Get similar error. Password has no special characters - so i get a str eror
rather than a unicode

Traceback (most recent call last):

I'm getting the same issue with no special characters in the password.

The root cause for this turns out to be a Twitter change. The JSON data
returned for GetFriends used to only be a list, but now it appears other
data elements are returned.

I've tweaked how the NewFromJsonDict() method for User works so that it now
requests the 'users' item from the base JSON returned and then iterating
over that.

Yeah, I got the same with the latest download. I'm on Ubuntu 12.04. See
below.

I believe the issue is that this endpoint has been renamed to sample.json
AND is part of the streaming API. If I change the endpoint in the code and
pass in base_url to my constructor it moves along, but it is not configured
(or cannot handle, I don't yet know) to handle streaming.

I would just use a different example and the author should probably just
deprecate this call or add additional info on how to use it.

statuses = api.GetPublicTimeline()

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/python_twitter-0.8.2-py2.7.egg/twitter.py",

GetPublicTimeline() is deprecated in version 1.1 of the Twitter API

your getting this error because that is how Twitter chose to respond to a
now-deprecated call.

There is no longer any way, except using search, to get what used to be the
Public Timeline

[bear]

no, the user's id or name - then twitter will return everything that matches... but only a sample of that stream.

I had code that worked perfectly until yesterday. Now
tweeter.GetUserTimeline(settings.TWITTER_USER) is throwing this error.

I just tested the latest from github with a known good set of credentials
and

api.GetUserTimeline(foo)

works for me - can you provide more info about what version this is and
what version of Python
