Try hitting the Twitter API quickly and easily with Python
Introduction
Since I have more opportunities to use Python personally, this time I will try to tweet and get the timeline with just a simple library. Please refer to other sites until you register the application and obtain the authentication key. I don't think you'll stumble too much. (Please note that you need to link your phone number to your Twitter account.)
As a preliminary preparation, it is a good idea to copy and paste various authentication keys and save them as config.py.
config.py
CONSUMER_KEY = "**************"
CONSUMER_SECRET = "**************"
ACCESS_TOKEN = "**************"
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = "**************"
Now let's write some simple scripts and play with Twitter.
# -*- coding:utf-8 -*-
import json, config
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1Session
CK = config.CONSUMER_KEY
CS = config.CONSUMER_SECRET
AT = config.ACCESS_TOKEN
ATS = config.ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET
twitter = OAuth1Session(CK, CS, AT, ATS)
I used request-oauthlib for the Oauth authentication library.
Try to get your own timeline
timeline.py
url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json"
params ={'count' : 5}
req = twitter.get(url, params = params)
if req.status_code == 200:
timeline = json.loads(req.text)
for tweet in timeline:
print(tweet['user']['name']+'::'+tweet['text'])
print(tweet['created_at'])
print('----------------------------------------------------')
else:
print("ERROR: %d" % req.status_code)

Try searching by keyword
search.py
url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json"
print("What to look for?")
keyword = input('>> ')
print('----------------------------------------------------')
params = {'q' : keyword, 'count' : 5}
req = twitter.get(url, params = params)
if req.status_code == 200:
search_timeline = json.loads(req.text)
for tweet in search_timeline['statuses']:
print(tweet['user']['name'] + '::' + tweet['text'])
print(tweet['created_at'])
print('----------------------------------------------------')
else:
print("ERROR: %d" % req.status_code)

Try to tweet something
tweet.py
url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json"
print("What do you tweet?")
tweet = input('>> ')
print('----------------------------------------------------')
params = {"status" : tweet}
req = twitter.post(url, params = params)
if req.status_code == 200:
print("Succeed!")
else:
print("ERROR : %d"% req.status_code)
What do you tweet?

Post with an image
tweet_media.py
url_media = "https://upload.twitter.com/1.1/media/upload.json"
url_text = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json"
print("Enter the name of the attached image(jpg format only)")
media_name = input('>> ')
print('-----------------------------------')
files = {"media" : open(media_name+".jpg ", 'rb')}
req_media = twitter.post(url_media, files = files)
if req_media.status_code != 200:
print("MEDIA UPLOAD FAILED... %s", req_media.text)
exit()
media_id = json.loads(req_media.text)['media_id']
print("MEDIA ID: %d" % media_id)
print("What do you tweet?")
tweet = input('>> ')
print('-----------------------------------')
params = {"status" : tweet, "media_ids" : [media_id]}
req_media = twitter.post(url_text, params = params)
if req_media.status_code != 200:
print("TEXT UPLOAD FAILED... %s", req_text.text)
exit()
print("SUCCEED!")

in conclusion
It's easy, but I was impressed that the Twitter API was easier to use than I expected. Actually, I was thinking of implementing it using Tweepy, which I had heard before, but it seems that it has not been maintained for a long time, so I stopped it. Next time, I would like to talk about Twitter BOT made using this knowledge.
