TweetDashboard

This project (other than the Express server) was generated with angular-cli version 1.0.0.

Twitter API

Visit the Twitter dev page and create a basic application to gain access to necessary API credentials. Set CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, ACCESS_TOKEN_KEY, ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET in server.js.

Development server

Run npm install to install all dependencies (d3, express, socket.io, and twitter libs have been added to this otherwise stock Angular CLI project). Run npm run serve-build for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:3000/.

Note: This project was recently updated to Angular v2.3.1, Angular-CLI v1.0.0, and TypeScript v2.0.10. For a clean build run:

npm uninstall -g angular-cli
npm uninstall --save-dev angular-cli
npm install -g @angular/cli@latest
rm -rf node_modules dist
npm install

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive/pipe/service/class.
