TwitterDelete is a small application to delete your old, unpopular tweets and likes.

• Delete, unlike and unretweet tweets
• Keep tweets based on age and tweeks based on retweet or favourite count
• Delete tweets no longer exposed by Twitter API from a downloaded Twitter archive file

To setup locally run:

git clone https://github.com/mikemcquaid/TwitterDelete
cd TwitterDelete
bundle install

Get the Twitter API variables from https://apps.twitter.com and add the following variables to a .env file in the TwitterDelete folder:

TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY=...
TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET=...
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN=...
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET=...

Now run TwitterDelete:

./twitter_delete.rb --user TwitterUsername

Works for deleting relevant tweet and likes. I've deleted my old tweets and am not actively working on this but I will accept pull requests.
