####Intro
Alot of time spent hacking and attempting to reverse engineer the code in this tutorial(controling a servo motor with SMS via Twilio). I did a p_comp Node.JS lab and decided to start hacking on Twilio’s documentation in particular its compatibility with Node.js.
####The test worked!
Code below. Next step, getting it to work alongside Arduino Serialport library.
To note:
I should be able to alter JSON values in Twilios code (client.sendMessage.to and client.sendMessage.body) to alter phone number and SMS content which a user can set from the browser.
//require the Twilio module and create a REST client
var client = require('twilio')('<--[removed]-->', '<--[removed]-->');
//Send an SMS text message
client.sendMessage({
to:'+17185701757', // Any number Twilio can deliver to
from: '+17182159247', // A number you bought from Twilio and can use for outbound communication
body: 'Hello Osama - this is a test message.' // body of the SMS message
}, function(err, responseData) { //this function is executed when a response is received from Twilio
if (!err) { // "err" is an error received during the request, if any
// "responseData" is a JavaScript object containing data received from Twilio.
// A sample response from sending an SMS message is here (click "JSON" to see how the data appears in JavaScript):
// http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/rest/sending-sms#example-1
console.log(responseData.from); // outputs "+14506667788"
console.log(responseData.body); // outputs "word to your mother."
}
});
