Website | Tweets @corona19_stats | toots @[email protected]

GitLab | GitHub

1) Automated toots

Using the code example from my quick_toot project, we will setup automated tooting of text and an image.

2) Create our node.js project

  • Create index.js
  • Create package.json

3) Fetch Covid stats

From this API, we will grab the latest coronoa stats.

4) Render a Pie Chart

Using the stats fetched, let's create a pie chart using D3, rendered using canvas

5) Schedule to run every day with GitLab

Using gitlab CI/CD, let's schedule this to run every day for our project

  • Create .gitignore
  • Create Dockerfile
  • Create .gitlab-ci.yml
  • Git Push
  • Setup schedule

6) Line chart showing 7 day moving average of both deaths and cases

  • Parse historical data into 7 day moving average
  • Render into multi-line chart for both deaths and cases
  • Include dependancies for headless chrome in docker

7) Line chart

  • 7-day rolling average
  • Deaths
  • Cases
  • 2 y axis labels
  • Color coated

8) Deployment docker deps

  • Chrome headless docker deps
  • GitLab CICD

9) Region / Locations

  • Countries
  • US State

10) Subscriptable

  • On each run, via Mastodon
  • Look through latest notifications to me (limit 50)
  • If notification msg is @me and has "sub" / "unsub"
  • Look at the toot it was in reply_to - Grab region code after "#covid_"
    • Add the user to a mastodon list (and follow them first) by the name of the country code
  • If no reply_to, check for #code
  • While generting toots for each region
  • Check if we have a list by that region name, grab it's users
  • Add them into the toot msg as @
