Let Statie & Travis publish Tweets for your new posts fo you.

Install

Configure

Get Twitter Tokens

• Go to https://apps.twitter.com/app/new
• Login under account you want to publish in and create new Application
• Then go to "Keys and Access Tokens"
• In the bottom click to "Create my access token"

Now the secret part, be careful about your keys!

• Add config/config.local.yml to .gitignore

• Copy these 4 hashes you see in the page to config/config.local.yml

• Import this file in statie.yml under the package config, so it has bigger priority and you can test it locally

• Add tweet: "some tweet" to headline of your post to test it
• Run vendor/bin/publish-new-tweet and check your Twitter account

Is it there? Good, it works and only few steps remain to fully automate this :)

Setup Travis Online

Now we only put that logic on Travis and we're done.

• Open Travis for your repository, e.g. https://travis-ci.org/TomasVotruba/tomasvotruba.cz
• Got to More options => Settings
• In Environment Variables add 4 variables with they values. They are hidden by default, so don't worry:
  • TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY
  • TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET
  • TWITTER_OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN
  • TWITTER_OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET
• Then setup cron, so posts are being published even if you don't write and have a break.
• Go to Cron Jobs → master branch → Daily → Always run → Add

That its!

• And let .travis.yml know, that he should publish it

Now you can quit Twitter if you want and you posts will be still there :)
