# twitterpersona

Twitter is a popular social media app with over 1 billion user accounts. While a diversity of users is a strength, some individuals have concerns with the prevalence of "troll" accounts and individuals who exhibit unconstructive tone and diction whom they deem not worth engaging with.
The package twitterpersona is intended to provide insight into a twitter user based on their tweet history in effort to determine if an account is worth engaging with. The package provides an easy to use interface for determining the general sentiment expressed by a user.

## Quick Start

To get started with `twitterpersona`, install it using `pip`:

```bash
$ pip install twitterpersona
```
Please visit the [documentation](https://twitterpersona.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest) for more information and examples.''

To get twitter developer account, please find follow instructions and apply one at https://developer.twitter.com/en

1. Log-in to Twitter and verify your email address. (Note that the email and phone number verification from your Twitter account may be needed to apply for a developer account, review on the Twitter help center: email address confirmation or add phone number.)
2. Click sign up at developer.twitter.com to enter your developer account name, location and use case details
3. Review and accept the developer agreement and submit
4. Check your email to verify your developer account. Look for an email from developer-accounts@twitter.com that has the subject line: "Verify your Twitter Developer Account" Note: the developer-accounts@twitter.com email is not available for inbound requests.
5. You should now have access to the Developer Portal to create a new App and Project with Essential access, or will need to continue your application with Elevated access
If you apply for Elevated access (or Academic Research access) please continue to check your verified email for information about your application.

## Classes and Functions
1. `load_twitter_msg`: returns a user's recent tweets (as a dataframe) given their `user id` using the Twitter API.
   1. `user_info()`: get user credentials details
   2. `load_twitter_by_user()`: load specific user's tweets
   3. `load_twitter_by_keywords()`: load specific keyword's tweets
2. `sentiment_analysis`: determines the general (average) sentiment of recent tweets
   1. `sentiment_labler()`: returns all tweets with the corresponding labels
3. `preprocessing`: a spotter that identifies credit card numbers
   1. `generalPreprocessing`: returns the processed tweet dataframe
4. `generate_word_cloud`: a spotter that identifies credit card numbers
   1. `create_wordcloud`: returns a matplotlib plot of the wordcloud

Below is a simple quick start example:

```python
from twitterpersona import load_twitter_msg, sentiment_analysis, preprocessing, generate_word_cloud

# Create a cleanser, and don't add the default spotters
user = user_info('consumer key', 'consumer secret', 'access_token', 'token_secret')
twitter_df = load_twitter_by_user('someuser', 30, user)
sentiment_df = sentiment_labler(twitter_df, 'text')
cleaned_df = generalPreprocessing(sentiment_df)
plt = generate_word_cloud(cleaned_df)
```
In order to run test, you need to first install the vader_lexicon package

```bash
$ python -m nltk.downloader vader_lexicon
```
## Scope and Fit

There are existing packages that preform tweet analysis (including [twitter-sentiment-analysis](https://github.com/abdulfatir/twitter-sentiment-analysis), [tweetlytics](https://github.com/UBC-MDS/tweetlytics), and [pytweet](https://github.com/UBC-MDS/pytweet)). However, none of these packages focus of providing metrics in the context of determining if the twitter user is worth engaging with.
