We are getting all kinds of attention now - which I do not want to handle. So there won't be any additional commits to this project. It has been put on indefinite hold.
- This is a proof of concept project. I do NOT endorse or condone, in any shape or form, automating any monitoring/booking tasks. Use at your own risk.
- This CANNOT book slots automatically. It doesn't skip any of the steps that a normal user would have to take on the official portal. You will still have to enter the OTP and Captcha.
- Do NOT use unless all the beneficiaries selected are supposed to get the same vaccine and dose.
- There is no option to register new mobile or add beneficiaries. This can be used only after beneficiary has been added through the official app/site.
- API Details (read the first paragraph at least): https://apisetu.gov.in/public/marketplace/api/cowin/cowin-public-v2
- BMC Link: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/pallupz
- And finally, I know code quality isn't great. Suggestions are welcome.
- https://github.com/bombardier-gif/covid-vaccine-booking : I haven't tried this personally but, it looks like a promising, completely automated solution that would require a bit more setting up.
For the anyone not familiar with Python and using Windows, using the covid-vaccine-slot-booking.exe
executable file (EDIT: EXE is not working at the moment due to unresolved errors) would be the easiest way. It might trigger an anti-virus alert. That's because I used pyinstaller
to package the python code and it needs a bit more effort to avoid such alerts.
OR
Use Python 3.7 and install all the dependencies with:
pip install -r requirements.txt
If you're on Linux, install the beep package before running the Python script. To install, run:
sudo apt-get install beep
If you're on MacOS, install the SoX (Sound eXchange) before running the Python script. To install, run:
brew install sox
Then, run the script file as show below:
python src\covid-vaccine-slot-booking.py
If you already have a bearer token, you can also use:
python src\covid-vaccine-slot-booking.py --token=YOUR-TOKEN-HERE
