Telegram 2 Twitter bot

Description

This bot lets you send a text message to any of your telegram channel, and then it will be automatically posted to your Twitter account as well. Only text is supported as of now.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/fosslife/tg2twitter.git

pipenv shell
pipenv install

make a file called .env. Get following keys from respective developer account

TG_API_ID=''
TG_API_HASH=''

TWITTER_CLIENT_KEY=''
TWITTER_CLIENT_SECRET=''

TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN=''
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET=''

CHANNEL_NAME=your_channel_name_or_id

Getting twitter API keys is a Huge mess. I followed this tutorial

Then run the bot

python3 main.py

Usage

If bot runs successfully you need to sign in to your telegram account first. after that just send a message with .tweet at the start. bot will automatically post that message to your twitter ex:

.tweet Hello Telegram and Twitter

PS: just send this to channel, the bot will automatically delete this entire message immedietly, remove the .tweet part from message automatically and post the original text in both places.
