Twitter bot maker

Description

Twitter bot maker generate Twitter bot without coding. The bot tweets texts provided by you randomly.

Environment

Python 3.4.3

Usage

You can get Twitter bot through web page or locally with this app. I suggest using web page because you don't have to install Tweepy as your local library.

Use web

Access to Twitter's developer page and get Twitter's Consumer key and Consumer secret.

Prepare tweets text file like this

    Hello, world
    Go
    Python
    Ruby
    C
    C++
    Java
    JavaScript
    ShellScript
    Tokyo
    Australia
    United Status
    Japan
    Kyoto
    Nara
    にゃんぱすー

Access to Web page and enter Twitter's Consumer key and Consumer srcret and upload tweets text file. And then we can download our own Twitter bot.
I'm sorry, you will take little time to access the site due to Using Heroku.
