Channel

Kernel Tracker is the channel where the bot will be sending the updates in.

Introduction

This is a Telegram Bot to Track Kernel Upstreams kernel.org and send it to a telegram channel specified. I used BeautifulSoup to scrape the data from the kernel.org website and telegram http api to send the message to the channel.


Configuration



 Get Bot API Key from @BotFather



Fill the values in vars_sample.env and rename it into vars.env.

And run the bot by running:-

python3 -m tracker





Other uses

The bot regularly updates the data.json whenever the new Kernel gets released. So you can fetch data.json and create your own module to get you a remainder about the Kernel Upstreams. An example repository is here.
