Stock values

If you want to use an already set-up application decrypt (and verify) assets/stock-app.toml.asc into $CONFIG_DIR/app.toml.

Simple usage

First, enter the app data you got when making a Twitter app on https://dev.twitter.com (or use the stock values for a pre-set app):

tweetr init
App key: ...
App secret: ...

Then, authorise users by pasting the provided link into a logged-in browser then entering the resulting PIN:

tweetr add-user
Visit this URL: ...
Enter the PIN from that page: ...

Afterwards add tweets:

tweetr queue-tweets
Author (or empty to finish): ...
Tweet content: ...
Time to post the tweet (RFC2822 or RFC3339): ...

Author (or empty to finish):

At any point after init you can start the daemon, which will be posting tweets:

tweetr start-daemon
Posted tweet "..." scheduled for ... by ... at ... with ID ...
Posted tweet "..." scheduled for ... by ... at ... with ID ...
