Twitter_bot Guidance for Beginners

Twitter_BOT

:-I'm hoping that you have some basic-sense nothing else!

Twitter BOT from Scratch to Deployment :)

first, you will need a Twitter developer account! so go to Twitter Developr

after making a developer account (if you are facing issues than I cant do anything:()

NOTE:-Consumer keys are the API KEYS too

copy paste all the given keys into your notepad!

--Coding Part--
now you have to install "Tweepy" python lib that will help you to make contact with your Twitter developer account!

1 .make a folder named BOT

2.type following command in terminal

git init

pip install Tweepy

3.make a python file named= bot.py

after this authentication comes into the role just copy-paste keys from your notepad into the python file

import Tweepy

CONSUMER_KEY = "--"

CONSUMER_SECRET = "--"

ACCESS_KEY = "--"

ACCESS_SECRET = "--"

auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET)
auth.set_access_token(ACCESS_KEY, ACCESS_SECRET)

api = tweepy.API(auth)

after this you will write functions that will like and retweet

QUERY='#programming' or '#technology' or '#coding' // you can edit this 
LIKE= True
FOLLOW= True

for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, q = QUERY).items(): 
        try: 
            print('\nTweet by: @' + tweet.user.screen_name) 
            tweet.retweet() 
            print('Retweeted the tweet') 

            if LIKE: 
                tweet.favorite() 
                print('Favorited the tweet') 

            if FOLLOW: 
                if not tweet.user.following: 
                    tweet.user.follow() 
                    print('Followed the user') 

            sleep(300)
        except tweepy.TweepError as e: 
                print(e.reason)

        except StopIteration: 
              break

your final python file will look like {if it is not same as yours so make it same}:-

import tweepy
from time import sleep


CONSUMER_KEY = "--"
CONSUMER_SECRET = "--"
ACCESS_KEY = "--"
ACCESS_SECRET = "--"
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET)
auth.set_access_token(ACCESS_KEY, ACCESS_SECRET)

api = tweepy.API(auth)

QUERY='#programming' or '#technology' or '#coding'
LIKE= True
FOLLOW= True

for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, q = QUERY).items(): 
        try: 
            print('\nTweet by: @' + tweet.user.screen_name) 
            tweet.retweet() 
            print('Retweeted the tweet') 

            if LIKE: 
                tweet.favorite() 
                print('Favorited the tweet') 

            if FOLLOW: 
                if not tweet.user.following: 
                    tweet.user.follow() 
                    print('Followed the user') 

            sleep(300)
        except tweepy.TweepError as e: 
                print(e.reason)

        except StopIteration: 
              break

if you try to run this file in terminal via python filename.py

you will see your output if not then its your mistake please copy paste carefully!

in terminal :-git add .

           git commit -m 'bot file created'
