Due to Twitter API changes this code no longer works and will not be updated
A Twitter bot that takes a query and responds with either a recipe from the National Library of Australia's Trove digitised newspaper archive, or a message saying nothing can be found.
Uses webshot, an awesome package that utilises Phantomjs to enable automated screenshots of websites. This can be a bit tricky to get right - on your own machine it should work pretty easily, but if you use Docker it won't work if you let webshot node package install Phantom for you. See Dockerfile_example - you'll end up with a pretty big file, but it will work.
- nodejs
- Phantomjs
- random-js
- request
- twit
- webshot
The easiest way to install is to install Docker and use the example Dockerfile.
- Install Docker
- Copy in your own API keys to the Dockerfile
touch lastId.txtin the directory where you have saved recipes.js.- Build your docker image and run it
