Realtime GitHub Readme Tweets

ยท

2 min read

Hey now you can integrate your tweets into github readme in realtime. I have created a api which will fetch your tweets and give you a response in picture format. A tweet looks like this:

Let's see how to integrate this into your readme.

  1. visit tweeco.pushkaryadav.in

  2. Enter your twitter username

    here you have 2 choices. You can either enter your Twitter username or you can enter a specific tweet URL.

    • Tweet username will always return the latest tweet in svg rendered form

    • Tweet URL will return a specific tweet in svg rendered form

  1. Copy the markdown code and paste it in your readme file

  2. Costumization

You can customize tweets with URL parameters. Here are some:

Modify the URL with these parameters and you will get a customized tweet.

Property CodeWork
?text=ffftext color
?width=700width of image rendered
?border=000border color
?bg=333background color
?title=F5D76Etitle color
?icon=F5D76Etwitter icon color

  • Some Tips:

    • Do not use # in color code. Use F5D76E instead of #F5D76E

    • For colors you can refer to COLPIC or any color code website.

    • PRO TIP ๐Ÿ˜Ž: You can also use this api in your website. Just use the api url in your img tag.

  1. Commit and Done.

    This is how my GitHub looks after adding this tweet integration:
