A Scheduled Tweet bot written in Python to run on a Raspberry Pi (runs anywhere Python and the dependencies are installed).
Run the bot with the command python bot.py.
The above command runs the bot, loops it every 60 seconds, makes fresh database connections every 300 seconds and only says it's stil running after 15 loops. You can edit the default values, just use python bot.py --help to see all options.
Requires you install mysql-connector and Tweepy.
Download mysql-connecter from here: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/
If you're using this on a RPi then you'll likely want the architecture independant .deb file.
You can install Tweepy using pip, easy_install or any other method that gets it's pacages from PyPy:
pip install tweepy
##Setup
