Write and run a flow

Tweets an update with just text.

from prefect import flow
from prefect_twitter import TwitterCredentials
from prefect_twitter.tweets import update_status

@flow
def example_update_status_flow():
    twitter_credentials = TwitterCredentials(
        consumer_key="consumer_key",
        consumer_secret="consumer_secret",
        access_token="access_token",
        access_token_secret="access_token_secret"
    )
    status_id = update_status(twitter_credentials, status="A Prefect Tweet!")
