Description: # twarc-csv
        
        This module adds CSV Export for Tweets to `twarc`.
        
        Make sure twarc is installed and configured:
        
        ```
        pip install twarc
        twarc2 configure
        ```
        
        Install this plugin:
        
        ```
        pip install twarc-csv
        ```
        
        A new `csv` command will be available in twarc. If you have collected some
        tweets in a file `tweets.jsonl` you can now convert them to CSV
        
        ```
        twarc2 search --limit 500 "blacklivesmatter" tweets.jsonl # collect some tweets
        twarc2 csv tweets.jsonl tweets.csv # convert to CSV
        ```
        
        ## Issues with Twitter Data in CSV
        
        CSV isn't the best choice for storing twitter data. Always keep the
        original API responses, and perform feature extraction on json objects.
        
        This export script is intended for convenience, for importing samples of data into other tools. The work in progress script does not expose any customizations or configuration yet, there are many ways to format a CSV of tweets, and this is just one way.
