# Advanced Call Forwarding with Node and Express

[![Node.js CI](https://github.com/TwilioDevEd/call-forwarding-node/actions/workflows/node.js.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/TwilioDevEd/call-forwarding-node/actions/workflows/node.js.yml)

Learn how to use [Twilio](https://www.twilio.com) to forward a series of phone
calls to your state senators.

## Local Development
This project is built using the [Express](https://expressjs.com) web framework,
and runs on Node.

We recommend to install Node through
[nvm](https://github.com/creationix/nvm#install-script) (when possible)

```sh
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.2/install.sh | bash \
nvm install node --stable
```

And [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install#alternatives-tab) through
`npm`.

```sh
npm install --global yarn
```

To run the app locally, follow these steps:

1. Clone this repository and `cd` into it.

```sh
   git clone https://github.com/TwilioDevEd/call-forwarding-node.git \
   cd call-forwarding-node
   ```

2. Install the dependencies with:

```
   yarn install
   ```

3. Run the migrations:

```
   yarn run migrate
   ```

4. Seed the database with data:

```
   yarn run seed
   ```

This will load senators.json and US zip codes into your SQLite database.
   Please note: our senators dataset is likely outdated, and we've mapped
   senators to placeholder phone numbers that are set up with Twilio to read
   a message and hang up.

5. Expose your application to the internet using
   [ngrok](https://www.twilio.com/blog/2015/09/6-awesome-reasons-to-use-ngrok-when-testing-webhooks.html).
   In a separate terminal session, start ngrok with:

```
   ngrok http 3000
   ```

Once you have started ngrok, update your TwiML application's voice URL
   setting to use your ngrok hostname. It will look something like this in
   your Twilio [console](https://www.twilio.com/console/phone-numbers/):

```
   https://d06f533b.ngrok.io/callcongress/welcome
   ```

6. Start your development server:

```
   yarn start
   ```

Once ngrok is running, open up your browser and go to your ngrok URL.

## Run the Tests

```
yarn test
```
