Twitter bot in Empathy

By using an empty Empathy application as the glue (and using some of the wrapper code around Pheantalk for queues), we can easily create a twitter bot that favourites tweets for a given stream and thusly attacting attention to our own profile. The composer.json looks like this:

{
    name: "newblog",
    description: "A new blog",
    require: {
        mikejw/elib-base: "dev-develop",
        pda/pheanstalk: "dev-master",
        fennb/phirehose: "dev-master",
        abraham/twitteroauth: "dev-master",
        monolog/monolog: "1.13.1"
    },
    minimum-stability: "dev",
    autoload: {
        psr-0: {
            HFSBot: "src/"
        }
    }
}
