Recieve and Download MMS Messages. Powered by Twilio - Node.js/Express

Use Twilio to receive and download MMS messages. For a step-by-step tutorial see the Twilio docs.

Local development

First you need to install Node.js.

To run the app locally:

1. Clone this repository and cd into it

   git clone [email protected]:TwilioDevEd/receive-mms-node.git && \
   
   cd receive-mms-node

2. Install dependencies

   npm install -g yarn && \
   yarn install

3. Copy the sample configuration file and edit it to match your configuration

   $ cp .env .env.local

   You can find your TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID and TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN in your Twilio Account Settings. You will also need a TWILIO_PHONE_NUMBER, which you may find here.

   Run source .env.local to export the environment variables

4. Run the application

   yarn start

   Alternatively you might also consider using nodemon for this. It works just like the node command but automatically restarts your application when you change any source code files.

   yarn global add nodemon && \
   nodemon index.js 

5. Check it out at http://localhost:3000

That's it

Run the tests

You can run the tests locally by typing

yarn test
