Repo for project 1 in INFO490 at UIUC. This project makes it possible to easily spread some positive tweets to your friends. It uses the Intel Galileo Gen 2 together with a color sensor. The color sensor detects a color of an object, the server then generates a random tweet within the associated feeling for that color, and after pressing the connected button the tweet is sent.
First you have to create a Twitter app that allows the app to post tweets and read the authenticated users friends list. Go to apps.twitter.com and follow the instructions.
When you have an Twitter app, create the json-file /secret/twitterkeys.json with the following structure:
{
"consumerKey": "Your consumerkey from Twitter",
"consumerSecret": "Your consumersecret from Twitter",
"accessToken": "",
"accessTokenSecret": ""
}First make all the wiring needed, see positweet.kspri.se
When the wiring is done, run /arduino/theBoxColorSensor.ino from the Arduino IDE.
Edit line 40 to the IP of your board:
var callbackUrl = "http://YOUR.IP"SSH to your Galileo and run with:
node app.jsGo to http://THE.BOARD.IP:2222
The repo comes with a version that don't require a Intel Galileo. You can run this app on your computer. Instead of generating tweets from objects infront of a color sensor, a color picker is shown in the web interface for manual interaction.
Go to /web/js/controllers/StartCtrl.js and make this edit:
this.colorPicker = true;Run app with:
node app_withoutboard.jsA lot of dependencies, checkout package.json and bower.json
