First and foremost, tremendous credit is due to Sean Kross for the awesome twilio R package, which this package depends on.
What I've done in this package is:
- generalized the process of configuring twilio API credentials so that they're saved in
.Renvironfiles. The advantages of this approach are that the credentials only need to be supplied once, and you won't risk accidentally pushing them to Github. This functionality is provided bytm_configure(). - wrapped the default example into a function with helpful error messages, and a set of punny pre-made messages. This functionality is provided by
textme()
