Introduction

A Twitter Bot that posts the current status of the HackerSpace

Installation

In order to simply run the program, you can simply install dependencies by running

    git clone https://github.com/bytespeicher/twitterstatus.git .
    cp config.py.example config.py
    pip install -r requirements.txt

Building From Source

Before you start, make sure you have Python and virtualenv installed and in your PATH.

Then execute the following commands on the command line:

    ENV_NAME=twitterstatus
    virtualenv $ENV_NAME
    cd $ENV_NAME
    source ./bin/activate
    pip install twitter
    git clone https://github.com/bytespeicher/twitterstatus.git .
    cp config.py.example config.py

After the virtual environment is set up, the Twitter library is installed and the twitterstatus repository is cloned.

You will need to generate Twitter OAuth keys and put them into config.py. Also you might want to check if CURRENT_STATUS is set to the path where your spaceapi status.json resides. When everything is set up just run twitterstatus.py by the following command

python3 twitterstatus.py
