Archiving my tweets in my garden with orger

I stopped using Twitter with any regularity a long time back now. I was never a big user of it. But I did for a while. Out of interest, I'm going to get my archive of old tweets and put them into my digital garden for posterity. I can use [[orger]] for this.

• Install orger
• Install HPI
• Setup HPI for Twitter - https://github.com/karlicoss/HPI/blob/master/doc/SETUP.org#twitter
  • Need to download Twitter archive - https://help.twitter.com/en/managing-your-account/how-to-download-your-twitter-archive
    • Now I have to wait until they notify me about it being ready. How long does that take? Quite a while I guess. Maybe I come back to this tomorrow.

Archive is ready now (I think it was ready somepoint yesterday, so let's say it took about a day to be produced).

• Place my twitter-2021-03-04-*.zip file in ~/Data/twitter-archives/.

• Add the details to ~/.config/my/my/config/__init__.py

• OK, that's HPI config done. Now use it with orger.

• Copy https://github.com/karlicoss/orger/blob/master/modules/twitter.py

• import my.twitter.all -> import my.twitter.archive

• python3 twitter.py

  And it works!
