Hello, I've spent the last couple of nights hacking away at a Python wrapper for the Twitter API that I can use for various things.
I'm having trouble with one of the methods: user_timeline. ( http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/web/api-documentation#HelpMethods ). This is the only method that is returning a HTTP 401. It seems strange and I'm not sure how to debug it further as the other methods requring authentication work. Please keep in mind the code is missing alot of polish :) - Though I'm open to suggestions on improvements. If anyone is familiar with this I'd really appreciate a hint as it has me stumped! (I really need this method for my functionality too!) --- import urllib2, urllib, urlparse class TwitterMethods(object): def __init__(self): pass def url_request(self,uri,authentication=None): auth = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler() netlock = urlparse.urlparse(uri) if authentication: passwdMgr = urllib2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm() passwdMgr.add_password(None,netlock[1],authentication.username,authentication.password) auth = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(passwdMgr) req = urllib2.Request(uri) o = urllib2.build_opener(auth) try: f = o.open(req) print f.readlines([0]) except o.error: print "error" #except: # print "unknown error" return def UserTimeline(self,authentication): self.url_request("http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.xml ",authentication) class TwitterAuth(object): def __init__(self,username,password): self.username = username self.password = password p = TwitterMethods() auth = TwitterAuth('[EMAIL PROTECTED]','password') p.UserTimeline(auth)
