Restaurant Booking

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

bash
export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Book reservations using Notte browser automation via Orthogonal.

API Method (curl)

# Start session
curl -X POST "https://api.orth.sh/v1/run" \

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "api": "notte",
    "path": "/sessions/start",
    "body": {
      "browser_type": "chromium",
      "headless": true,
      "solve_captchas": true,
      "idle_timeout_minutes": 10
    }
  }'

# Execute actions (same pattern)
curl -X POST "https://api.orth.sh/v1/run" \

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "api": "notte",
    "path": "/sessions/{session_id}/page/execute",
    "body": {"type":"goto","url":"https://www.opentable.com/..."}
  }'

Key Selectors (OpenTable)

Field Selector
First name input#firstName
Last name input#lastName
Email input#email
Phone input#phoneNumber
Terms checkbox text=I agree to the restaurant
Submit button:has-text('Complete reservation')
Time slots button:has-text('7:00 PM')
Seating select button:has-text('Select')

Finding Restaurant IDs

Search OpenTable and extract from URL:

  • restref=1906 → Foreign Cinema
  • Restaurant slug in URL path

Example URL format:

https://www.opentable.com/r/{restaurant-slug}?restref={id}&datetime={YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM}&covers={n}

Tips

  • OpenTable holds table for 5 minutes - move fast
  • Use fill action with value param (not type with text)
  • Click terms via label text, not checkbox directly
  • No credit card needed - reservations are free
  • Confirmation email sent automatically

Resy Alternative

If restaurant uses Resy:

https://resy.com/cities/{city}/venues/{restaurant}?date={YYYY-MM-DD}&seats={n}

Similar flow but different selectors. Scrape page first to identify form fields.

After Booking

  1. Create calendar event with gog calendar create
  2. Add attendees and location
  3. Include confirmation number in description
