bkkcsirip

This is a rather rudimentary script that periodically checks the (not actually public) BKK notice API and posts about irregularities on Twitter. See it in action on the @bkkcsirip Twitter account.

Usage

The application requires a Redis instance so that it can determine which of the notices is new or changed. The following environment variables are used for configuration:

• BKKCSIRIP_TWITTER_APP_KEY
• BKKCSIRIP_TWITTER_APP_SECRET
• BKKCSIRIP_TWITTER_USER_KEY
• BKKCSIRIP_TWITTER_USER_SECRET
• BKKCSIRIP_REDIS_URL (optional): the URL for the Redis instance to use (default: redis://localhost:6379/0)
• BKKCSIRIP_DATE_LOCALE (optional): override the date locale used in the tweets
• BKKCSIRIP_CHECK_INTERVAL (optional): the amount of time to wait between checks, in seconds (default: 60)
