# alert_on_rain_tomorrow
A simple job designed to run inside a cron wrapper of some sort (pick your poison as each orchestrator/cloud provider has its own way of doing scheduled jobs nowadays) that will alert via telegram & email when it looks like it will rain tomorrow then exit (it's not long-running as again it's designed to run inside a cron scheduler of some kind).

Running
The container will run with the following command, check for rain tomorrow and alert if it looks like a rainy day then exit, It's designed to run under some cron scheduler (k8s, metronome/mesos or linux OS cron), below is the example command needed to run the container one off
docker run -e OWM_API_KEY="my_owm_token" -e CITY="Tel Aviv" -e COUNTRY_CODE="IL" -e SMTP_SERVER="smtp.gmail.com" -e SENDER_EMAIL="[email protected]" -e RECEIVER_EMAIL="[email protected]" -e EMAIL_PASSWORD="pass" -e EMAIL_PORT="465" -e TELEGRAM_TOKEN="my_token" -e CHAT_ID="123" naorlivne/alert_on_rain_tomorrow
Configuration options
alert_on_rain_tomorrow uses sane defaults, but they can all be easily changed:
| value | envvar | default value | notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| owm_api_key | OWM_API_KEY | You can get a free one at https://openweathermap.org/ | |
| city | CITY | The city you want to be alerted should it rain tomorrow | |
| country_code | COUNTRY_CODE | The 2 capital letters country code where the city is located at | |
| smtp_server | SMTP_SERVER | SMTP server address which mail is sent through (SSL/TLS enabled) | |
| sender_email | SENDER_EMAIL | Email address to send the alert out of | |
| receiver_email | RECEIVER_EMAIL | Email address to send the alert to | |
| email_password | EMAIL_PASSWORD |
sender_email account password |
|
| email_port | EMAIL_PORT | SMTP server port | |
| telegram_token | TELEGRAM_TOKEN | Telegram API token | |
| chat_id | CHAT_ID | Telegram chat_id with the bot which you'll be alerted through |
The easiest way to change a default value is to pass the envvar key\value to the docker container with the -e cli arg but if you want you can also create a configuration file with the settings you wish (in whatever of the standard format you desire) & place it in the /www/config folder inside the container.
Most providers also allow setting their configuration access_keys\etc via envvars use -e cli args to configure them is ideal as well but should you wish to configure a file you can also easily mount\copy it into the container as well.
