Twigger

  • Twigger is helper library written in Go that aims to make common Twitter API calls easier.
  • Twigger is based on Twitter API library anaconda.
  • Twigger also provides easy to use CLI commands for some most common Twitter API calls.
  • Neither Twigger API nor Twigger CLI commands are exhaustive for now.

Example Usage of Twigger API

creds, err := twigger.LoadJSONCredentials("test_resources/login.json")

homeDir, _ := os.UserHomeDir()
homeDir = homeDir + "/"

logFile, _ := os.OpenFile(homeDir + "out.log", os.O_APPEND|os.O_CREATE|os.O_WRONLY, 0644)
defer logFile.Close()

conn,  err := twigger.NewConnection(creds, logFile, os.Stdout, os.Stderr)
if err != nil{
    log.Fatalln("Cannot create a new connection!")
}

tweets, _ := conn.GetAllRecentTweetsFromScreenName("BBCWorld")
tweets.Save(homeDir + "bbc_tweets.json")

favs, _   := conn.GetAllRecentFavoritesFromScreenName("philosophybites")
favs.Save(homeDir + "philosophybites_favs.json")

friends, _ := conn.GetAllFriendsFromScreenName("twitterVideo")
friends.Save(homeDir + "twitter_video_friends.json")
followers, _ := conn.GetAllFollowersFromScreenName("randomartdaily")
followers.Save(homeDir + "randomartdaily_followers.json")

followers, _ = conn.GetNFollowersFromScreenName(2000, "BBCEarth")
followers.Save(homeDir + "bbcearth_2000_followers.json")

popTweets, _ := conn.GetPopularTweetsByQuery("Apple M1")
popTweets.Save(homeDir + "apple_m1_pop_tweets.json")

picturePaths := []string{
    "test_resources/antalya.jpg",
    "test_resources/eskisehir.jpg",
    "test_resources/stars.jpg",
    "test_resources/ny.jpg",
    "test_resources/providence.jpg",
