Show the latest tweets from Elon Musk and Donald Trump!
tuitui is a CLI tool that pulls the latest tweets from Elon Musk and Donald Trump to your command line so you can check out what they're saying during your brief 3 second break before moving on to the next task.
This is really inspired to solve a problem of my own. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are the two twitter stars that I constant pay attention to(paying attention doesn't mean I'm big fan, just means it's a source of information I'm always checking, sometimes just to entertain myself)
Download latest executables for OSX and Linux from Github releases.
So far I've only tested and confirmed it's working on darwin_amd64
After downloading put the executable in your PATH
mv ~/Downloads/tuitui_darwin_amd64 /usr/local/bin/tuitui
And you can use with tuitui
If you get permission denied error when trying to execute this, do a chmod 777 on the file
chmod 777 /usr/local/bin/tuitui
tuitui login will promp you to enter twitter credentails, you'll only need to do this once.
This app requires certain credentials from twitter in order for it to work(credential to use twitter API).
You will need a Twitter App in order to obtain credentials from twitter. If you don't have one yet, it takes 5 minutes to create an empty twitter app here(no coding required)
Once you've done that, go to Keys and Access Tokens tab and obtain the following credentials:
-
Consumer Key
-
Consumer Secret
-
Access Token
-
Access Token Secret
Enter these credentials as promped.
tuitui elon
tuitui trump
Enjoy!
