Twilio SMS Script

Description

This is a simple script built to enable sending SMS through the terminal via the twilio api.

In order to use the script, you need the twilio npm package installed:

npm install -g twilio

And you need to ensure you have the following environment variables set up appropriately:

TWILIO_SID TWILIO_TOKEN TWILIO_NUMBER

These refer to your Twilio account's SID, Auth Token, and a valid Twilio number, respectively.

Here's an example of how this script would be used from the node repl:

> .load ./sms.js

> sendMsgToFakeNumber = buildMsgSender('+15555555555')

> sendMsgToFakeNumber('Some message')

The above would result in the phone number +15555555555 receiving an SMS reading "Some message".
