        ============
        Introduction
        ============
        
        This library provides a pure Python interface for the `Twitter API <https://dev.twitter.com/>`_. It works with Python versions from 2.7+ and Python 3.
        
        `Twitter <http://twitter.com>`_ provides a service that allows people to connect via the web, IM, and SMS. Twitter exposes a `web services API <https://dev.twitter.com/overview/documentation>`_ and this library is intended to make it even easier for Python programmers to use.
        
        ==========
        Installing
        ==========
        
        You can install python-twitter using::
        
            $ pip install python-twitter
        
        
        If you are using python-twitter on Google App Engine, see `more information <GAE.rst>`_ about including 3rd party vendor library dependencies in your App Engine project.
        
        
        ================
        Getting the code
        ================
        
        The code is hosted at https://github.com/bear/python-twitter
        
        Check out the latest development version anonymously with::
        
            $ git clone git://github.com/bear/python-twitter.git
            $ cd python-twitter
        
        To install dependencies, run either::
        
        	$ make dev
        
        or::
        
            $ pip install -Ur requirements.testing.txt
            $ pip install -Ur requirements.txt
        
        Note that ```make dev``` will install into your local ```pyenv``` all of the versions needed for test runs using ```tox```.
        
        To install the minimal dependencies for production use (i.e., what is installed
        with ``pip install python-twitter``) run::
        
            $ make env
        
        or::
        
            $ pip install -Ur requirements.txt
        
        =============
        Running Tests
        =============
        The test suite can be run against a single Python version or against a range of them depending on which Makefile target you select.
        
        Note that tests require ```pip install pytest``` and optionally ```pip install pytest-cov``` (these are included if you have installed dependencies from ```requirements.testing.txt```)
        
        To run the unit tests with a single Python version::
        
            $ make test
        
        to also run code coverage::
        
            $ make coverage
        
        To run the unit tests against a set of Python versions::
        
            $ make tox
        
        =============

        =====
        Using
        =====
        
        The library provides a Python wrapper around the Twitter API and the Twitter data model. To get started, check out the examples in the examples/ folder or read the documentation at https://python-twitter.readthedocs.io which contains information about getting your authentication keys from Twitter and using the library.
        
        ----
        Using with Django
        ----
        
        Additional template tags that expand tweet urls and urlize tweet text. See the django template tags available for use with python-twitter: https://github.com/radzhome/python-twitter-django-tags
        
        ------
        Models
        ------
        
        The library utilizes models to represent various data structures returned by Twitter. Those models are:
            * twitter.Category
            * twitter.DirectMessage
            * twitter.Hashtag
            * twitter.List
            * twitter.Media
            * twitter.Status
            * twitter.Trend
            * twitter.Url
            * twitter.User
            * twitter.UserStatus
        
        To read the documentation for any of these models, run::
        
            $ pydoc twitter.[model]
        
        ---
        API
        ---
        
        The API is exposed via the ``twitter.Api`` class.
        
        The python-twitter requires the use of OAuth keys for nearly all operations. As of Twitter's API v1.1, authentication is required for most, if not all, endpoints. Therefore, you will need to register an app with Twitter in order to use this library. Please see the "Getting Started" guide on https://python-twitter.readthedocs.io for a more information.
        
        To generate an Access Token you have to pick what type of access your application requires and then do one of the following:
        
        - `Generate a token to access your own account <https://dev.twitter.com/oauth/overview/application-owner-access-tokens>`_
        - `Generate a pin-based token <https://dev.twitter.com/oauth/pin-based>`_
        - use the helper script `get_access_token.py <https://github.com/bear/python-twitter/blob/master/get_access_token.py>`_
        
        For full details see the `Twitter OAuth Overview <https://dev.twitter.com/oauth/overview>`_
        
        To create an instance of the ``twitter.Api`` with login credentials (Twitter now requires an OAuth Access Token for all API calls)::
        
            >>> import twitter
            >>> api = twitter.Api(consumer_key='consumer_key',
                                  consumer_secret='consumer_secret',
                                  access_token_key='access_token',
                                  access_token_secret='access_token_secret')
        
        To see if your credentials are successful::
        
            >>> print(api.VerifyCredentials())
            {"id": 16133, "location": "Philadelphia", "name": "bear"}
        
        **NOTE**: much more than the small sample given here will print
        
        To fetch a single user's public status messages, where ``user`` is a Twitter user's screen name::
        
            >>> statuses = api.GetUserTimeline(screen_name=user)
            >>> print([s.text for s in statuses])
        
        To fetch a list a user's friends::
        
            >>> users = api.GetFriends()
            >>> print([u.name for u in users])
        
        To post a Twitter status message::
        
            >>> status = api.PostUpdate('I love python-twitter!')
            >>> print(status.text)
            I love python-twitter!
        
        There are many more API methods, to read the full API documentation either
        check out the documentation on `readthedocs
        <https://python-twitter.readthedocs.io>`_, build the documentation locally
        with::
        
            $ make docs
        
        or check out the inline documentation with::
        
            $ pydoc twitter.Api
        
        ----
        Todo
        ----
        
        Patches, pull requests, and bug reports are `welcome <https://github.com/bear/python-twitter/issues/new>`_, just please keep the style consistent with the original source.
        
        In particular, having more example scripts would be a huge help. If you have
        a program that uses python-twitter and would like a link in the documentation,
        submit a pull request against ``twitter/doc/getting_started.rst`` and add your
        program at the bottom.
        
        The twitter.Status and ``twitter.User`` classes are going to be hard to keep in sync with the API if the API changes. More of the code could probably be written with introspection.
        
        The ``twitter.Status`` and ``twitter.User`` classes could perform more validation on the property setters.

         Change PostUpdate() so that it takes the shortened link into
         account.  Small tweak to the patch provided to make the
         shortened-link length set by a API value instead of a constant.

         As described at https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/trends,
         GET trends (corresponding to Api.GetTrendsCurrent) is now
         deprecated in favor of GET trends/:woeid. GET trends also now
         requires authentication, while trends/:woeid doesn't.

         https://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=218
         Currently, two Trends containing the same information
         (name, query, and timestamp) aren't considered equal because
         __eq__ isn't overridden, like it is for Status, User, and the
         other Twitter objects.

         All variations on a theme - basically Twitter is returning
         something different for an error payload.  Changed code to
         check for both 'error' and 'errors'.

         A comment in this issue made me realize that the parameter sanity
         check for max_id was missing in GetMentions() - added
        
         First pass at working in some of the cursor support that has been
         in the Twitter API but we haven't made full use of - still working
         out the small issues.

         Added a basic, but sadly needed, check when parsing the json
         returned by Twitter as Twitter has a habit of returning the
         failwhale HTML page for a json api call :(

         Setting version to 0.8 for a bit as having a branch for this is

         Fixed source of the python-oauth2 library we use: from brosner
         to simplegeo
        
         I made a pass thru the docstrings and updated many to be the
         text from the current Twitter API docs.  Also fixed numerous
         whitespace issues and did a s/[optional]/[Optional]/ change.
        
         Imported work by Colin Howe that he did to get the tests working.

         I also updated GetFriendsTimeline() to follow the current
         Twitter API documentation
        
         Somewhere in the patch frenzy of today an extra GetStatus()
         def was introduced!?! Luckily it was caught by the tests.
         wooo tests! \m/

         http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=163
         Patch by yaemog which adds users/lookup support.
         Small tweaks to docstring only post-patch.
        
         Changed username/password parameter to Api class to be
         consumer_key/consumer_secret to better match the new
         oAuth only world that Twitter has demanded.
        
         Added debugHTTP to the parameter list to Api class to
         control if/when the urllib debug output is displayed.
        
        2010-08-25
        
         First pass at adding list support.
         Added a new List class and also added to the Api class
         new methods for working with lists:
        
           CreateList(self, user, name, mode=None, description=None)
           DestroyList(self, user, id)
           CreateSubscription(self, owner, list)
           DestroySubscription(self, owner, list)
           GetSubscriptions(self, user, cursor=-1)
           GetLists(self, user, cursor=-1)
        
        2010-08-24
        
         Fixed introduced bug in the Destroy* and Create* API calls
         where any of the routines were passing in an empty dict for
         POST data.  Before the oAuth change that was enough to tell
         _FetchUrl() to use POST instead of GET but now a non-empty
         dict is required.
        
         Issue 144
         http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=144
         GetFriends() where it was failing with a 'unicode object has
         no attribute get'. This was caused when Twitter changed how
         they return the JSON data. It used to be a straight list but
         now there are some elements *and* then the list.
        
        2010-08-18
        
         Applied the json/simplejson part of the patch found

         Applied patch provided by liris.pp in Issue 147
         http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=147
         Ensures that during a PostStatus we count the length using a unicode aware
         len() routine.  Tweaked patch slightly to take into account that the
         twitter.Api() instance may have been setup with None for input_encoding.
        
        2010-08-17
        
         Fixed error in the POST path for _FetchUrl() where by
         I show to the world that yes, I do make last minute
         changes and completely forget to test them :(
         Thanks to Peter Sanchez for finding and pointing to
         working code that showed the fix
        
        2010-08-15
        
         Added more help text (I hope it helps) to the README
         and also to get_access_token.py.
        
         Added doctext notes to twitter.Api() parameter list
         to explain more about oAuth.
        
         Added import exception handling for parse_qs() and
         parse_qsl() as it seems those funcitons moved between
         2.5 and 2.6 so the oAuth update broke the lib under
         python2.5.  Thanks to Rich for the bug find (sorry
         it had to be found the hard way!)
        
         from changeset 184:60315000989c by DeWitt
         Update the generated twitter.py docs to match the trunk
        
        2010-08-14
        
         Fixed silly typo in _FetchUrl() when doing a POST
         Thanks to Peter Sanchez for the find and fix!
        
         Added some really basic text to the get_access_token.py
         startup output that explains why, for now, you need to
         visit Twitter and get an Application key/secret to use
         this library
        
        2010-08-12
        
         Updated code to use python-oauth2 library for authentication.
         Twitter has set a deadline, 2010-08-16 as of this change, for
         the switch from Basic to oAuth.
        
         The oAuth integration was inspired by the work done by
         Hameedullah Khan and others.
        
         The change to using python-oauth2 library was done purely to
         align python-twitter with an oauth library that was maintained
         and had tests to try and minimize grief moving forward.
        
         Slipped into GetFriendsTimeline() a new parameter, retweets, to
         allow the call to pull from the "friends_timeline" or the
         "home_timeline".
        
         Fixed some typos and white-space issues and also updated the
         README to point to the new Twitter Dev site.

           This is required to completely mimick urllib, and have successful

         Applied partial patch for Issue 113
         http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=113
        
           The partial bit means we changed the parameter from "page" to "cursor"
           so the call would work.  What was left out was a more direct way
           to return the cursor value *after* the call and also in the patch
           they also changed the method to return an iterator.

         Issue 62 http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=62
         Applied patch from lukev123 that adds gzip compression to the GET
         requests sent to Twitter. The patch was modified to default gzip to
         False and to allow the twitter.API class instantiation to set the
         value to True.  This was done to not change current default
         behaviour radically.

         Issue 37 http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=37
         Added base_url to the twitter.API class init call to allow the user
         to override the default https://twitter.com base.  Since Twitter now
         supports https for all calls I (bear) changed the patch to default to
         https instead of http.
