Verified usage

Wrong: Api is exposed at the top-level package, not submodule.

from twitter import Api

Authenticate and post a tweet.

from twitter import Api consumer_key = os.environ.get('TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY', '') consumer_secret = os.environ.get('TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET', '') access_token_key = os.environ.get('TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_KEY', '') access_token_secret = os.environ.get('TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET', '') api = Api(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token_key, access_token_secret) status = api.PostUpdate('Hello world!') print(status.text)
