covidbrasilbot

Source for the Twitter bot @covidbrasilbot. It posts daily reports about the number of confirmed cases and deaths caused by COVID-19 in Brazil using {rtweet} and GitHub Actions. Built by @ramongss, inspired by the @londonmapbot created by @mattdray.

What

This repo contains a GitHub Action that runs on schedule (every day at 00:30 UTC). It executes the R code that retrieves the COVID-19 data from Wesley Cota's Github repo (wcota/covid19br), summarizes the information, generates the graphs with the confirmed cases and deaths info, and creates a "micro-report" to be posted. The report and the graphs are posted to @covidbrasilbot on Twitter using {rtweet} package.
