A Twitter bot that ingests the ProPublica campfin API and merges it with the Dango emoji API to produce a wonderful, Venmo-like Twitter feed of payment information.
Runs on the AWS Lambda infrastructure. It is kinda cool.
To get this working, you need an AWS account, a Twitter account, and a ProPublica Campaign Finance API key.
$ cp deploy.env.template deploy.env
$ cp deploy.env .envAnd fill out both of those envs with your keys.
This is designed to work with node-lambda, so kick the tires with:
$ node-lambda runAnd deploy with
$ node-lambda deploy -t 60 -o arn:aws:iam::IAM_ID:role/IAM_ROLE -f deploy.env -r us-east-1
