Alert COVID-19

Alert COVID-19 is a small multiplatform tool written in Golang to help keep you informed about the current situation of COVID-19 in your region, while you stay safe at home.

At every hour, it fetches data from an API and displays a native notification on your system if there's any updates on the number of confirmed cases, deaths or recovered patients.

Getting started

If you just want to get up and running, follow these steps:

1. Go to the release page
2. Download the lastest release for your platform (MacOS, Linux or Windows)
3. Extract the contents and run the executable file

Building the project

If you want to build the project yourself, here's how you can use our Makefile:

# Build the project
$ make <macos|linux|windows>
# If you're on Windows, you can also run "make zip" to create a zipped executable

# Run the program, updating every 10s and if there's a changes, display a notification
# Defaults to 1h00m00s (1 hour)
$ ./alertcovid19 -t 10s

# If you want to remove the built files
$ make clean

# Or simply...
$ go run .

Dependencies for building:

• Go
• Golint
• Gosec
