CLI to parse Malaysia Holidays

Prerequisites

This tool uses a headless Chrome browser to scrape holiday data. You need Google Chrome installed.

Installing Chrome on WSL (Ubuntu)

# Download and install Google Chrome
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo apt install -y ./google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

# Verify installation
google-chrome --version

Note: On WSL, you don't need a display server. Pass -headless=true for unattended runs (the flag defaults to false, which opens a visible Chrome window).

Usage

An overview of the available flags:

Flag	Description	Default
-year	Year to fetch holidays for	2025
-format	Output format: json or csv	json
-out	Output file name without extension	holidays
-headless	Run Chrome in headless mode	false

Example

go run main.go -format json -out holidays -year 2025 -headless=true

Output is written to <out>-<year>.<format>, e.g. holidays-2025.json.
