Small tool to check for campsite availability and notify via text message using Twilio.
▶ find-campsites --help
Usage: find-campsites [OPTIONS]
Search for campsite availability from recreation.gov or reservecalifornia.
Note: for `reservecalifornia`, campground argument must refer to the
facility ID of the campsite. This is tricky to get from the website, so
try using this tool but enter the park you are interested in as the
campground. This should return a table of campsites and their associated
facility ID.
Examples:
# Search for Kirby Cove and Hawk Campground for Friday or Saturday availability
# this month
find-campsites -c "Kirby Cove" -c "Hawk Campground" -d Friday -d Saturday
# Search for facility IDs in Millerton Lake SRA
find-campsites -c "Millerton Lake SRA" --api reservecalifornia
# Search for specific campsite in Millerton Lake SRA
find-campsites -c 1120 --api reservecalifornia
