How to Create a Bot for Twitter in Julia


This tutorial details the main steps to create a simple bot in the Julia programming language. This bot can publish new content on behalf of your twitter account.

Requirements: Access to the twitter API and Julia v1.1 or latter.

Download the Code

Go to https://github.com/jmejia8/TeoBot.jl and download the source code of the TeoBot

The credentials for accessing to the twitter API can be requested here.

Save those credentials in ENV variables (see documentation).

Required values:

ENV["TWITTER_CKEY"]
ENV["TWITTER_CSEC"]
ENV["TWITTER_OTOK"]
ENV["TWITTER_OSEC"].

After that, download TeoBot and cd to this project, then in terminal (linux or similar) execute:

julia --project=./ --color=yes scripts/scripts.jl

In scripts/ you'll find some examples.
