sdthirlwall/twitrssme repository overview

⁠TwitRSS.me

TwitRSS.me⁠ is a web service that let you generate an RSS feed⁠ from your Twitter user timeline, or from a Twitter search.

It does this by connecting to Twitter on the web and screenscraping the data, rather than by using the Twitter API⁠.

⁠Installation

You can install TwitRSS.me by following the instructions in the INSTALL.md⁠ file.

The main reason for doing so is that the caching limits (one query every 45 minutes) is proving restrictive.

⁠History

You can see a bunch of TwitRSS.me blog posts⁠ on Charlie Harvey's site. They mostly deal with me being increasingly freaked out about the amount of traffic that is turning up.

⁠Licence

The code for TwitRSS.me is released under the GNU GPL licence version 2 (See the LICENSE file) and is copyright of the contributors — Charlie Harvey and Daniel Perelman at time of writing.

The website content is released under CC-BY-SA⁠ — Charlie Harvey and James Lu at time of writing.
