Twitter Haiku Bot (@MakeBadHaiku)
BadHaikuBot is twitter bot that transforms a user specified tweet into a BAD haiku. The bot utilizes Tweepy, a python library used to access the Twitter API and another python library [SyllaPy] to analyze the syllables of each word. Once each word of the tweet is analyzed, the bot creates a Haiku following the rules of haiku (Proper sentence structure is not followed since random words are chosen based on occurence and how many syllables are required)
- A Haiku must consist of 3 lines
- First line of a haiku has 5 syllables, second line has 7 syllables, third line has 5 syllables
- Whole poem must contain 17 syllables
- On twitter, find a tweet that you would like to transform into a haiku
(Make sure that the tweet has more than 5 non-duplicate words) - Click the Retweet button
- Then select Quote Retweet
