Problemas de integração com API Twitter x Python

[wesleyagenda]

Boa tarde galera!,

Estou com problemas de integração da API do Twitter com minha aplicação do Python. Abaixo encaminho meu código e o error.

Código:

import urllib.request

import time

import json

import socket

import ssl

def send_to_twitter():

msg = ("I am a message that will be sent to twitter")

password_manager = urllib.request.HTTPPasswordMgr()

password_manager.add_password("Twitter API","http://twitter.com/statuses","usuario","senha")

http_handler = urllib.request.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(password_manager)

page_opener = urllib.request.build_opener(http_handler)

urllib.request.install_opener(page_opener)

params = urllib.parse.urlencode({'status':msg})

resp = urllib.request.urlopen("http://twitter.com/statuses/update.json",params)

resp.read()

def get_price():

page = urllib.request.urlopen("http://beans-r-us.appspot.com/prices.html")

text = page.read().decode("utf8")

where = text.find('>$')

start_of_price = where + 2

end_of_price = start_of_price + 4

return float(text[start_of_price:end_of_price])

price_now = input("Do you want to see the price now (y/n)?")

if price_now == "y":

#print (get_price())

send_to_twitter()

else:

price = 99.99

while price >4.74:

time.sleep(900)

price = get_price()

#print ("BUY!")

send_to_twitter()

Error:

Do you want to see the price now (y/n)?y

Na linha 11 a função pede mais um argumento passwd
