A telegram bot at the end of the pipeline provides the relevant info as alerts.\n\n### Technologies you used\n\nGo, Apache Kafka, Confluent Cloud, ksqlDB, Telegram API, Google API\n\n### What problem does it solve? Why did you build this project?\n\nThis question has long bothered me: How can you sign up for notifications from a system that doesn't offer an alerts API? How can we get a computer or system to monitor something we want to be aware of on the internet and notify us when it changes? For instance, let's say that my friends and I participate in a video that is recorded and posted to YouTube. Since I don't own the video, YouTube won't notify me when there are any new likes or comments.\n\nThe strategy used here is that I start by creating a playlist of things I want to watch on YouTube, and every time I want to watch a new video, I can just add it to that playlist. Look up the videos using a script in Go, check their statistics with Google API, and just stream that snapshot of data up to Kafka and deal with it by stream processing. I can then pull out the relevant info into my phone using Telegram API and a Kafka Connector. (Disclaimer: The solution is not originally mine. It is adapted from a python solution found in the internet. )\n\n### What can be improved?\nProject is at a very rudimentary stage but functional. A more micro-service oriented architecture will help it to be scalable. For efficiency, code refactoring is required. Deployment process can be improved with Docker and scheduler systems.\n\n## Installation instructions\n- Download and extract the zip file to a folder in the local machine.\n- Get the keys for YouTube API \u0026 Telegram API Key\n- Create appropriate config files  with the above info along with kafka properties \n- Run the command in CMD (on the folder path): `make run`\n\n## Demo\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fryanjoy0000%2Fyt-notifier","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fryanjoy0000%2Fyt-notifier","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fryanjoy0000%2Fyt-notifier/lists"}
