Twitter

Let's discuss how we can set up a Python wrapper for Twitter API that is tweepy.

Some companies will actually release language specific API wrappers for their API, while others will just publish an API and an independent group will wrap their API in their programming language of choice. In Twitter’s case, they just published an API and several different individuals have wrapped it with Python. One of the most popular Python wrappers for the Twitter API is called tweepy. Let’s install it and give tweepy a try!

pip3 install tweepy
