How to post a tweet to twitter from Isadora

[lois]

I found a thread on the forum about receiving tweets in Isadora. I would like to know if anyone knows the simplest solution for sending tweets from Isadora. The goal is to have random text generated from within Isadora (this part we don't need help with) that is then tweeted through one twitter account set up for this (the part we aren't sure how to do!).

Thanks for any advice!

personally I think the simplest solution is to send OSC to a script (maybe python or processing) that then submit the post using Oauth/twitter libraries.

@lois what platform are you on?

Thanks for the replies. I'm on a Mac.

I believe Macs have python installed by default so that might be the most convenient. Python also will have the easiest libraries to use.

It's probably possible ( I remember a post where someone did the encryption required for oauth in Isadora) but it will be a much more complicated path.

I would go with node red, I think it is the simplest fastest solution, you can use OSC from Isadora and parse the OSC in Node red and send to twitter. Node red is node based so no coding and a lot of good tutorials and support.

 Do you have a link for node red? Google is giving me lots of results, not sure which is the correct or right one. Thanks.
