/birdy

Twitter integration with Linux desktop notifications

Primary LanguageRubyMIT LicenseMIT

Usage

  1. Run birdy and enter your Twitter credentials.
  2. Set your system to run /usr/bin/birdy on startup.

Issues

  • If the json gem cannot build ‘mkmf (LoadError)’ try:
    sudo apt-get install ruby1.8-dev
  • Currently birdy is not compatible with Ruby 1.9. The long story is that json is bundled with 1.9 but twitter4r requires the gem to be installed.
