Replace twitterapi.json with config via environment variables? #23

Closed aendra-rininsland closed 10 years ago

Related to the deployment discussion in #1, it really aids deployment and local development if things like API keys are stored in environment variables. You can then setup different env vars in different environments without having to change any of the code. It also means you don't store any credentials as plaintext, which is a nice security feature.

As well, this is the preferred way of doing things on both Elastic Beanstalk and Heroku.
