How to use the package in your project

There is two class :

environ["DATABASE_HOST"] = 'localhost'
environ["DATABASE_USER"] = 'tweet_archiveur_user'
environ["DATABASE_PASS"] = '1234leximpact'
environ["DATABASE_NAME"] = 'tweet_archiveur'

scrapper = Scrapper()
df_users = scrapper.get_users_accounts('../tests/sample-users.csv')
users_id = df_users.twitter_id.tolist()
database = Database()
database.create_tables_if_not_exist()
