mc-providers 0.2.4

Search Providers package for Mediacloud

Media Cloud Providers Library

A package of search providers for Media Cloud, wrapping up interfaces for different social media platform.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION- Probably won't get a huge amount of attention for a little bit, but I'm putting this up now since I've done this extraction already.

Install with pip (pip install .) and the install.sh script.

Requires environment variables set for various interfaces to work correctly.

Make sure pip install flit twine so you can build and deploy to PyPI.

1. Bump the version number in pyproject.toml
2. Run flit build to create an installation package
3. Run twine upload --repository-url https://test.pypi.org/legacy/ dist/* to upload it to PyPI's test platform
4. Run twine upload dist/* to upload it to PyPI
