Most of the time we share a link in our Gtalk status, so do we tweet the same, would it not be fun and easy to do the same from CLI?!

After Finding invisible mates I tried a simple python script again to do me a neat job of twitting and setting the same as by gamil status.

import sys
import warnings
from xmpp import *
import urllib

# Don you dare warn me!
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore") 

#### EDIT THE BELOW ####
GUSERNAME = "hemanth.hm"
GPASSWORD = "YOU_KNOW_IT"
RESOURCE = "gmail.com"

TUSER="hemanth_hm"
TPASS="DON_YOU_KNOW?"

class Gtweet:
    def __init__(self, stats=None):
        self.stats = stats
    def gstat(self):
        cl=Client(server='gmail.com',debug=[])
        if not cl.connect(server=('talk.google.com',5222)):
            raise IOError('Can not connect to server.')
        if not cl.auth(GUSERNAME, GPASSWORD, RESOURCE):
            raise IOError('Can not auth with server.')
        cl.send(Iq('set','google:shared-status', payload=[
                Node('show',payload=['status']),
                Node('status',payload=[self.stats])
        ]))
        cl.disconnect()
    
    def twit(self):
        try:
            data = urllib.urlencode({"status" :self.stats})
            res = urllib.urlopen("http://%s:%[email protected]/statuses/update.xml"\
                              % (TUSER,TPASS),data)
        except Exception, why:
            print str(why)

def main():
    status = raw_input("Type in your status: ")
    gt = Gtweet(status)
    gt.twit()
    gt.gstat()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
