biking-bot

A simple evaluation bot run daily to check if the commute to work will be better done by bike or car

config

Set the following env variables:

TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=<bot token>
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID=<chat id>

WAYPOINTS_JSON=[{"name": "<name1>", "lat": <lat of name1>, "lon": <lon of name 1>}, ...]
PRECIPITATION_LIMIT_MM=<desired percipitation limit>
WIND_GUST_LIMIT_KMH=<desired wind speed limit>
COMMUTE_HOURS=<desired commute hours>

WAYPOINTS_JSON is an array of waypoints, each comprised of the following:

{
    "name": "start", # name of the waypoint
    "lat": 0.0, # "latitude of the waypoint"
    "lon": 0.0  # "longitude of the waypoint"
}

Recommendation: set start, end and a waypoint every few km (my case: every 3km)

PRECIPITATION_LIMIT_MM is typically a value between 0.0 and 1.0 (mm of rain), default is 0.5 - reduce accordingly if not even light rain is okay WIND_GUST_LIMIT_KMH is the windspeed in km/h - default is 50 COMMUTE_HOURS is a comma-separated string of hours where the commute is to be evaluated, 7,8 as default
