TextRightNow

Textrn

This is a Go package that encapsulates SMS messaging from a Go binary, using the TextNow service.

Features

Currently the only supported feature is sending an SMS message to a specified number from the user's TextNow number. Accordingly, they must first register an account with TextNow.

Usage

Note that as mentioned above, a TextNow account must first be created. Upon doing so, determine your connect_sid value by navigating to here, inspecting the webpage and finding the value of the cookie connect.sid.

Also remember the username that was registered with TextNow, as that will be the value of username.

import "github.com/nathantau/textrn"
...
    client := &textrn.Client{connect_sid, username}
    err := client.SendMessage("<Phone Number>", "<Message Body>")
    if err == "err" {
        // An error occurred
    }
