This plugin has the following functionality:

1. If somebody got banned or kick this plugin will tweet player name, reason, expiration time, admin name

2. Admin can tweet ingame

3. Tweets from another twitter account can be printed ingame

Download: https://github.com/bmamba/b3-plugin-twitter/zipball/v1.1

You need at least 1.7.x

This plugin is similar to Ban Tweeter.

You can see the result here: http://twitter.com/chiLLUrT (all posts beginning with "Bot:").

Changelog:

- admin can tweet ingame


v1.1

  - expiration time of the ban
  - admin name
- plugin prints tweets of another twitter account
- Bugfix: b3 changed data for EVT_CLIENT_BAN_TEMP and EVT_CLIENT_BAN

Greetings BlackMamba and all,

Just got done trying to install and use the twitter plugin for bans on B3 for UrT. An error message in b3.log said:
110822 23:25:39   BOT       Starting Plugin b3twitter
110822 23:25:39   ERROR   STDERR Twitter now requires an oAuth Access Token for API calls.
110822 23:25:39   ERROR   STDERR If your using this library from a command line utility, please
110822 23:25:39   ERROR   STDERR run the the included get_access_token.py tool to generate one

(by the way, this was the same error we got in attempting to use the Ban Tweeter plugin by Bakes)

We fixed this error by putting the username and password of the twitter account into consumer_secret and access_token_secret of the b3twitter.xml file. The B3 would crash if at least those two were not filled in. Not sure what exactly needs to go into these 4 fields, or even if all 4 fields need to have a value put in.
   <settings name="authentication">
      <set name="consumer_key"></set>
      <set name="consumer_secret"></set>
      <set name="access_token"></set>
      <set name="access_token_secret"></set>
   </settings>


The libraries and such are installed correctly it seems.

Any help to solve this and get it working would be appreciated. nice job

You cannot use your normal login data to access the twitter api. You have to go to
https://dev.twitter.com/apps/new
to create a new application. After creation you have to change the read only mode to read and write and then create the tokens.

[BlackMamba]

Some time ago it was possible that applications could using the twitter api. So the apps could write on your twitter account if they knew your username and password. But this is not possible anymore. Now you need four tokens (text strings), two for identifying your app (consumer tokens) and two which allow your app to access your twitter account (access tokens). The gain is that you don't need to give your login data to the app. If you don't want that the app can access your account anymore you can delete the access tokens and don't need to change your password or any tokens for other apps.

I wrote a short tutorial how to get the tokens from twitter:

[Father Goose]

Ah ok. Thanks for that info and we should be set if we get this going.

[BlackMamba]

I added a new version (see first post).

The plugin tweets expiration time and admin name additionally. There are some changes from 1.6 to 1.7, thats why the plugin needs to get fixed. As a result you need at least 1.7.0 now.

You can add another twitter account. Tweets from this account will be printed ingame.

BlackMamba - hope you can help

Very nice plugin. I am trying it out on my aIW servers.

[GrossKopf]

Well, added this just like any other external plugin and I get this error in the b3 log:

Did you install the extra libs?

[GrossKopf]

Did you install the extra libs?

I didn't see anything about extra libs in the directions.

[MordyT]

You can TRY installing this in the b3 folder. I don't know if this is what you need, but simple test.

http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/ and http://pypi.python.org/pypi/simplejson

And this needs a lib from what I can tell, but could be wrong.

Weird it is not in the instructions.
