Each Python file is used to interact with Twitter in some way and will be different from the others in such a way that they don't interact with each other. This is so that it is easy to see what each program is doing by itself.

How to Use

To have these programs run as intended, they would ideally be run from a cloud computer such as AWS EC2/Google Cloud Console or a Raspberry Pi. This is so that the programs aren't ended early or have to restart.

Twitter_Bot

This is a basic Twitter bot that tweets daily at a specified time and keeps a daily counter that increments every time the tweet is sent.

This utilizes Tweepy, schedule, time, and datetime to handle everything.
The credentials used to allow Tweepy to interact with Twitter need to be accessed from your developer.twitter.com account.

You can find them by logging into the site then going to:
Team dropdown> Apps> Details> Keys and Tokens

Tweepy documentation can be found here.
Schedule documentation can be found here.

RandomQuotes

This is another basic Twitter bot, but this one involves pulling random lines from a text file and using those as tweets. API credentials are also grabbed from a text file.

The credentials file, creds.txt, only needs the API credentials to be entered in place of the placeholder variables to work with the python file.
