Use at your own risk. Deleting posts is irreversible. \n\n\n## Getting Started\n\n### Twitter \n\n1. Sign up and create a project on the [Twitter Developer Portal](https://developer.twitter.com/)\n1. Create a new Project and App (select any environment). **Make sure to save your API keys!**\n1. Set up 'User authentication settings'\n    * App Permissions: Read and Write\n    * Type of App: Confidential \n    * Enter any Callback URI and Website URL (e.g. this Github repo). *We're not using this.*\n    * No need to save Client Id \u0026 Secret. *We're not using this.*\n1. Go to your 'Keys and Tokens' \u003e Generate Access Token \u0026 Secret\n1. go to Keys and tokens to (re-)generate Access Token and Secret. **Make sure to save these keys!**\n1. Make sure that after generation your Access Token \u0026 Secret are created with read and write permissions \n1. Save the keys to your `.env` file\n\n**NOTE:** The App runs on the Twitter account that you've used to create the developer account \u0026 API keys. \n\n### Reddit\n\n1. Create an App on [Reddit App Preferences](https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps)\n1. Select 'script' as the type of app and use any `redirect uri` (e.g. this Github repo). *We're not using this.*\n1. Create App\n1. Save the keys to your `.env` file.\n    * `REDDIT_CLIENT_ID` is just below your App name and `personal use script`\n    * `REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET` is the created secret\n1. Add your personal credentials to your `.env` file \n    * `REDDIT_USERNAME` is your Reddit username\n    * `REDDIT_PASSWORD` is your Reddit password\n\n\u003e **NOTE**\n\u003e 🚨 MAKE SURE TO NEVER SUBMIT YOUR `.env` OR ANY CREDENTIALS TO GITHUB. \n\n\n### Configure \n\nYour `.env` should be placed in the root of this project and contain the following keys depending on which platforms you'd like to run.\n\n```\nTWITTER_API_KEY=''\nTWITTER_API_SECRET=''\nTWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN=''\nTWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET=''\n```\n\n```\nREDDIT_CLIENT_ID=''\nREDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET=''\nREDDIT_USERNAME=''\nREDDIT_PASSWORD=''\n```\n\n### Settings\n\nThe root of this project contains a [settings file](./settings.json) to configure each provider.\n\n### Manual run\n\nYou can run a purge manually using the following command.\n\n```\nyarn start\n```\n\n### Cron Job\n\nThe cron job in `.github/workflows` will automatically run on daily basis. Make sure to configure [repository secrets](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/encrypted-secrets#creating-encrypted-secrets-for-a-repository) with the same variables as your `.env` file.\n\n\n### Archive \n\n**CURRENTLY NOT SUPPORTED** \n\nThe Twitter API only returns the last 3200 tweets. This is likely insufficient for most accounts. In order to delete historical tweets, you need to [download an archive of your data](https://twitter.com/settings/download_your_data).\n\nThis might take up to 24 hours. Once you have your data, add it to the root of this project with the name `archive.zip`.\n\n\u003e **Note**\n\u003e 🚨 Make sure you rename your archive to `archive.zip` or exclude it in `.gitignore`.\n\nYou can run a full archive purge using the following command.\n\n```\nyarn start:archive\n```","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwslyvh%2Fautodelete-me","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fwslyvh%2Fautodelete-me","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwslyvh%2Fautodelete-me/lists"}
