -m bitter -c <credentials_file> ... `
# Server To add more users to the credentials file, you may run the builtin server, with the consumer key and secret of your app:
` python -m bitter server <consumer_key> <consumer_secret> `
# Notice Please, use according to Twitter’s Terms of Service
# TODO
