Hi,
I released a shell script that reads products / categories / tags from endoflife.date api.
The main usage is to check if the currently installed version of a product or your Linux distribution. It has some command line parameters to define the level of output details. If an EOL date is set for the current version it shows the number of days left. It shows warnings and error if the support for your version has ended or product is not maintained anymore. Each result is represented by its own exitcode as well that it could be used in scripts.
You also can get just list of tags or categories or dump the JSON response for a given product key.
The script requires
curl
anjq
. An api response will be stored in /tmp for caching for 24 h to improve speed.Examples:

I hope that it is useful for a few other people too.
