# gotwit

A library for creating twitter bots.

## Getting Started

Copy the files from `template/` to a new project.

Rename `secret.example.json` to `secrets.json` and fill in the tokens with your bot's API tokens.

## Running on Heroku

Install Godep:

```

$ go get github.com/tools/godep

```

Freeze the dependencies:

```

$ godep save

```

Add a `Procfile` containing the following:

```

worker: 

```

Commit everything:

```

$ git init

$ git add .

$ git commit -m "Initial commit."

```

Now you're ready to push to Heroku.

Create a Heroku instance:

```

$ heroku create -b https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-go.git 

```

Set up the environment:

```

$ heroku config:set \

    GOTWIT_CONSUMER_KEY= \

    GOTWIT_CONSUMER_SECRET= \

    GOTWIT_ACCESS_TOKEN= \

    GOTWIT_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET=

```

Now you're ready to go. Push it live:

```

$ git push heroku master

```
