Twitter Reporter

[Kymru]

i have a few RPi's laying around doing nothing, so i thought i would put one to use by turning it into a Privoxy + Tor server

on my quest to find info on how to do this again i come across a project from Anonymous about a twitter reporter, scanning over the one file i noticed you could use Privoxy and Tor

went though the motions of installing it, following this Linky thing, go to the end and got this little error:-

RuntimeError: Could not find firefox in your system PATH. Please specify the firefox binary location or install firefox

anyone know how to over come this problem?


using latest Raspbian by the way

Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 7.8 (wheezy)
Release: 7.8
Codename: wheezy

Are you trying to send or receive tweets?

Reading a timeline with python and tweepy is trivial.

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/python
import tweepy


Ckey = "redactedConsumerKey"
Csec = "redactedmyVerySecureConsumerSecret"
Akey = "redactedApplicationKey"
Asec = "redactedmyVerySecureApplicationSecret"

auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(Ckey, Csec)
auth.set_access_token(Akey, Asec)
twapi = tweepy.API(auth)

mymentions= twapi.mentions_timeline(count=10)
for status in mymentions:
  print " "
  print status.text, "by @" + status.user.screen_name + " "

Sending a tweet is almost as simple.

Are you trying to send or receive tweets?

it would be send a tweet i guess, after following the link in my last post, saving the code below as TR5.py

when i run python TR5.py -u TWITTER -i 5K.txt i get the error RuntimeError: Could not find firefox in your system PATH. Please specify the firefox binary location or install firefox

but Debian doesnt come with Firefox, just Iceweasel

You can try

sudo apt-get install iceweasel
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/firefox /usr/bin/iceweasel

but it probably won't work.

So far i know "firefox" is redirected to iceweasel automatically if iceweasel is installed.

Perhaps the OP doesn't have iceweasel installed.

Perhaps the OP doesn't have iceweasel installed.

In that case, what is the point in redirecting firefox to iceweasel?
