Great, let's continue!\n\n### Installing\n\n#### Without docker\n\n1. Pull the application and switch to the correct branch (mostly `develop`, or `master` if you want to deploy)\n2. Get all dependencies by using `yarn`\n3. Copy the config.example.json file and enter your twitter app credentials.\n4. Run `yarn start` to trigger the script. (Better set up a cronjob that does it every x minutes)\n\n#### With docker\n\n1. Create a config.json (copy the config.example.json first and add your twitter app credentials).\n2. Build an image from the Dockerfile and start a container based on it\n\n## Deployment\n\nDeployment works similar to installation. Just go for `master` instead of `develop`.\n\n## Possible errors and there solutions\n\nNone known by now\n\n## Built With\n\n* [NodeJS and Yarn](https://nodejs.org/) - Backend javascript and dependency\nmanagement\n* [Twit](https://github.com/ttezel/twit) - Great (promise-based) Twitter API\n\n## Versioning\n\nWe use [SemVer](http://semver.org/) for versioning. For the versions available, take a look in [our repository](https://github.com/manniL/jexam-updates).\n\n## Contribution\n\nContributions are welcome at any time! Just make sure that you follow the [JS Standard Style](https://standardjs.com/rules.html) and common good practices (like DRY) when contributing.\nIf you see parts of the code that don't follow those rules, you are free to submit a PR to fix that!\n\n## Authors\n\n* **Alexander Lichter** - *Main work on the project* - [Website](http://developmint.de) - [BitBucket](https://bitbucket.org/manniL/) - [Github](https://github.com/manniL) - [StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/users/3975480/mannil)\n\nSee also the [list of contributors](https://github.com/manniL/jexam-updates/contributors) who participated in this project.\n\n## License\n\nSee [LICENSE file](https://github.com/manniL/jexam-updates/blob/master/LICENSE)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthealexlichter%2Fjexam-updates","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fthealexlichter%2Fjexam-updates","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthealexlichter%2Fjexam-updates/lists"}
