Reddit-to-Twitter

A JavaScript tool to mirror posts from a subreddit to a Twitter account.

About

This is a personal project cobbled together to expand my understanding of JavaScript promises. It's ugly, but it works.

Usage

1. You'll need a Twitter API key and a Reddit account or API key
   • (see the "Setting Up Snoowrap" section of this article for more info on the latter).
2. Set up the bot
   • Clone the repo
   • Run yarn install --production
   • Copy .env.example to .env and fill out the details.
3. Set up a cron job to run "node bot.js" however often you want the bot to post on Twitter.
   • Ex: 0,30 * * * * /usr/bin/node /home/ralph/rtt/bot.js > /dev/null 2>&1 to run the bot twice an hour

This is far from the best/cleanest implementation of this concept, so I'd be very grateful for any issues/pull requests.

This project follows the AirBNB style guide, please ensure yarn test completes successfully before creating a pull request.
