How I Built a Serverless AWS Lambda Twitter Bot in NodeJS in a Single Day
The steps I took, some insight, and what you can do to have one too.
Have you ever wanted to create a Twitter Bot? It’s been on my list of things to do for quite some time, and I’ve never really had a good way to do it. Until today.
I’ve always thought about making some sort of bot, and I always appreciate getting new quotes to ponder, so it was time to just sit down and do it. I just felt the need to finish a project and get something working.
I’ve been using Twitter for quite some time now. I use it to get daily news updates. I get updates about what’s going on before the news. Really it’s a good resource. Not to continue to gloat, but I think it’s a useful product.
I also have been using IFTTT for quite some time. It’s another useful platform that I don’t use as much as I can but thought of while working on this — it’s just a trigger. It’s great for little if-else scripting statements and can add a lot of functionality to business workflows and even managing your phone operations.
It’s just a cloud trigger.
