twitter-kv

key-value store over twitter user feeds

background

Sometimes you'd like to store a simple small (key, value) mapping. Like, say, an IPFS hash. It'd be nice if you could use a service that's already running and is highly available.

No access tokens required!

example

var resolve = require('twitter-kv')

resolve('noffle', 'test', function (err, value) {
  if (err) return console.log(err)

  console.log('value:', value)
})

This will look for a recent tweet in my timeline of the format

key = value

If it finds it -- let's say I have a tweet that says foo = bar -- I can expect the following output

value: bar

api

var resolve = require('twitter-kv')

resolve(user, key, cb)

Queries the twitter user feed for user, looking for an entry of the form key = value. Calls cb(err, value) with the most recent value for key. Expect key to be null if no value was found.

install

With npm installed, run

$ npm install twitter-kv
