Make class

I suggest we put the code in a class, in case we want to add other functionality later we can have "add-ons" separated from the core programme. plus it's a little more organised that way.

Parsing the Follower List's Json

It seems when the follower list is queried, it just dumped the whole JSON data without parsing.
This doesn't seem nice.

Broken setup.py - [Fix Needed]

The following PR(s) broke the setup.py:
[x] #50 - Modularizing the code.
So there should be changes needed to fix this. Now the program contains 4 files instead of 1 file.And the old file twweet_cli.py should be removed as there is no need of it now.

Storing the API Details of the user

A way to do this is by using a text file as mentioned here. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24725345/how-to-make-python-remeber-permanently-a-variable-or-a-list-no-pickle. Or any other method.

setup.py

Create a setup file for the application.

Unable to run twweet-cli

I followed the instruction in the README file : Cloned the repo, made a python3 virtual environment, installed tweepy (Also needed to install pyyaml). Then when I ran twweet-cli , as expected, I was asked the Consumer Key and the Access Token credentials, which I duly entered after creating a Twitter App.
After this, when I run twweet-cli or twweet-cli --help or twweet-cli -h or twweet-cli help I get the following error:

Fetching all the tweets for particular hash tags

After command, return to main menu

It would be nice to stay in the program until you tell it you want to quit. Basically after doing a thing ("show my tweets" etc), it should drop you back to the main menu to make another selection. Also if we're doing that, a "quit" option should be added too!

I'm happy to do this one if you guys don't already have it in the works!

Save tweets of users and tweets of particular hashtag in separate folder.

After getting tweets of user or getting tweets of particular hashtag, a csv file is created for each. These files are directly saved in the root of the project directory. There must be a separate directory for these files and they must be ignored by github.

Python3.6 refactor?

I mentioned this in #14 but this is probably a big enough proposition to warrant it's own thread. I'm a little confused as to why this project is being written in legacy code. I've refactored and tested twweet-cli.py and it seems to work just fine (I didn't test every function but it is still able to tweet and read tweets). Please let me know what you think and if you'd like to go through with a refactor.

Get list of trending topics

Get list of trending topics from twitter.

If the keys are not set, all other operations fail

On first run, if there is no consumer key or OAuth token, the app should prompt to create them. Until this happens, all get and twweet operations will fail with Twitter API errors.

twweet-cli command doesn't work anymore.

twweet-cli command which was meant to run the application directly from anywhere instead of doing python3 twweet-cli.py does not work anymore. I have added the screenshot below of the error it is showing after running the command for the reference. @nithinswarrier can you please check it and confirm.

Add nice formatting for timeline/searched tweets?

Hey all, I was wondering if someone might take on having some kind of formatting settings or adjustments to make viewing your timeline or your own tweets easier to read. Currently everything is just output as a large list of tweets with attributes showing. Perhaps we could have some sort of filter function to pair this down and get it into a more readable state? It would be nice if it took parameters so that the user could have some settings regarding how things are displayed.

Add stream listener

Hi guys I took a look at your project and it's pretty interesting, I would like to help as well.
I was thinking why dont we add a stream listener so the user can get a constant stream of the latest tweets like on the twitter website or app without worrying about rate limits or downloading the same data over and over again.

I have started adding the stream listener to the project in my forked version, please take a look at it.

Windows instructions

I know this is knit-picky, but the Windows instructions for running the setup.py script in the ReadMe are:

For Windows users: $ sudo python setup.py install
sudo should be left out since it's not a Windows command.

Also, it's been a while since I've used python on Window, so correct me if I'm wrong, but when running pip, I believe they would need to type python -m pip install tweepy
I can verify this one later tonight.

What are the plans for the future?

I messed around with the api some time ago, maybe i can help..

Idea: Refactor function names to have lower case instead of camel case

I'm unsure if this change would be welcome which is why I'm suggesting it as an idea. Please feel free to close if not something that will work for the project. I'd like to go in and change the function names to be lowercase and separate words in the names by underscores.

Fastest way to rebuild the project without installing it again.

If TwtApi.db is empty, everything fails

After running setup, I started a twweet-cli session. Instead of completing it, I pressed Ctrl-C before running any real operations.

After that, it was impossible to relaunch the app:

python -m twweet_cli                                                                       git:(master|✚1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/Cellar/python/2.7.13/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/runpy.py", line 174, in _run_module_as_main
    "__main__", fname, loader, pkg_name)
  File "/opt/Cellar/python/2.7.13/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/runpy.py", line 72, in _run_code

  File "/Users/apiper/Development/github/twweet-cli/twweet_cli.py", line 185, in <module>
    main()
  File "/Users/apiper/Development/github/twweet-cli/twweet_cli.py", line 143, in main
    cfgdb = list(c.fetchone())
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

Re-running the setup had no effect.

I had to open TwtApi.db with a SQLlite editor, and add a line of dummy values to the database. Once it was "fixed", I could run the CLI again.

I'm guessing that force closing the Python program causes the SQLlite DB to be closed non-cleanly and future runs fail. Setup could either pre-populate the file with dummy values, or this error condition should be handled more cleanly.

Code for python 3.6

A new branch is needed for maintaining code for python 3.6. Refer to #16 for more info.

Test Cases

We should probably write some unit test cases as well.

Difference in key names between ConfigReader and setup

There is a difference between the key names used in the config.yml file created via setup.py (key names are Tweets and HashTag here) and in the ConfigReader (key names are tweets and hashtag here). This results in:

  File "/Users/gganesan/mac/code/pub-github/weijuly/twweet-cli/twweet_cli/config/ConfigReader.py", line 18, in __init__
    ConfigurationReader.__tweets = cfg['tweets']
KeyError: 'tweets'

Let me know if I can issue a PR to resolve this.

PS: I'm very new to open source contribution - it'd be great to get some guidance and mentorship 😄

Check tweet length

Check the length of the tweet before sending it to twitter. Display an error message if tweets exceeds its length limit.
