ldnclj / parkrun-app

An app to get warnings if a certain parkrun is cancelled, started as a web scraper at Clojure Dojo

Parkrun-app

A (soon to be) parkrun notification app, written in Clojure.

Scrapes data from parkrun cancellations page at given time (1 second from now for the conference), filters dates to get the next weekend, searches for a particular parkrun of interest and prints out cancellation message if such parkrun is cancelled.

TODO - future improvements - next version

• Fix the job to run on Friday afternoon 🎉
• Send actual emails/messages when such parkrun is cancelled (using AWS and Amazonica for SNS) 📧 📱
• Make a fancy frontend 💅
• Suggest other parkrun nearby if the one of interest is cancelled 🗺️
• Possibilities are endless 💥
