TweetsGrabber
=============
*Backup your Twitter*

Installation
------------
git clone https://github.com/tam7t/tweetsgrabber.git
cd tweetsgrabber

TweetsGrabber uses the `tweepy` library to communicate with twitter. `tweepy`
is available from [github](https://github.com/tweepy/tweepy).

Usage
-----
python tg.py

Your web browser will be directed to twitter authentication page. Once
authenticated, input the provided PIN to the console. The script will then
create the following files:

* friends.csv
* followers.csv
* timeline.csv

The following elements have not been implemented:

* lists
* favorites
* direct messages

tweepy
------
* timelines incorrectly use `page` for pagination. According to latest
twitter documentation, the parameter `max_id` should be used instead.
