twilio

A Drupal module that listens for incoming twilio messages, geocodes address data, and replies with information about nearby KEYSPOT locations.

This Drupal module was developed for The Reentry Project in collaboration with Code for Philly at the Power Up Reentry Hackathon.

How it works

• A Twilio app accepts SMS, and issues a webhook to the drupal site at http://example.com/keyspot
• The module geocodes the SMS body to obtain a location
• Using the location, the module queries Carto SQL for the top 3 nearby Keyspot locations, and sends the response to Twilio
• The user can send another SMS with keywords "food", "shelter", "medicine", or "all" to find nearby locations from the Community Services dataset

Datasets:

• Philly KEYSPOT Locations
• Community Services
