• post tweets from terminal like this

python3 twt.py "this tweet have been posted from my terminal"

1. Get API keys from developer.twitter.com.

   • Make a project/app, enable OAuth 1.0a
   • Set to "Read and Write" perms (IMPORTANT)
   • Copy your API Key and API Secret (also called consumer_key and consumer_secret)

2. Create a file named secrets.json in the same directory as the script.

{
  "consumer_key": "your_api_key",
  "consumer_secret": "your_api_secret"
}

3. Paste this in your config file and replace your_api_key and your_api_secret with the actual keys you obtained from Twitter.

4. Run the script for the first time, passing the tweet text as an argument:

python3 twt.py "{text}"

5. The script will output a URL like this, open it and authorize the app.

Please go here and authorize: https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize...

6. Twitter will give you a PIN code. Copy it and paste the PIN code into the script when it asks:

Paste the PIN here:

7. The script will complete the OAuth process and you will be able to post tweets using the script normally.
