🙁 Uber Eats Ruined My Life - Solved with NodeJS

Hey guys!

I've been spending over $600 bucks per month in Uber Eats. My mentality was "Spend less time doing low-effort stuff, and more time coding and making MVP's of my projects"

So I thought it was going to be fun project to make a script that will listen to my keystrokes and bully me every time I try to go inside of "Uber eats."

Here is a quick youtube video explaining the whole thing:

For some PC's you will be required to use sudo when you run this script.

// Twilio API and a Key logger  for mac
const client = require('twilio')(twilio_sid, twilio_token);
const GK = require('global-keypress');

// we start the keylogger for mac-os 10.5
const gk = new GK();
gk.start();

// the word we are looking for 
const word = 'uber'
let wordBuilder = ''

// lets find it.
gk.on('press', data => {

    if (word[wordBuilder.length] === data.data) {
        wordBuilder += data.data;
        if (word === wordBuilder) {
            client.messages
                .create({
                    body: 'I am about to spend 20$ in uber eats, why the fuck are you letting me do this - https://the-cray-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/vid.mp4',
                    from: 'whatsapp:+' + from_number,
                    to: 'whatsapp:+' + mom,
                })
                .then(message => console.log(message.sid))
                .done();
        }
    } else {
        wordBuilder = ''
    }
});

Thank you for reading my first post on dev.to. I would appreciate any feedback
