Install from PyPi using pip, a package manager for Python.
pip install twilio
Don't have pip installed? Try installing it, by running this from the command line:
$ curl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | python
Or, you can download the source code
(ZIP) for twilio-python
, and then run:
python setup.py install
You may need to run the above commands with sudo
.
Getting started with the Twilio API couldn't be easier. Create a
TwilioRestClient
and you're ready to go.
The TwilioRestClient
needs your Twilio credentials. You can either pass these
directly to the constructor (see the code below) or via environment variables.
from twilio.rest import TwilioRestClient
account = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
token = "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY"
client = TwilioRestClient(account, token)
