The purpose of the application is to point out the information overload we experience every day.
Check out the app at: waytoofast.oemel09.de
This application shows random real-time tweets from twitter.com
and random videos and pictures from pexels.com.
If sound is enabled the app plays random sounds from freesound.org.
To deploy the application by yourself you need to provide a bearer-token of your twitter developer account
and an API-key for pexels as well as for freesound.
Create a config.json file like the example-config.json found in this repository.
Configuration is done via the following environment variables:
| Key | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PORT | 61113 | The port where the app will run |
| PATH_PREFIX | - | Subdirectory where the app will be deployed |
| TEMPLATES_DIR | - | Path to the templates directory |
| STATIC_ASSETS_DIR | - | Path to the static assets (css, js) |
| CONFIG_FILE | - | Path to the json config file |
To build the app run go install
TEMPLATES_DIR=/path/to/templates \
STATIC_ASSETS_DIR=/path/to/assets \
CONFIG_FILE/path/to/config.json \
waytoofast
If the app will be available at a subdirectory, set the PATH_PREFIX environment variable
and set the PATH_PREFIX constant in the index.js file.
