Turbovax

Turbovax gem helps you quickly stand up bots that can:

  1. fetch data from vaccine websites
  2. tweet appointment data
  3. return structured appointment data

Note: the gem does not provide data storage or web server functionality on its own. Please see turbovax-web repo for an example of how to build those layers on top of the gem.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Usage

Initialize configuration:

Turbovax.configure do |config|
  config.twitter_credentials = {
    consumer_key: "CONSUMER_KEY",
    consumer_secret: "CONSUMER_SECRET",
    access_token: "ACCESS_TOKEN",
    access_token_secret: "ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET"
  }
end

Create test portal:

class TestPortal < Turbovax::Portal
  name "Gotham City Clinic"
  key "gotham_city"
  public_url "https://www.turbovax.info/"
  api_url "http://api.turbovax.info/v1/test.json"
  request_http_method Turbovax::Constants::GET_REQUEST_METHOD

  parse_response do |response|
    response_json = JSON.parse(response)
    Array(response_json["appointments"]).map do |location_json|
      appointments = Array(location_json["slots"]).map do |appointment_string|
        {
          time: DateTime.parse(appointment_string)
        }
      end

      Turbovax::Location.new(
        id: "ID",
        name: location_json["clinic_name"],
        full_address: location_json["area"],
        time_zone: "America/New_York",
        data: {
          vaccine_types: [location_json["vaccine"]],
          appointments: appointments,
        }
      )
    end
  end
end

Execute operation:

locations = Turbovax::DataFetcher.new(TestPortal, twitter_handler: Turbovax::Handlers::LocationHandler).execute!

Advanced

Configuration

Specify logger:

Turbovax.configure do |config|
  config.logger = Logger.new($stdout, level: Logger::DEBUG)
end

Change Faraday (HTTP request library) logging:

Turbovax.configure do |config|
  config.faraday_logging_config = {
    headers: true,
    bodies: true,
    log_level: :info
  }
end

Disable tweets:

Turbovax.configure do |config|
  config.twitter_enabled = false
end

DataFetcher

Provide extra parameters:

Turbovax::DataFetcher.new(
  TestPortal,
  twitter_handler: Turbovax::Handlers::LocationHandler,
  # will be passed to Portal methods
  extra_params: {
    site_id: 123,
    date: "2021-08-08",
  }
).execute!

Portal

Custom HTTP headers (curl-to-ruby is helpful here):

class TestPortal < Turbovax::Portal
  request_headers do
    headers = {}
    headers["Connection"] = "keep-alive"
    headers["Pragma"] = "no-cache"
    headers["Cache-Control"] = "no-cache"
    headers["Sec-Ch-Ua"] = "\"Google Chrome\";v=\"89\", \"Chromium\";v=\"89\", \";Not A Brand\";v=\"99\""
    headers
  end
end

Use extra params provided by data fetcher:

class TestPortal < Turbovax::Portal
  request_body do
    {
      site_id: data_fetcher_params[:site_id],
    }
  end
end

Interpolate variables into URL:

# resulting URL https://www.example-site.info/abc/2021-08-08
class TestPortal < Turbovax::Portal
  api_url "https://www.example-site.info/%{site_id}/${date}"
  api_url_variables do
    {
      site_id: data_fetcher_params[:site_id],
      date: data_fetcher_params[:date].strftime("%F"),
    }
  end
end

Use HTTP POST:

class TestPortal < Turbovax::Portal
  request_http_method Turbovax::Constants::POST_REQUEST_METHOD
end
