Examples

CommonJS usage

const { useTwilioSms, useTwilioConversation } = require("@cmpsr/twilio");

ES usage

import { useTwilioSms, useTwilioConversation } from "@cmpsr/twilio";

Sending a sms with ExpressJS

const express = require("express");
const { useTwilioSms } = require("@cmpsr/twilio");

const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

const twilioSms = useTwilioSms();

app.post("/send-sms", async (req, res) => {
  const { message, from, to } = req.body;
  const response = await twilioSms.send(message, from, to);
  res.json(response);
});

Creating a conversation with ExpressJS

const express = require("express");
const { useTwilioConversation } = require("@cmpsr/twilio");

const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

const twilioConversation = useTwilioConversation();

app.post("/", async (req, res) => {
  const {
    body: { friendlyName },
  } = req;
  const conversation = await twilioConversation.create(friendlyName);
  res.json(conversation);
});

API

useTwilioSms([, accountSid[, authToken, serviceId]])

const accountSid = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
const authToken = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
const serviceId = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";

const twilioSms = useTwilioSms(accountSid, authToken, serviceId);

NOTE

If you don't pass the optional parameters it will take those values from your environment variables, so you may want to create a .env file or set global variables into your OS.

# in your .env file
TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID = ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
TWILIO_CHAT_SERVICE_SID = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Now, load your variables using the dotenv package

require("dotenv").config();
const { useTwilioSms } = require("@cmpsr/twilio");
const twilioSms = useTwilioSms();

useTwilioConversation([, accountSid[, authToken, serviceId]])

const accountSid = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
const authToken = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
const serviceId = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";

const twilioConversation = useTwilioConversation(
  accountSid,
  authToken,
  serviceId
);

NOTE

If you don't pass the optional parameters it will take those values from your environment variables, so you may want to create a .env file or set global variables into your OS.

# in your .env file
TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID = ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
TWILIO_CHAT_SERVICE_SID = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Now, load your variables using the dotenv package

require("dotenv").config();
const { twilioConversation } = require("@cmpsr/twilio");
