Nederland-Alert.py

An unofficial open-source Discord bot that uses Dutch government API's to forward governement or Police issued notofication to Discord, in python.

Required configuration

.env the environment file is critical and should contain the following.

# Bot settings
NL_ALERT_IMAGE_URL = ""
# Bot configuration
BOT_TOKEN = ''
POLITIE_V5_API_VERMIST = "https://api.politie.nl/v5/vermist"
AMBER_ALERT_API = "https://services.burgernet.nl/landactiehost/api/v1/alerts"
NL_ALERT_API = "https://api.public-warning.app/api/v1/providers/nl-alert/alerts"
# MySQL configuration
MYSQLUSER = ''
MYSQLPASSOWRD = ''
MYSQLDATABASE = ''
MYSQLHOST = ''
MYSQLPORT = ''
MYSQLCACERTPATH = ''

The code expects a MySQL database with a TLS secured connection, if you run this localy you may want to remove or comment out in the .env file MYSQLCACERTPATH and remove the python code bellow.

    'ssl': {
        'ca': f'{MYSQLCACERTPATH}',
    }

I will not write a complete setup guide because I do not intent that everyone is going run this bot for them selves. I posted this out of transparency. Click here to invite the application to your Discord server or add it to your 'personal' applications
