soss-cli v0.1.5

Query California hydrogen station status from the CLI!

(The tables will render correctly in your terminal if emojis are correctly configured).

soss-cli

• 🤔 Query the CAFCP's Station Operational Status System (SOSS) from the command line

• 🛰️ Use geolocation to locate nearest stations

• ⛳ Query stations near point of interest

Installation

You need npm or yarn installed. On macos, install homebrew and run brew install npm, on Debian-flavored Linux, run sudo apt-get install npm.

Then, install globally using npm or yarn:

# With npm
npm install -g soss-cli

# With yarn
yarn global add soss-cli

The soss command will now be available.

Querying

Running without parameters will automatically print help.

soss nearest

Will output a list of stations nearby. If you are running macos, CoreLocation will be used to locate you, otherwise we fallback to IP-based geolocation.
