The Twitter module works. You can use it to ask Twitter to authenticate, go to the Twitter website, enter user and password, and save a token on your computer.
I use this code to search Twitter statuses (real-time search is a bit different than standard Twitter search).
Code:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import os
import twitter
import json
import csv
from twitter.oauth import write_token_file, read_token_file
from twitter.oauth_dance import oauth_dance
def login():
# Go to http://twitter.com/apps/new to create an app and get these items.
# See also http://dev.twitter.com/pages/oauth_single_token.
APP_NAME = 'xxx'
CONSUMER_KEY = 'xxx'
CONSUMER_SECRET = 'xxx'
TOKEN_FILE = '/token.txt'
try:
(oauth_token, oauth_token_secret) = read_token_file(TOKEN_FILE)
except IOError, e:
(oauth_token, oauth_token_secret) = oauth_dance(APP_NAME, CONSUMER_KEY,
CONSUMER_SECRET)
print e.errno
print e
if not os.path.isdir('out'):
os.mkdir('out')
write_token_file(TOKEN_FILE, oauth_token, oauth_token_secret)
auth=twitter.oauth.OAuth(oauth_token, oauth_token_secret,CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET)
return twitter.TwitterStream(auth = auth, secure = True)
if __name__=="__main__":
t = login()
res = t.statuses.filter(track = "search text")
res_list = []
tweetfields = set()
for r in res:
if len(res_list)<100:
print len(res_list)
res_list.append(r)
tweetfields = tweetfields.union(r.keys())
else:
break
fname = '/results.csv'
f = open(fname,'w')
dw = csv.DictWriter(f,fieldnames=list(tweetfields))
dw.writeheader()
for r in res_list:
dw.writerow({k:v.encode('utf8') if isinstance(v,unicode) else v for k,v in r.items()})
f.close()
print [result['text'] for result in res_list]

If we directly interface with the new API as following, how do we get it to work considering we need to be logged in with OAuth?
>>> import twitter
>>> client = twitter.Api(username='yourusername', password='yourpassword')
>>> update = client.PostUpdate('The Twitter API is easy')
