COVID-19 Vaccine Spotter

A tool to help you track down COVID-19 vaccine appointment openings at your state's pharmacies. The code behind https://www.vaccinespotter.org.

UI Development Setup

Requirements:

  • Node.js 14+
  • Yarn

This process is clunky right now, so my apologies.

  1. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/GUI/covid-vaccine-spotter.git
  2. Install dependencies (inside the repo): yarn install
  3. Fetch data from the API for the website to run: yarn setup
  4. To run the development server for the website: yarn dev. The development site should then be available at http://localhost:3000/.

DB and Backend Development Setup

docker-compose is used to bring up a local postgres DB. Then an image runs to bootstrap the database with states and postal codes. Finally, as an example of a backend task running, a container runs the refresh-website task.

docker-compose build
docker-compose up

To run additional tasks, you can use docker-compose run:

docker-compose run --rm --no-deps task_runner bin/refresh-cvs

Very Beta API

All of the data being collected is published as JSON files here: https://www.vaccinespotter.org/api/
