""" I have been experimenting to see which web framework would make the better | |
wrapper for Tweepy. I decided on Django, with the Allauth package. | |
Afer going through the Django-Allauth Tutorial at | |
https://wsvincent.com/django-allauth-tutorial/ and playing with the DjangoTweepy repository at | |
https://github.com/martinjc/DjangoTweepy/blob/master/src/twitter_auth/utils.py, | |
this is what I contrived. | |
USAGE: | |
from . utils import get_api | |
... | |
api = get_api(request) | |
me = api.me() | |
screen_name = me.screen_name | |
whoami = api.get_user(screen_name) | |
print(whoami) | |
