npm startThe ./output directory will save a picture of the appointment confirmation page and a JSON file with appointment info. Check your email inbox (and spam folder) for the appointment confirmation.
- No verification is made of successful booking. If you click submit, you'll get a 'Success!!!' but double check the booking in the case of bad form inputs.
- There is a Captcha service that can be triggered, which is not handled.
Two services are available (Anmeldung and Change of Passport for EU Blue Card), and this project can be easily extended to include other services' appointments by adding service names and numbers to ./constants.json.
If you're planning to contribute to the project, install dev dependencies and use eslint and prettier for linting and formatting, respectively.
npm i --include=dev
npx eslint --fix index.js # caution: this will modify index.js in place
npx prettier -w index.js # caution: this will modify index.js in place
