Dash - Python Client to browse DoorDash from your command line

Disclaimer: I'm a huge DoorDash fan and this is purely an activity out of curiosity. This is a work in progress and I half-expect it to fail for certain input.

Usage

Build the Dash.py using your credentials and follow steps to add items to your cart.

$ python Dash.py [email protected] frodobaggins

Why

Ever since moving to the Bay Area, DoorDash has found a loyal customer in me. It's always fun reverse-engineering REST APIs; I also wanted to understand how DoorDash interacts with the Internet. Door Dash encrypts its network traffic using SSL, but this is really easy to get around using a simple Man-in-the-middle attack.

Design

Have been meaning to learn Python since quite some time, this gives me an opportunity to do that. Since this is a Python library, this is meant to be used in CLI environments. The API is really really rough around the edges, though I have tried to handle failing conditions gracefully.
