# Real time Twitter Banner
Inspired by - [Devesh](https://github.com/Deveshb15/real-twitter-banner)
## How to setup for your Twitter
Just fill in your API keys which you'll need to apply for a [Twitter developer account](https://developer.twitter.com/en/apply-for-access). It usually get's approved within 5 minutes.
```
const TWITTER_HANDLE = 'Deveshb15'
const twitterClient = new client.TwitterClient({
apiKey: "YOUR CONSUMER API KEY"
apiSecret: "YOUR CONSUMER API SECRET"
accessToken: "YOUR ACCESS TOKEN"
accessTokenSecret: "YOUR ACCESS TOKEN SECRET"
});
```
Lastly, change the default banner `1500x500.png`. Make sure it's a `png` (as in the mimetype, not just the file extension).
## Run the script
Install dependencies:
```
npm install
```
Start the app:
```
node index.js
```
or
```
npm start
```
## How the script works
Summary:
1. Fetch your recent 3 followers using Twitter API. (Rate limit: 180 requests per 15 mins)
2. Download the profile image of the recent 3 followers.
3. Use Jimp to add it on banner
4. Update your profile banner using Twitter API. (Rate limit: 30 requests per 15 mins)
The delay between follow and banner update is between 6s to 15s.
