**UPDATE**: A more complete example is up on [GitHub](http://github.com/henriklied/django-twitter-oauth/tree/master) Based around Simon Willison's [Fire Eagle oAuth](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/655/), this will allow you to develop Twitter oAuth applications (…that is – if you're in the closed beta)
Post new saved objects to Twitter. **Example:** from django.db import models class MyModel(models.Model): text = models.CharField(max_length=255) link = models.CharField(max_length=255) def __unicode__(self): return u'%s' % self.text def get_absolute_url(self): return self.link # the following method is optional def get_twitter_message(self): return u'my-custom-twitter-message: %s - %s' % (self.text, self.link) models.signals.post_save.connect(post_to_twitter, sender=MyModel)
This template can be included by other template passing the vars page_url and title: {% with content.get_url as page_url %} {% with content.title as title %} {% include 'share.html' %} {% endwith %} {% endwith %}
This filter links twitter user names prefixed with '@', hash tags, and URLs. Usage example: `{{var|twitterize}}` Note: Do not use this in conjunction with the urlize filter. Twitterize does this for you.
Requires the twitter module (easy_install python_twitter). Your project settings file should define TWITTER_USERNAME. Call the tag like: ` {% get_twitter_status as tweet tweet_time tweet_url %} <p><q cite="{{ tweet_url }}">{{ tweet }}</q> ({{ tweet_time }})</p> ` **EDIT**: I've also included an alternative method as suggested in the comments. Called with: ` {% get_twitter_status as tweet %} <p><q cite="{{ tweet.url }}">{{ tweet.status }}</q> ({{ tweet.time }})</p> `
Improved for BootStrap details: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/ Using: class AnyForm(forms.Form, CustomForm): pass Template: <form> {{ form.render_errors }} {{ form.as_div }} </form>
A simple template filter for parsing tweets (linking @ replies, hashtages and standard URLs whilst stripping out links to yFrog and TwitPic images), and two simple tags for displaying the yFrog and TwitPic images linked to in tweets. If you put the snippet in a file called tweets.py, as long as it lives in an app's templatetags directory, you should be able to do the following (where `text` refers to the text of a tweet): {% load twitter %} <p>{{ text|tweet }}</p> {% yfrog_images text 1 'fancybox' %} {% twitpic_images text 1 'fancybox' %} The first argument in the two tags controls how many images to render. Set this to -1 for an unlimited number, per tweet. Thumbnail images are displayed, and you can specify the class that is applied to the `<a>` tags rendered. Here I've used 'fancybox', and I would normally include jQuery code to turn the images inside the `<a>` tags into lightboxes.
Improved version of my snippet #1346. Now works correctly with multiple usernames and hash tags. Both twitter usernames and hashtags are converted into links to twitter profiles and twitter search. Updated, forgot about underscores in usernames.
Adapted from #848 to basically copy the reply tag and create it again as a hash tag filter. Kudos to ryanberg, not me. will be in use on my website soon (www.dougalmatthews.com) for a demo.
Assume you have a model called Delegate and you want to tweet whenever a new Delegate registers, the code above will do this. You need to install python-twitter.
TwitterBackend is the twitter authentication backend. This backend makes use of OAuth based "Sign-in with Twitter" Configure your settings.py as per [Django - Specifying Authentication Backends](http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#specifying-authentication-backends)
Based on [http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1615/](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1615/) Added tweets cache. Cache time is configurable through project settings: TWITTER_TIMEOUT=300. Default time is 300 seconds = 5 minutes. This improve performance by reducing the twitter api queries interval.
Ah simple_tag for get last update of twitter. How twitter limit the fetch rss so, add cache tag for each 30min ( 60*30) update the twitter. if.
This template filter is rewritten, courtesy of Eric Moritz. It is meant to be used when displaying status messages from Twitter. A regular expression is used to replace all @username replies with a link to that user's Twitter page. In use at [http://ryanberg.net/blog/statuses/](http://ryanberg.net/blog/statuses/)
Takes a tweet url, requests the json from Twitter oEmbed, parses the json for the html element and returns it to your template. The html returned is ready to go and will be shown as a tweet on your web page. This uses the Requests library for Python. A full example can be found on GitHub https://github.com/z3ke1r/django-tweet-embed.
