Twitter_crawler

This should (if finished) fetch your twitter friends (people you follow) to the 6th degree.

Currently it's just the first thing I ever wrote in erlang, and it just a simple Twitter API you can play with.

Installation

I'm using the awesome rebar so just type this:

rebar get-deps
rebar compile

and then just run the script

./twitter.erl

Twitter API Key

For this to work you need to register an App and get an API key, https://apps.twitter.com/

Then create a twitter.secret JSON file that looks like this:

{
    "APIKey": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    "APISecret": "YOUR_API_SECRET"
}
