get_list = twitter.get_direct_messages()
|
|
#Returns All Twitter DM information which is a lot in a list format
|
|
|
|
dm_dict = get_list[0]
|
|
#Sets get_list to a dictionary, the number in the list is the direct message retrieved
|
|
#That means that 0 is the most recent and n-1 is the last DM revieved.
|
|
#You can cycle through all the numbers and it will return the text and the sender id of each
|
|
|
|
print dm_dict['text']
|
|
#Gets the text from the dictionary
|
|
|
|
print dm_dict['sender']['id']
|
|
#Gets the ID of the sender
