harbor-bot

Pickleball court reservation bot for Harbor Isles Tennis & Fitness Club.

Setup

1. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

2. Configure config.json with your settings (see Configuration section below).

Usage

# Show configuration and next trigger times
python harbor_bot.py --show-config

# Test login
python harbor_bot.py --test-login

# Run as daemon (recommended - runs continuously)
python harbor_bot.py --daemon

# Run daemon in live mode (actually makes reservations at scheduled times)
python harbor_bot.py --daemon --live

# Run once and check for reservations (one-shot mode)
python harbor_bot.py --run

# Test booking a specific court (dry run)
python harbor_bot.py --test-book Court_1 Saleh 2026-01-19 "19:00:00-08:00"

# Test booking a specific court (live - actually books!)
python harbor_bot.py --test-book Court_1 Saleh 2026-01-19 "19:00:00-08:00" --live

Daemon Mode

The recommended way to run the bot is in daemon mode (--daemon). It will:

1. Run continuously, checking for reservations every minute
2. Wait for the exact scheduled times in the ReservationBehavior before attempting
3. Automatically refresh authentication when needed
4. Track successful reservations to avoid duplicates

To run in production with auto-restart on crash, use a process manager like systemd:

# /etc/systemd/system/harbor-bot.service

WorkingDirectory=/path/to/harbor-bot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 harbor_bot.py --daemon --live

Then enable and start:

sudo systemctl enable harbor-bot
sudo systemctl start harbor-bot
sudo journalctl -u harbor-bot -f  # View logs
