Twitter Stream

An application that constantly monitors one or more keywords.

This runs on UNIX or Cygwin. Tested on Python 2.7. Earlier versions might work.

• pip install TwitterAPI
• Copy config.json.sample to config.json
• Edit config.json to fill the API keys, search filters, and the location of the file to save.

Run:

nohup ./run.sh config.json &

Note: You need to use a different application for each connection

Log rotation

To keep the tweets file to a manageable size, use logrotate. Edit logrotate.conf and link to it from /etc/logrotate.d
