Fix "build_status_attr.py" in "discursive-graph-data" branch #22

Closed hadoopjax closed 7 years ago

hadoopjax commented 7 years ago

This issue pertains to the discursive-graph-data branch

build_status_attr.py is currently a mess. It needs to return the entire Tweet object from Tweepy (so, include "entities"). The returned object will contain important information about a given Tweet (status) that we can use for analysis.

Currently, it throws TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable

If you would like to work on this issue and need help setting up access to the Elasticsearch resource for your local testing please contact @nick on slack. This is a relatively painless process as long as you have an AWS account. Conversely, if you want to test disconnected from AWS resources, you can do so by commenting-out any of the AWS or Elasticsearch affiliated references (you'll still need Twitter, though).
