Post to Facebook/Twitter using Django?

Question

Maybe I've already found the answer on Google but I don't recognize it so I resort to you guys.

What packages do I need? A tutorial would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

A package such as django-socialregistration would allow you to authenticate with both.

Alternatively, you could roll your own using one of these:

• Facebook python-sdk
• python-twitter

Answer 2

You want Twython:

Believe me, I have been down this road, and the example Django views in the link above are the most straightforward of twitter oauth2 examples.
