RESTful HTTP method cheat sheet

GET

  • fetch entity data only
  • does not alter any data, ever

POST

  • create a new entity with the data values provided in the body
  • if an entity already exists with these values, create it anyway (read: non-idempotent)
  • should not be used to alter an existing entity

How to generate random tweet strings using your Twitter archive
  1. Log into Twitter and go to your settings
  2. Request your Twitter archive
  3. Download and unzip the archive file
  4. Put tweets.csv in the same directory as this gist's package.json and markov-tweets.js files
  5. Run npm install to install dependencies
  6. Run node markov-tweets.js to generate some strings!

Running the script may take a few seconds depending on the size of your archive CSV. When it's done it will log out 20 random strings based on the Markov chain generated.
