About

TwitterMonitor is a small open source library to create monitoring routines of any nature using Twitter direct messages (DM).

For each notification request, the library will take all the followers of the configured account and instantly send a DM to each one.

Code example

There is an example below of a simple routine (RoutineTest class) that sends “A test message” to all of the followers of the account configured in the dictionary twitter_keys with a minimum interval of 10 minutes between each notification:

from twitter_monitor import core


# A simple routine example
class RoutineTest(core.Routine):

    name = u"Test Routine 1"  # Routine full name. ALWAYS USE UNICODE
    short_name = u"RT1"       # Routine short name (it'll be used in message). ALWAYS USE UNICODE

    interval_minutes = 10     # You can put a execution interval in minutes

    def _execute(self):
        # Put your logic here and use self.notify (bellow) to send messages. ALWAYS USE UNICODE MESSAGES
        self.notify(u"A test message...")


# Manage your keys and tokens on https://apps.twitter.com/
twitter_keys = {
    "consumer_key": "AaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaA",
    "consumer_secret": "AaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaA",
    "access_token_key": "999999999-AaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaA",
    "access_token_secret": "AaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaA",
}

# A list of routine classes
routines = [
    RoutineTest
]

core.ExecutorFactory(routines, twitter_keys).create_default().run()
