I have no experience coding with Python but I wanted to experiment with twitter so I asked Google's Bard to set up a twitter bot that publishes AI news every hour. I have the API keys but I will not include them for obvious reasons. When I try to run it on my terminal, it says that there is incorrect syntax on line 17. If anyone could help me fix this, as I have no idea how to do it myself. This is the code:
import tweepy
import requests
from newsapi import NewsAPIClient
def get_news():
"""Gets a list of news articles about Artificial Intelligence."""
newsapi = NewsAPIClient(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
top_headlines = newsapi.get_top_headlines(sources="techcrunch,theverge",
q="artificial intelligence")
return top_headlines["articles"]
def generate_tweet(article):
"""Generates a tweet for a news article."""
title = article["title"]
description = article["description"]
url = article["url"]
tweet = f"#AINews: {title.text} - {description.text} - {url}"
return tweet
def post_tweet(tweet):
"""Posts a tweet to Twitter."""
api = tweepy.API(auth=auth)
api.update_status(tweet)
def main():
# Get the Twitter API keys and tokens from the environment.
consumer_key = os.environ['CONSUMER_KEY']
consumer_secret = os.environ['CONSUMER_SECRET']
access_token = os.environ['ACCESS_TOKEN']
access_token_secret = os.environ['ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET']
# Create an auth object with the API keys and tokens.
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)
# Get a list of news articles about Artificial Intelligence.
news_articles = get_news()
# Generate tweets for each news article.
tweets = [generate_tweet(article) for article in news_articles]
# Post the tweets to Twitter.
for tweet in tweets:
post_tweet(tweet)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
I tried to ask ChatGPT and Bard to fix it. They changed description in line 17 into a string and then into a dictionary but neither of those worked.
