FaceTwilio

Chat with your facebook friends using regular SMS texting.

You need a twilio account/phone number.
You need an ngrok account.

Setting up:

  • clone this repo
  • pip install requirments.txt
  • create your twilio and ngrok accounts
  • execute: ngrok http 5000
    (or use a different port, but you'll have to change it in twilio2fb.py too)
  • Go to your twilio phone number settings, copy ngrok_https_url/sms into the 'A MESSAGE COMES IN' webhook field
    ('ngrok_https_url' is the https url that ngrok generated in previous step)
  • go to creds.py and fill in your facebook and twilio information
  • run: python main.py

Usage:

To send the message 'Hello Jane' to facebook contact 'Jane Doe', text "Jane Doe: Hello Jane" to your twilio phone number
