Tweet Scheduler

A Node.js app with a React frontend to schedule and post tweets using X's API.

Setup

1. Clone the repo: git clone <repo-url>
2. Install backend dependencies: npm install
3. Install frontend dependencies: cd client && npm install
4. Set up MongoDB and Redis locally or via cloud services.
5. Create a .env file (see above).
6. Get X API credentials from https://developer.twitter.com/.

Running Locally

1. Start MongoDB: mongod
2. Start Redis: redis-server
3. Run backend: npm start
4. Run worker: npm run worker
5. Run frontend: cd client && npm start

API Endpoints

• GET /auth/twitter: Start OAuth 2.0 flow
• GET /auth/twitter/callback: Handle OAuth callback
• POST /api/schedule-tweet: Schedule a tweet
• GET /api/scheduled-tweets: List pending tweets
• DELETE /api/scheduled-tweet/:id: Delete a tweet

Deployment

• Use Docker for backend/worker.
• Deploy frontend separately (e.g., Vercel).
• Store tokens securely in a database, not .env.

Notes

• Replace your-static-verifier with a secure OAuth 2.0 code verifier.
• Test rate limits with twitter-api-v2 retry logic.
