GoCamp

Unofficial Python wrapper for the web API at https://washington.goingtocamp.com

Structure

models.py: core datastructures

app.py: routines for listing camps and finding site availability

console.py: barebones command-line example (runnable)

setup.py: added to allow for installation via pip

Purpose

The web interface at washington.goingtocamp.com has several bugs and search limitations, very high latency, and no programmatic access.

Developers wishing to create searches for more complex queries (e.g. "all weekends in June at these specific campgrounds"), build higher-level tools/scripts, or simply search without interacting with a website are encouraged to make use of and contribute to this library.

Limitations

Reservations cannot be created using this tool. Instead, a convenience method is provided to link directly to the reservations website, with the search results prefilled.

Contributing

This library is in its infancy, and as it uses an unofficial API, is expected to be brittle. PRs to keep up with additions and changes to the API, and to extend the functionality with improved and higher-level searches, are enthusiastically welcomed.
