Node Twitter

Node twitter is an effort to rewrite some of Twitters functionality using modern javascript based toolchain. It was mostly an effort to learn Node.js and trying to reverse engineer some of twitter's feature.

Prerequisites

You would require Node, NPM and MongoDB installed:

• Node.js
• Mongodb

The configuration is in config/config.js. Please create your own github application Github Developer Settings and replace the token and keys.

var path = require('path'),
    rootPath = path.normalize(__dirname + '/..');
module.exports = {
  production: {
    db: '',
    root: rootPath,
    app: {
      name: 'Node Twitter'
    },
    github: {
      clientID: '',
      clientSecret: '',
      callbackURL: ''
    }
  }
};
