About

This tool is intended to help those who qualify (SEE RULES) for the COVID-19 vaccine at H-E-B find an appointment.

Please goto the COVID-19 vaccines at H-E-B Pharmacy Scheduler to read up on the qualification rules.

What it does

1. hev processes the vaccine schedule API on a regular cadence (every 5 seconds by default).
2. It will check the availability posted for ALL H-E-B locations in the list to determine if there are shots available.
3. It will then determine if the location is within a radius of miles based on your lat/long (user provided)
4. If the available shot is within your radius, it will alert you and open a browser directly to the appointment sign up page.

PLEASE NOTE: Slots are taken up FAST. Once the browser opens, it is very possible that the slot has been taken. Keep trying. Stay persistent. You will get one.

docker

The compiled docker images are maintained on GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io). We maintain the following tags:

• edge: Image that is build from the current HEAD of the main line branch.
• latest: Image that is built from the latest released version
• x.y.z (versions): Images that are build from the tagged versions within Github.

docker pull ghcr.io/clok/hev-cli
docker run -v "$PWD":/workdir ghcr.io/clok/hev-cli --version

Usage

Run the tool with a 50-mile radius, and a 2-second refresh rate. (The lat/long here is fake)
