Node Twitter

Node twitter is an effort to rewrite some of Twitter 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 are required to have Node.js and MongoDB installed if you'd like to run the app locally.

• 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: ''
    }
  }
};
