A simple API wrapper to interact with twitter's internal API. Read the documentation for more information.
The library uses an unofficial API and therefore does not require an API key.
The service is entirely free to use.
Whether you prefer synchronous or asynchronous programming, Twikit supports both, providing flexibility for different use cases.
This library allows you to perform various Twitter-related actions, including:
pip install twikit
Define a client and log in to the account.
from twikit import Client
USERNAME = 'example_user'
EMAIL = 'email@example.com'
PASSWORD = 'password0000'
# Initialize client
client = Client('en-US')
# Login to the service with provided user credentials
client.login(
auth_info_1=USERNAME ,
auth_info_2=EMAIL,
password=PASSWORD
)
Create a tweet with media attached.
# Upload media files and obtain media_ids
media_ids = [
client.upload_media('media1.jpg', index=0),
client.upload_media('media2.jpg', index=1)
]
# Create a tweet with the provided text and attached media
client.create_tweet(
text='Example Tweet',
media_ids=media_ids
)
For more examples, see example.py. See example_async.py for an example of Async.
