Twerk

This is a Selenium-powered tool to browse Twitter and automatically block fake accounts.

Setup

Install the project from source:

$ git clone https://github.com/jacebrowning/twerk
$ cd twerk
$ poetry install

Verify browser automation is working:

$ poetry run twerk check --debug --browser=chrome
$ poetry run twerk check --debug --browser=firefox

The $TWITTER_USERNAME and $TWITTER_PASSWORD environment variables can be set to avoid manually typing account credentials.

Most commands accept a --browser option or you can set $BROWSER to avoid specifying this each time.

The $TWITTER_SEED_USERNAME can be set to override the default starting account when searching for fake accounts.
