Warning

Due to Twitter's complete decimation of its API, twt no longer works for most use cases and is thus not going to be maintained going forward.

twt

CLI tool to extract metadata from tweets

Install

Check out the website

Setup

This tool requires Twitter consumer keys to function. Twitter is moving to disallow free usage of the API, so you will have to steal their own keys to work around this.

twt picks up keys from $CONFIG_DIR/twt/config.toml (see here for your platform's interpretation of $CONFIG_DIR)

# config.toml
consumer_key = "totally_real_key"
consumer_key_secret = "h4xx0r"

Usage

Get image links

twt images --username archillect

Get video links

twt videos --username imgur

Set the maximum tweets to check

twt images --username archillect --max-amount 512

Get all links

twt links --username AITA_online --host bit.ly

For more help run: twt -h.
