Kobotracker: a crypto tracker for the Kobo

[roedesh]

For the last couple of weeks I have been working on a crypto tracker for the Kobo, and I have released the first version yesterday.

Meet Kobotracker. The app is written in Go and uses the koxtoolchain in order to build for the Kobo. Installation and configuration guide can be found on the Github page.

Features

• Uses data from the CoinGecko API
• Keeps cycling trough my list of coins/tokens indefinitely and updating the prices in the background
• Shows the current price, the chart of ... days (configurable) and the lowest and highest price of that period
• Supports any fiat currency that CoinGecko also supports
• Battery indicator

Configurable options
All options can be configured via a simple config.ini file.

• Which coins/tokens to show
• How long each coin should be shown
• How often prices should be updated
• For how many days the chart should show data. Setting it to 1 day shows the hourly chart
• Which fiat currency to show the prices in

Some notes

• I have only tested this on the Kobo Libra H2O
• This package assumes you have NickelMenu installed
