sphero-twitter

Control your smart Robots with twitter.

Installation

$ npm install ollie-twitter

You need to get your Twitter API keys. (Guide to get them) After you get all the 4 keys, copy-n-paste them in twitter.credit file (create it if it doesn't exist) in JSON like this:

{
    "conKey": "",
    "conSec": "", 
    "accKey": "", 
    "accSec": ""
 }

If you are controlling an Ollie or a BB-8, and if you want to use without sudo, then follow this link.

You can change which hashtag sphero is listening by passing ´´´.start(str)´´´ method of sphero-twitter a different hashtag in app.js file.

Usage

$ node app.js

Syntax

The language I used in parsing tweets is tiLang, look at there for syntax.
