I'm using it at logon for mine as well. I think most of us are just using cobbled together python scripts.

Mine runs during the prelogin menu as a Mytic Python Module. Here's the logintweet.mpy that I am using. You'll need to set up a Twitter App and populate the keys below with your own info.


##############################################################
## INITIALIZE BBS FUNCTIONS AND DEFINE ANY GLOBAL VARIABLES ## ##############################################################
import tweepy
import sys
import datetime
from mystic_bbs import *
# Consumer keys and access tokens, used for OAuth
consumer_key = ''
consumer_secret = ''
access_token = ''
access_token_secret = ''


# OAuth process, using the keys and tokens
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret) auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)
thisuser = getuser(0); # read the currently logged in user into thisuser
# Creation of the actual interface, using authentication
writeln("Please Hold On....Updating Shadowscope Twitter Status!");
api = tweepy.API(auth)

tweet_text = thisuser["handle"] + " logged into Shadowscope BBS at " + datetime.datetime.strftime(datetime.datetime.now(), '%I:%H:%M%p') api.update_status(status=tweet_text)

Hopefully it will display properly in here. Besides removing my Keys I also removed some of the formatting pipe codes from the writeln statement.

I'm simply using little BASH scripts to monitor NODEx.LOG and send tweets on status triggering - to interface Twitter APIs to shell I've found twurl,
after tokens validation. Do you get my posts? I've the doubt, since a little time...

ok got all my keys set, but the script is not working , I think my oauth is failing , do you use a return url ?. When using the test oauth feature on the twitter dev it says " sorry that page does not exist "
thanks

No, no callback url. Have you tested it from the commandline just using
python rather than throwing mystic into the mix? That's what I had to do
first just to make sure it was working properly.

Is that running it as a .py from the commandline or running the .mpy from the BBS?

If you just want to run to test from the commandline try this one:

import tweepy
import sys

# Consumer keys and access tokens, used for OAuth
consumer_key = 'CONSUMEERKEY'
consumer_secret = 'CONSUMERSECRET'
access_token = 'ACCESSTOKEN'
access_token_secret = 'ACCESSSECRET'

# OAuth process, using the keys and tokens
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret) auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)

# Creation of the actual interface, using authentication
api = tweepy.API(auth)

if len(sys.argv) >= 2:
tweet_text = sys.argv[1]

else:
tweet_text = "Still messing about with tweepy and twitter API. :)"

if len(tweet_text) <= 140:
api.update_status(status=tweet_text)
else:
print "tweet not sent. Too long. 140 chars Max."

Not sure if I left it all out or not. Just got home from the hospital and am pretty loopy on pain medication. Just looking through my hard drive I believe that was my initial test prior to using it in Mystic.

If you just want to run to test from the commandline try this one:

ok that error was from the command prompt, I ran the test script you gave me and if you didn't see it w.....it worked great...

however the main script still gives me the import error so ......

1: What is the import mystic_bbs string trying to point to
2: what does your mystic command line look like

thanks
