@100Fourty

A small app to automate a twitter account, done just for fun. This 'bot' replies back to mentions with the day's headline show at a given concert venue provided in the tweet aimed at it.

It's not deployed yet, but feel free to clone/download the repo, and see how it works by doing this:

  • Get keys and credentials from Twitter and Songkick. Check out .env.example for what you need.
  • Replace @100Fourty in the code with your account's handle.
  • install dependencies listed in package.json
  • Use "npm/yarn run dev" from the cli to get things running.

To get replies back from the bot to see who's playing at your favorite place, mention your account's handle in a tweet and wrap *'s around the word 'venue' and the actual venue name, like this:

  • Hey, @twitterName *venue 9:30 Club *

Tools used include:

  • Node/Express
  • Songkick API for concert information
  • Axios for requests to Songkick
  • Twit library for the Twitter API.
