Twitter tile

This tile displays Twitter mentions.

##Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require spatie/laravel-dashboard-twitter-tile

In the dashboard config file, you must add this configuration in the tiles key. You can add a configuration in the configurations key per Twitter tile that you want to display. Any tweet that contains one of the strings in listen_for will be display on the dashboard.

// in config/dashboard.php

return [
    // ...
    'tiles' => [
          'twitter' => [
                'configurations' => [
                    'default' => [
                        'access_token' => env('TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN'),
                        'access_token_secret' => env('TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET'),
                        'consumer_key' => env('TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY'),
                        'consumer_secret' => env('TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET'),
                        'listen_for' => [
                            // 
                        ],
                    ],
                ],
                'refresh_interval_in_seconds' => 5,
            ],
    ],
];

Under the hood this package uses spatie/laravel-twitter-streaming-api. Take a look in the readme of the package to learn how you can get the values for access_token, access_token_secret, consumer_key, and consumer_key.

##Usage

To starting listening for incoming tweets of the configuration named default, you must execute this command:

php artisan dashboard:listen-twitter-mentions

This command will never end. In production should probably want to use something like Supervisord to keep this this task running and to automatically start it when your system restarts.

To start listening for tweets of another configuration, simply add the name of the configuration as an arugment.

php artisan dashboard:listen-twitter-mentions alternate-configuration-name

In your dashboard view you use the livewire:twitter-tile component to display tweets of the default configuration.

<x-dashboard>
    <livewire:twitter-tile position="a1:a6"/>
</x-dashboard>

To display tweets of another configuration, pass the name of the configuration to the configuration-name prop.

<x-dashboard>
    <livewire:twitter-tile position="a1:a6" configuration-name="alternate-configuration-name"/>
</x-dashboard>

##Customizing the view

If you want to customize the view used to render this tile, run this command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\TwitterTile\TwitterTileServiceProvider" --tag="dashboard-twitter-tile-views"
