gulp-twitter

gulp-twitter

Twitter plugin for gulp 3.

Usage

First, install gulp-twitter as a development dependency:

npm install --save-dev gulp-twitter

Then, add it to your gulpfile.js:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var twitter = require('gulp-twitter');

// Construct `oauth` config.
var oauth = {
    consumerKey: process.env.CONSUMER_KEY,
    consumerSecret: process.env.CONSUMER_SECRET,
    accessToken: process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN,
    accessTokenSecret: process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET
};

gulp.task('tweetie', function () {
    gulp.src('package.json')
        .pipe(twitter(oauth, 'Watch me while I tweet this.'))
});

Options twitter(oauth, message)

oauth

Type: Object Default: {}

OAuth credentials, i.e.

{
    "consumerKey": "CONSUMER_KEY",
    "consumerSecret": "CONSUMER_SECRET",
    "accessToken": "ACCESS_TOKEN",
    "accessTokenSecret": "ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET"
}

Create a Twitter App and get OAuth credentials (if you haven’t already). Be careful, these tokens are like passwords so you should guard them carefully. For usage with Travis CI see the documentation on encryption keys.

message

Type: String or Function Default: ''

If you pass a Function this will be passed a gulp-util.File Object (see https://github.com/wearefractal/gulp-util/#new-fileobj) and should return a String, e.g. function (file) {return 'gulp-tweeting ' + file.relative;}.
