CLI and Ruby tools for drone-maker DJI's store, account, order status and more.
If you already have Ruby installed on your computer, you can install this. Otherwise, go install Ruby and come back to these instructions.
Open a command line (Terminal on macOS):
$ gem install dji
When updates are released, you can get them with:
$ gem update dji
If you do not manage your Ruby installations with RVM and are just using the system ruby, you might need to prefix the above commands with sudo, such as:
$ sudo gem install dji
If you are on Ubuntu Linux, you can do:
$ sudo apt install ruby ruby-dev
$ sudo gem install dji
$ dji track [options]
REQUIRED:
-o, --order ORDER_NUMBER # Your order number
-p, --phone PHONE_TAIL # Last 4 digits of your phone number
OPTIONAL:
-r, --repeat INTERVAL # Repeat every INTERVAL seconds
--publish # Publish your order details to http://dji-track.herokuapp.com/orders
-c, --country COUNTRY # Your country (use 3 letter code, such as USA)
-t, --order_time TIMESTAMP # The timestamp from your private order page at https://accounts.dji.com/user/orders surrounded by quotes (i.e. "2016-09-29 11:21:21 (UTC)")
-u, --dji_username USERNAME # Your DJI Forum username
-d, --debug # Some additional output used when emailing [email protected] for assistance
Use your order number in place of ORDER_NUMBER and the last 4 digits of your phone number for PHONE_TAIL. A full example might look like this:
$ dji track -o 123456789012 -p 1234

If you want this to repeat automatically at an interval, specify the option for repeat (either -r or --repeat) with the number of seconds. Do not use this nefariously, I suggest a reasonable interval such as 60 seconds, but more useful is probably around 300 seconds (5 minutes) to 600 seconds (10 minutes).
$ dji track -o 123456789012 -p 1234 -r 60

If you think your shipper is FedEx but you don't have a tracking code yet, you might be able to find your shipment by searching Fedex by reference. This allows you to search and track by reference.
$ dji track -c COUNTRY_CODE -p POSTAL_CODE
An example of searching in the USA (country code is us) with a postal code:
$ dji fedex -c us -p 94123
