A Python wrapper around the Twitter API

Author: The Python-Twitter Developers <python-twitter@googlegroups.com> Introduction

This library provides a pure Python interface for the Twitter API.

Twitter (http://twitter.com) provides a service that allows people to connect via the web, IM, and SMS. Twitter exposes a web services API (http://dev.twitter.com/doc) and this library is intended to make it even easier for Python programmers to use. Building

From source:

Install the dependencies:

   http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/simplejson http://code.google.com/p/httplib2/ http://github.com/simplegeo/python-oauth2 

Download the latest python-twitter library from:

   http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/ 

Extract the source distribution and run:

 $ python setup.py build
 $ python setup.py install

Testing

With setuptools installed:

 $ python setup.py test

Without setuptools installed:

 $ python twitter_test.py

Getting the code

View the trunk at:

   http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/source/ 

Check out the latest development version anonymously with:

  $ hg clone http://python-twitter.googlecode.com/hg/ python-twitter
  $ cd python-twitter
  $ hg update

Using

The library provides a Python wrapper around the Twitter API and the Twitter data model.

Model:

The three model classes are twitter.Status, twitter.User, and twitter.DirectMessage. The API methods return instances of these classes.

To read the full API for twitter.Status, twitter.User, or twitter.DirectMessage, run:

 $ pydoc twitter.Status
 $ pydoc twitter.User
 $ pydoc twitter.DirectMessage

API:

The API is exposed via the twitter.Api class.

To create an instance of the twitter.Api class:

 >>> import twitter
 >>> api = twitter.Api()

To create an instance of the twitter.Api with login credentials (many API calls required the client to be authenticated.)

The python-twitter library now only supports oAuth authentication as the Twitter devs have indicated that oAuth is the only method that will be supported moving forward.

   >>> api = twitter.Api(consumer_key='consumer_key',
       consumer_secret='consumer_secret', access_token_key='access_token', access_token_secret='access_token_secret') 

To see if your credentials are successful:

   NOTE - much more than the small sample given here will print 
   >>> print api.VerifyCredentials() {"id": 16133, "location": "Philadelphia", "name": "bear"} 

To fetch the most recently posted public Twitter status messages:

 >>> statuses = api.GetPublicTimeline()
 >>> print [s.user.name for s in statuses]
 [u'DeWitt', u'Kesuke Miyagi', u'ev', u'Buzz Andersen', u'Biz Stone'] 

To fetch a single user's public status messages, where "user" is either a Twitter "short name" or their user id.

 >>> statuses = api.GetUserTimeline(user)
 >>> print [s.text for s in statuses]

To fetch a list a user's friends (requires authentication):

 >>> users = api.GetFriends()
 >>> print [u.name for u in users]

To post a Twitter status message (requires authentication):

 >>> status = api.PostUpdate('I love python-twitter!')
 >>> print status.text
 I love python-twitter!

There are many more API methods, to read the full API documentation:

 $ pydoc twitter.Api
