Final Project for iXperience
To get this project up and running, you need to subscribe for three API keys, and add them as environment variables.
1.) Sunlight Foundation: http://sunlightfoundation.com/api/accounts/register/
2.) Open Secrets: https://www.opensecrets.org/api/admin/index.php?function=signup
3.) New York Times (get a key for the congress api) : https://myaccount.nytimes.com/auth/login?URI=http:/developer.nytimes.com/login/external
Once you have the keys, add the following environment variables to your .bashrc (for linux) or your .bash_profile (for mac) file, in your home directory: (obviously, with the keys in the quotes...and no space on either side of the equals sign!)
export SUNLIGHT_API=''
export NYT_API=''
export OPENSECRETS_API=''
