# untweet
A little command line utility that destroys likes and tweets.
## Install

release](https://github.com/imwally/untweet/releases/latest) for macOS

### Go
`go get -u github.com/imwally/untweet/cmd/untweet`
## Requirements
To communicate with Twitter's API you will need the following:
- Consumer Key
- Consumer Secret
- Access Token

Which means you will need to create an app through [Twitter's developer
portal](https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/basics/getting-started).

`untweet`. Environment variables are also supported:
```
TWITTER_API_KEY
TWITTER_API_KEY_SECRET
TWITTER_API_TOKEN
TWITTER_API_TOKEN_SECRET
```
or use command line flags:
```
-key string
Twitter API Consumer Key
-key-secret string
Twitter API Secret Key
-token string
Twitter API Access Token
-token-secret string
Twitter API Access Token Secret
```
