A daily ADSL usage reporter via Slack webhooks.
This was one of my first experiments with learning Clojure and deploying an application.
The app uses clj-http and enlive to scrape the MWEB self-service portal for ADSL usage information, and reports the numbers via a Slack webhook. This is done daily at 8:00 with chime (instead of running via cron).
I had the uberjar running on a VPS for months without any issues.
Although this code is very much what you'd expect from someone learning Clojure, my hope is that it helps by contributing something simple and practical to the corpus of Clojure code available to the public.
This project is designed to run as a stand-alone process that will report your daily ADSL usage. Simply create a Slack webhook, a configuration file and compile and you're off to the races.
Create a file named resources/config.edn with content like this:
{:mweb {:username "nnnnnnnnn"
:password "topsecret"}
:slack-webhook "https://hooks.slack.com/services/..."}
Then compile an uberjar with lein uberjar. The resulting target/dsl-stats-1.0.0-standalone.jar can by copied anywhere with a JVM and executed.
$ java -jar dsl-stats.jar
By default it will run immediately, report usage and exit. To run it in scheduled mode, simply pass -s:
$ java -jar dsl-stats.jar -s
I had it running in a tmux session.
If you're learning Clojure, there are some learning opportunities right here in this repo!
- Update the project to support your own ISP.
- Make the schedule configurable via the command line.
- Fix the nightly usage message
Well, I'm not using this anymore, but if you have something please open an issue to discuss.
