Insert code below

    'EMAIL' : 'twitter-email',
    'PASSWORD' : 'twitter-password',
    'PHONE_NUMBER' : 'twitter-phone-number'
}

4. Run the script

• In the project directory terminal, run command

  $ sudo python3 main.py

• To enable script running in the background even after closed terminal, in the project directory terminal, run command

  $ nohup python3 -u main.py &

  • To kill the process, run command

    $ ps ax | grep main.py

    Then, get the process id, example 2031 and run command

    $ kill -9 2031

  • To see the log file, run command

    $ tail -f nohup.out

5. Edit time interval

• Take a look at Python's schedule documentation and you can change it however you want (the code is at the end of the main.py file).

• By default, it was set to 7 AM every day.
