This application does not work at all #332

Open delphinus334 opened 2 years ago

delphinus334 commented 2 years ago

Ubuntu 22.04 Made several attempts to install the application but it doesn't work as it should, way too much hassle. Switched to twitter on web browser. Disappointing application. Not worth the trouble.

Sudo pip3 install rainbowstream

~$Rainbowstream

You are running latest version (1.6.0) We have connection problem with twitter REST API right now :( Invalid or expired token (with al valid token its does not work either)

~$ sudo rainbowstream Your ~/.rainbow_config.json is messed up:

[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/root/.rainbow_config.json'

sudo rainbowstream You are running latest version (1.6.0) We have connection problem with twitter REST API right now :( Rate limit exceeded

Same with ENV installation. Does not work either.

Uninstalled the package. Not worth the trouble.

lol @ running install as root user.

Go have a look here and follow the installation instructions carefully. It certainly does work and as someone above mentioned, you don't run the thing as root user. https://pypi.org/project/rainbowstream/

Also go here: https://docs.python-guide.org/dev/virtualenvs/ to understand how to install Pipenv & Virtual Environments. Don't give up so quickly. Good luck.
