Humble request 🙏🏻
if you are configuring this service on your machine please do not overwhelm the cowin server, keep the ping duration optimum, by default its hard coded to 20 minutes
Vaccine Locator is service that calls the cowin(co-vin) API and fetches the available slots (18+ only) for vaccine for current day only. if slots are available this service will send message on Configured Public Telegram channel.This application as of now fetches vaccine slots for only 1 configured district.
Pull request’s are open. If you are running the application for your district please update the README file here as well as application.yml so that if for your district anyone is running application you don’t have to run it just join telegram channel.
