Prime Follower is a Twitter bot that checks a list of users' follower accounts to see if it is a prime number of not, if it is the bot notifies them.
Python version: works with Python 3, currently using 3.8 with no problems Modules: json, tweepy, logging,
I started this project because a user on twitter (@DHAhole) tweeted something to the lines of "I wish someone would make a bot that would let me know when my follower count was a prime number, so I could congratulate them for prime membership."
I saw this as a fun project that would both help me understand python a bit more, and give me a chance to interface with the Twitter API a bit.
What you see here is my very noob attempt at making my first actual bot that does something.
I welcome anyone's suggestions on how to make this better, as I'm sure I didn't do a lot of things in the most efficient way. If you've got some suggestions or changes you'd like to see feel free to let me know!
If you want to run this on your own, you need to have Twitter developer API tokens which are NOT included in this release (for security reasons, obv).
To add your own, you need to rename the blank_config.py to just config.py and fill it in with your Twitter developer API tokens/keys.
After that, you need to make sure you have the tweepy module installed (pip install tweepy)
If you need to message me I check GitHub often and will see your message.
