- tweepy module (
pip install tweepy) - Python 3.6+
- Twitter API credential
This bot skeleton helps to execute some user-defined function at a regular interval.
After you make a Twitter account and secure some API credentials for Tweepy (stick them in api_key.py), you can get going. To add functionality, just provide a custom function to bot.activate. Feel free to add other functions to the bot that help. Reference the Tweepy API here
You can start the bot with ./run_bot.py.
You can set the bot running in the background with
nohup ./run_bot.py &>> output.log &
