SiteChecker

A simple Go program to monitor changes on a specified web page and notify you in the console when changes occur.

Features

• Continuously monitors a specified URL.
• Alerts the user when the HTML content of the page changes.
• Allows customizing the checking interval in seconds.

Requirements

• Go 1.20+ (or latest version)

Installation / Download

Build from Source

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/Alperosci/SiteChecker.git
cd SiteChecker

2. Run the program:

go run main.go

3. Or build it:

Pre-built Release

You can also download pre-built binaries from the Releases section and run them directly without building from source.

Usage

When you start the program, you will be prompted for two inputs:

1. URL: The web page you want to monitor.
2. Wait time: The checking interval in seconds.

Example:

URL : https://example.com
Wait time (second) : 10
Waiting started
Waiting 10 seconds ...
Waiting 10 seconds ...
A change detected!

How It Works

• The program first stores the initial HTML content of the page.
• It then repeatedly checks the page at the specified interval.
• If the content changes, it prints "A change detected!" to the console.
