I created this app to experiment with Twilio SMS.

Set Up

You will need a Twilio developer account to use this application. Sign up here.

  1. fork and clone this repo
  2. bundle install
  3. rails db:{create,migrate}
  4. bundle exec figaro install
  • In application.yml add the following values: TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID, TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN, RECIPIENT_PHONE_NUMBER (set this as your number)
  1. In the TwilioService, set the from variable to be your Twilio number

Feature Requests

  • TwilioService::send_text is slow (sleep(5) was intentionally added to simulate an expensive operation). We should move this to a background job.
