CLI script for updating bio at Twitter and GitHub in one go.

Unfortunately a bit tricky to set up.

Video demonstration

Setup

All the services are optional. If you don't add proper keys to .env file, it will be skipped in runtime.

Twitter

  1. Create Twitter Developer portal app https://developer.twitter.com/en/portal/dashboard.
  2. Save consumer key and consumer secret to .env file as TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY and TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET.
  3. Set up authentication in order to give your app read/write permissions (default is read only). You can put http://localhost:3000/callback as callback URL and https://example.org as the website. Twitter dashboard screenshot

GitHub

  1. Create an access token https://github.com/settings/tokens?type=beta and save it to .env as GITHUB_BEARER_TOKEN.

Mastodon

  1. Create app in settings https://YOUR_INSTANCE/settings/applications Mastodon settings screenshot. Only write:accounts permission is needed, not even any read.
  2. Save Your access token and add it as MASTODON_BEARER_TOKEN to .env.

Run

source .env
node index.mjs

You will be asked to visit Twitter authentication page where you will get PIN to paste into the app.

Possibly in future
