A twitter bot that tweets a game of thrones quote every 24 hours. The quotes are stored in the data.json file as a JSON object.
N.B: You will need to have a twitter developers account. So make sure you already have one or go to Twitter Developers to create a developer account. After doing that, you can proceed to doing the steps listed below:
- Clone project repository
- Navigate into project repository i.e
cd tweet-quote-bot - Set up a virtual environment for the project:
$ python3 -m venvor$ py -3 -m venv - Create a
credentials.pyfile - Add the following information to it:
ACCESS_TOKEN=YOUR-ACCESS-TOKEN
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET=YOUR-ACCESS-TOKEN-SECRET
API_KEY=YOUR-API-KEY
API_SECRET_KEY=YOUR-API-SECRET-KEY
- Install the requirements:
$ pip install -r requirements.txt - In
bot.py, import yourcredentials.pyfile i.eimport credentials, then change lines 9-12, thus:
consumer_key = credentials.API_KEY
consumer_secret_key = credentials.API_SECRET_KEY
access_token = credentials.ACCESS_TOKEN
access_token_secret = credentials.ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET
- Save changes and run
bot.py. - To stop script at any point in time press
ctrl + c.
