Script en Python para escribir un tweet con imagen en 2024

Este script utiliza la versión 2 de la API de Twitter para publicar el tweet y la versión 1 de la API para subir previamente las imágenes. Las imágenes se localizan en la misma carpeta del script con la extensión .jpg. Además, comprueba si la carpeta «archives» y si no la crea para poder archivar la imagen una vez publicada.

# I add the screenshot in the same directory as the code and add only one image. Since it is a screenshot taken using windows Snip, it is in png

# get the file extension. This would be png by default but I was experimenting with different images. Will update this if required

# Move the image to archives folder and rename it as per the date it was uploaded. I am only adding one post per day so this makes more sense
