HTML Table to Excel parser + Telegram Notification bot

Overview

• This code was written to monitor SIEMENS SIMATIC S7 CPU variable tables accessed through http.
• The html table is refreshed periodically to extract data and send status updates of the laboratory via Telegram to Smartphones.
• This includes Plots and Webcam images.
• Read the description in the header of main.m to understand the logic + tutorial for generation of Telegram Bot.
• There is a full Matlab Telegram API for bidirectional communication, but it seemed like overkill for this task.
• This is not a "proper (or general) implementation" but may be useful for you if you face a similar problem.
• Webcam access requires Webcam Toolbox / Vision Toolbox, Telegram and HTML Table parsing only requires vanilla Matlab license.

• Code is provided "as is".
