Twitter -> GroupMe

Deploy

This script takes tweets and posts them in a GroupMe chat. You will need a GroupMe bot and also a Twitter app. There are several config variables you will need to set.

To get the basic experience working:

  • ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET, CONSUMER_KEY, and CONSUMER_SECRET are all from your Twitter App.
  • BOT_ID is your GroupMe Bot.
  • CALLBACK is the url of your heroku app.
  • FOLLOWING is the Twitter id's of the users you want to follow.
  • PRIVATE_TWITTER is the username of the twitter account you want to follow

To get more advanced and add more users, you are going to have to manually define this code block in tweetgroup.js:

if(event.user.screen_name == "TWITTER_USERNAME") {
	sendMessage(parseMessage(event), process.env.BOT_ID2);
} else if(event.user.screen_name == "TWITTER_USERNAME2") {
	sendMessage(parseMessage(event), process.env.BOT_ID3);
} else if(event.user.screen_name == process.env.PRIVATE_TWITTER) {
	sendMessage(parseMessage(event), process.env.BOT_ID);
}
