ImpfChecker

Basic checker for Bavaria's booking portal for vaccination appointments. Checks the portal for the first available appointment and prints it.

Requirements

  • You need to be registered with the vaccination portal
  • You need to have selected a vaccination centre in the portal
  • Python 3

How to run

Install the dependencies

Just run

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the checker

The checker requires your username, password, and citizen ID. You can find your citizen ID if you log in to the portal and select the person. The address bar in your browser contains the ID in the following format: https://impfzentren.bayern/citizen/overview/{CITIZEN_ID}.

By default, it searches for the earliest available appointment for a boost dose with any available vaccine. You can customise this with the options described below.

Minimal example to find the next available appointment:

python impf.py --citizen-id=AAAAAAAA-0000-0000-0000-AAAAAAAAAAAA [email protected] --password=my_password

You can additionally pass --earliest-day with the earliest acceptable date, which restricts the search to appointments after that date:

python impf.py --citizen-id=AAAAAAAA-0000-0000-0000-AAAAAAAAAAAA [email protected] --password=my_password --earliest-day=2021-12-24

Full help:

$ python impf.py -h                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Py byImpf 14:25:01

Vaccine IDs

If you're looking for an appointment for the second vaccination, you need to specify the vaccine that was used for the first jab. In addition to --dose=second, add --first-vaccine-id according to the following table. E.g., --first-vaccine-id=002 if the first jab was BioNTech/Pfizer.

Vaccine ID
Vaxzevria/AstraZeneca 001
Comirnaty (BioN-Tech/Pfizer) 002
Moderna COVID19 Vaccine 003
COVID-19 Vaccine Janssen 005
Nuvaxovid 006
Valneva 008
Comirnaty Original/Omicron BA.1 (BioNTech/Pfizer) 009
Spikevax 0 (Zero)/O (Omicron) (Moderna) 010
Comirnaty Original/Omicron BA.4-5 (BioNTech/Pfizer) 011

Notifications

The checker can send a notification to an ntfy.sh topic. Use the --ntfy-topic option to specify the topic name and subscribe to the notifications on your phone or on the web app.

Checking until successful

You can use the optional --interval option to tell the script to keep trying until it succeeds in finding (or booking if --book is also passed). For example, with --interval=60 an attempt is made every 60 seconds.

Running in Docker

Alternatively, you can run the checker in a Docker container, passing some or all of the arguments listed above:

docker run --rm ghcr.io/muffix/byimpf --citizen-id=AAAAAAAA-0000-0000-0000-AAAAAAAAAAAA [email protected] --password=my_password
