A bot that will keep checking for availability of vaccine for a locality and ping when available
Update districtId,age limit and vaccine type you want to be notified for in constants.js and run the scheduler with your choice of interval to get updates on vaccine availability.
Add your whatsapp number and "callmebot" api_key in .env, if you want to have whatsapp notifications.
.env content :
WHATSAPP_API_KEY=XXX
WHATSAPP_NUMBER=XXX
I'm adding the status to a file and reading it from a python code which updates my Raspberry Pi's LCD screen (Just for fun :)) Feel free to update the code to get notification in any form you want.
Note : The code was writtern in 2 hours, so excuse any shortcuts taken. Cheers !
Update log : Added Whatsapp notification to be sent whan a vaccine slot is available. Service used to send whatsapp notification is : https://www.callmebot.com/blog/free-api-whatsapp-messages/
