xristocodos / twittersplitter Goto Github PK

Okay, so a few things:

1. GFY files are Readmes that assume the user is owed nothing since this ish is free.99

2. i'm not doing that dumb ms word thing with alternating indentation demarkers

3. purpose:
  1. refresher on ruby project (non-web) setup, web setup later
  2. refresher on managing API keys w/o accidental commit in plaintext

4. order of operations/separation of concerns:
  1. start ruby project
    1. establish personal 'gemssentials'
      1. bundle install
      2. git add Gemfile.lock
      3. testing suite (rspec?)
    2. setup gems/start project
  2. setup twitter
    1. setup twitter gem
    2. setup twitter keyhandling
      1. is there a way to manage multiple keys?
    3. user input time!
      1. get twitter handles
      2. get "category" for each twitter
        3. maybe take lists from main account and auto-sort?
    4. find out twitter api capabilities with regards to:
      1. pulling down followers
      2. following and unfollowing accounts
        NOTE: don't unfollow until already following on new account
    5. figure out some kind of crude menu-driven UI in ruby, like Pine
  3. keep using it until it does what you want, the way you want
  4. if you're just now thinking about TDD, you're too late. go back to #1.

     With Love,
