Building

Fork and clone the repository. Then, install dependencies with

npm install
npm install gulp -g

Part of the build process involves running integration tests against Twilio. In order to run these, you will need a Twilio account and you will need to set the following environment variables:

• ACCOUNT_SID
• SIGNING_KEY_SID
• SIGNING_KEY_SECRET
• CONFIGURATION_PROFILE_SID

Alternatively, you can skip the integration tests by setting SKIP_INTEGRATION to "true". Then, run

gulp

The builds and docs will be placed in the dist/ directory.
