Time to Log Off

Python script that lets you tweet straight from your code editor or teminal.

Sadly this is no longer useable with the free Twitter API :(

How to use it

1. Create and set up a Twitter Developer account and get your API key and consumer secret. Here are some good instructions.
2. Make sure your Python version is up-to-date and then install tweepy in the command line with pip install tweepy.
3. Clone this repo into any folder you'd like – you can run this either from the terminal or directly through your code editor.
4. Place your API and client keys in a config.py file, making sure to name the variables the same as the ones in the tweet_poster.py file. I highly recommend adding the config.py file to a .gitignore file, as this contains private information about the Twitter account you'll be posting from.
5. In the update_status function write out whatever tweet you want.
6. Run the code straight from your text editor or terminal and check if the tweet posted. Yay :)
