# cabi cli

command line dock status for Capital Bikeshare or other GBFS bikeshare systems

# about

Check to see if there are bikes and docks near your computer without leaving the command line. 

This app does one thing. Much of it is nested and specific to GBFS and even DC. This app is a test case for future GBFS cache/sdk service for node.

# installation

`$ npm install -g cabi-checker`

# configuring .cabirc

This app uses a `.cabirc` file in the user home directory. The file contains the location from which to search.

Get your location however you'd like. I used the compass app on my phone and copied the text through the notes app. Edit `.cabirc` in your user home directory.
