My main painpoint was that

1. I had to enter the OTP whenever the token expired
2. I had to manually choose the slot
3. The frequency of polling was not enough to book slots

**Hence I automated the entire thing end-to-end ;) **

Please share your thoughts on it.

Code and steps to install are here. https://github.com/bombardier-gif/covid-vaccine-booking Its hacky and dirty. Pull requests are welcome ;)

Getting the below response - did they implement a CAPTCHA?

Booking Response Code: 400
Booking Response : {"errorCode":"APPOIN0044", "error":"Please enter valid security code"}
Response: 400 : {"errorCode":"APPOIN0044", "error":"Please enter valid security code"}

Suggestion: The token contains the time stamp for start and end ('iat': 1621506724, 'exp': 1621507624) of token validation, this can help in invalid token check without calling the beneficiary api everytime

use pyjwt Also this will allow to regenerate the otp automatically just before expiration (if auto is selected)

I understand many people looked down upon such bots. I personally prefer this current Human Vs Human situation with captcha than the Human Vs Bot situation before.

But overall the booking system has been flawed in the first place. I was able to get a slot myself manually by quick response, and with time it got more and more difficult for my friends and family. Online booking itself is exclusionary (my dad would have never been able to book by himself).

What I liked about this project was that it was shared with the community to be used, many people built on top of it, fixed bugs and made it better (someone could have kept the tool for themselves and this would have never been addressed).

Cheers for the mindset to serve the community. I have seen people get a slot with this tool who never would have gotten one manually.

Stay safe!

Note: I would request the owner of this repo to pin this so that people could read the positive intentions behind this project.

Few of the hospitals offer their slots early in the morning for the same day. The current script starts looking for slots from tomorrow, so we will need to change "check_calendar_by_district" and "check_calendar_by_pincode" to "today" instead of "tomorrow".

Great job - however, the slot booking mechanism looking at just next 7 days, is quite Kerala specific. In other states, they are opening up slots for 10 days or more at once. We need to give users an option on how many days they want to look for

Edit: I see the 7 days is coming from the API limitations - perhaps a begin date argument?

Due to heavy load sometimes the API used for fetching the slots availability returns no response. As a result the exe program gets exited with beep saying NoneType cannot be iterated.

User have to start whole script again.

Most of us here might have seen his work on Cowin captcha decoding in JS. I am not JS dev so can any JS dev explain what he is doing I am pasting below the code he used in the extension. I have Opened this issue here as its an active communityand also in his repo no one is answering anything.

A condition arises where "preferred vaccine choice" is not offered anymore. When a appointment was cancelled (in this case it was auto cancelled by the system - appears to be some internal error), the beneficiary details list the vaccine name even though status indicates "Not Vaccinated". (snipped below) This leads to a condition where the program does not offer the choice of vaccination anymore and the vaccine (COVISHIELD in below snip) is chosen by default.

Simple workaround was to save as json and edit out the vaccine and preference details from the json and rerun.

An enhancement could be considered in automatically choosing the vaccine only if status is "Partially Vaccinated"

beneficiary_dtls : +-------+----------------+---------------------------------+-----------+-------+----------------+ | idx | bref_id | name | vaccine | age | status | +=======+================+=================================+===========+=======+================+ | 1 | xxxxxxx | John | COVISHIELD | nn | Not Vaccinated | +-------+----------------+---------------------------------+-----------+-------+----------------+ | 2 | xxxxxxx | Snow .. | COVISHIELD | nn | Not Vaccinated | +-------+----------------+---------------------------------+-----------+-------+----------------+

Hey buddy! Thanks a lot for your code, it's very helpful. I'm trying to understand if the code works for people who have already booked an appointment, but couldn't get vaccinated (technical issues in cowin sent me to non-functional vaccination centres, TWICE!). Would the code be able to re-schedule for people who already have a back-dated appointment?

If not, could you give me a hint as to what part of the code I could modify to make it work?

After about 19 minutes when the code is running and giving me list of centers - it throws an issue Token is INVALID.. Next update in 1 seconds. OR press 'Ctrl + C' to refresh now.. Try for a new Token? (y/n Default y): Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\ZT258SH\Downloads\Python vaccine simulation\covid-vaccine-booking-main\src\covid-vaccine-slot-booking.py", line 114, in main() File "C:\Users\ZT258SH\Downloads\Python vaccine simulation\covid-vaccine-booking-main\src\covid-vaccine-slot-booking.py", line 97, in main tryOTP = input('Try for a new Token? (y/n Default y): ')

Kindly help

Looks like there are so many changes on cowin website on daily basis.

1. You can only book slot for one person irrespective of how many members are added.
2. No need of captcha.
3. New centre does not show on website.

Not sure if anyone will making any changes accordingly.

Check if session['min_age_limit'] is 18. If 18, append to options only if min_age_booking is 44 or lower. if not 18, append to options since its filtered already

Not the most efficient way to do it, but it should work
