Dead-simple wrapper to get Chatterbot running in Heroku in as little as 5 minutes

• Click the Fork button here https://github.com/staringispolite/heroku-twitter-bot
• git clone to your local machine

https://www.twitter.com

• https://apps.twitter.com/
• Enter the into to create a new app
• Run bundle install to install dependencies
• In the top level of the new bot repo, type chatterbot-register and follow the directions on-screen to OAuth the bot to your app. Make sure when you follow the OAuth link in your browser to authorize the bot, you load that page as the bot user. You'll get a pin to type back into the command line to complete the auth.
• Note the token and secret Twitter generates. It should be in the output from chatterbot-register.
• If you have trouble at this step, see Chatterbot's instructions here: http://muffinista.github.io/chatterbot/setup.html

• Assumes you've already installed Heroku Toolbelt CLI: https://toolbelt.heroku.com/
• heroku create yourbotname
• heroku plugins:install git://github.com/ddollar/heroku-config.git

• Rename the .rb and .yml files to your app name if need be
• Examples of what you can do with Chatterbot: http://muffinista.github.io/chatterbot/examples.html

Probably with debug_mode and/or no_update on.

• Change the line in Procfile to match your bot's .rb file
• In your Heroku dashboard, add config vars for CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, TOKEN, SECRET, and set ENV = PRODUCTION (Ignore this for now - not working on ENV vars yet)
• git push heroku master
• In your Heroku dashboard, turn the worker process on.

• heroku logs -t to see what it's doing
