Afternoon all
Currently i have a twitter bot that retweets, Likes & follows the user but the only problem i have is that it will only do that with a hashtag. its running off tweepy. is there anyway i can change the hashtag to a url instead. so i replace the hashtag with url to the tweet and it will still follow, like and retweet?
Heres my code
from time import sleep
from anettecurtain import *
from config import QUERY, FOLLOW, LIKE, SLEEP_TIME
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)
api = tweepy.API(auth)
print("Twitter bot which retweets,like tweets and follow users")
print("Bot Settings")
print("Like Tweets :", LIKE)
print("Follow users :", FOLLOW)
for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, q=QUERY).items():
try:
print('\nTweet by: @' + tweet.user.screen_name)
tweet.retweet()
print('Retweeted the tweet')
# Favorite the tweet
if LIKE:
tweet.favorite()
print('Favorited the tweet')
# Follow the user who tweeted
#check that bot is not already following the user
if FOLLOW:
if not tweet.user.following:
tweet.user.follow()
print('Followed the user')
sleep(SLEEP_TIME)
except tweepy.TweepError as e:
print(e.reason)
except StopIteration:
break```
***AND MY CONFIG FILE ***
```# Edit this config file as you like
QUERY = '#hashtag'
LIKE = True
FOLLOW = True
SLEEP_TIME = 1```
