auto-twitter-space

Overview

A program that tracks twitter spaces and sends it to a discord webhook. It uses the twitter api to find twitter spaces and then the m3u8 url for the space is found using selenium and will have it printed on console and posted using a discord webhook. Optionally It can also download the twitter space after it ends.

Installation and Requirements

This program requires a few non-standard modules all of which can be installed using the requirements text file. A requirements text file has been included and the command pip3 install -r requirements.txt (or pip) can be used to install the required dependencies(except FFMPEG and ChromeDriver). ChromeDriver is also required to get the m3u8 url so make sure the chrome driver version matches your browser version. Also ensure chromedriver is in the same directory as this program.

How To Use

Since this program runs and obtains the Twitter Spaces through the twitter API, users must go to the twitter developer portal and sign up or login. Afterwards, create a project app and obtain the API Key and Secret, Bearer Token, and the Access Token. Put these information inside the const.py(if you haven't already renamed const.py.example to const.py, do so now)

With the Twitter authorization/authentication out of the way you can optionally obtain the discord webhook url and put it in const.py if you want Twitter Space notification to also be posted onto your discord channel.

Optionally you can also specify whether to download the Twitter Space and/or the download location. There are two download options one using the default twspace.py file provided which will only download Twitter Space from the Japan area and can post the downloaded file to discord within it's limits. The second download method is by using Ryu's downloader. Download is optional as it has not been thoroughly tested so use at your own risk(just double check if the file was downloaded and whether it is the full file)

With all the setting up out of the way the program can run by calling the main/index file twitter_space_bot.py

Note: Do not share these key and tokens!

Note 2: I was not the original creator of twspace.py, credits go to whoever made it on our group discord server! I had to make a lot of changes to suit my own needs though.

Note 3: The API limit for twitter spaces are 300 requests per a 15 minute window. The program makes 1 request per interval so adjust the SLEEP_TIME accordingly. If for some reason the m3u8 url can't seemingly be found increase the SLEEP_TIME.

Note 4: So far this has only been tested on Windows 10 and with the chrome driver.
