Re: modify date in django twitter app

[het.oosten]

I figured it out finally.

For anybody who is interested. I have this setup for showing multiple
tweets:

settings.py:
from django.conf.global_settings import TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS + (
"wieskamp.verkoop.context_processors.latest_tweet",
)

TWITTER_USER = "username"
TWITTER_TIMEOUT = 3600

This context_processor:
import datetime
import time
from django.conf import settings
from django.core.cache import cache
import twitter

def latest_tweet( request ):
tweet = cache.get( 'tweet' )

if tweet:
return {"tweet": tweet}

tweet = twitter.Api().GetUserTimeline( settings.TWITTER_USER,
count=3 )
for s in tweet:
s.date =
datetime.datetime(*(time.strptime( s.created_at, "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S
+ %Y" )[0:6]))
cache.set( 'tweet', tweet, settings.TWITTER_TIMEOUT )

return {"tweet": tweet}

And this in my template:
{% if tweet %}
{% for x in tweet %}
{{ x.text|urlize}} 
{{ x.date|date:"d/m/Y" }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

Thanks for the help and hints :-)

I think this may help

http://www.magpiebrain.com/2005/08/21/formatting-dates-with-django/

try using strftime and formatting from there.

Re: modify date in django twitter app

[het.oosten]

I am getting somewhere now:

import datetime
import time
import twitter

tweet  = twitter.Api().GetUserTimeline('username', count=3)
for s in tweet:
s.date = datetime.datetime(*(time.strptime( s.created_at,"%a
%b %d %H:%M:%S + %Y" )[0:6]))
print [x.text for x in tweet]
print [y.date for y in tweet]

However the output is now:
[datetime.datetime(2010, 3, 1, 16, 51, 55), datetime.datetime(2010, 2,
22, 20, 46, 3), datetime.datetime(2010, 2, 20, 10, 16, 2)]

I still miss a little thing to completeanybody a little hint?

Thank you for the reply. When i add the [0] to tweet, the date
conversion is only applied to the last tweet

I don't know the Twitter API, but you're calling GetUserTimeline with
a count of 3, which presumably returns a list of 3 items. The list
itself doesn't have a 'created_at' attribute, hence the error. Perhaps
if you did:

tweet = twitter.Api().GetUserTimeline(settings.TWITTER_USER,
count=3) [0]

you would have better luck.

modify date in django twitter app

[het.oosten]

I am almost done implementing tweets on my site using a tutorial which
a found here:
http://www.omh.cc/blog/2008/aug/4/adding-your-twitter-status-django-site/

The problem is that i want to modify the date output when i retrieve
multiple tweets. The example above is written for retrieving only one
most recent tweet from twitter.

The context_preprocessor i have now is (mostly taken from the site
above):

import datetime
import time
from django.conf import settings
from django.core.cache import cache
import twitter

def latest_tweet( request ):
tweet = cache.get( 'tweet' )

if tweet:
return {"tweet": tweet}

tweet = twitter.Api().GetUserTimeline( settings.TWITTER_USER,
count=3 )
tweet.date = datetime.datetime(*(time.strptime( tweet.created_at,
"%a %b %d %H:%M:%S + %Y" )[0:6]))
cache.set( 'tweet', tweet, settings.TWITTER_TIMEOUT )

return {"tweet": tweet}

This results in the following error:
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'created_at'

The twitter api let me call a human readable date in the template
using relative_created_at. Unfortunately the output is in English.

Any idea how i get an easy readable date?

The output is now:
Fri Oct 30 10:18:53 + 2009

Or:
about 6 days ago
When i use relative_created_at
