This is a node.js application that "hacks" your Amazon Dash Button to order you a Domino's pizza! I was inspired by this article by Edward Bensen. I am using a few npm modules to listen for the button press and place the order: RIAEvangelist's dominos and also hortinstein's Node-Dash-Button.

One idea would be to have this always running via a local server such as a Raspberry Pi and have on demand pizza ordering whenever you just need a pizza!

I wrote a blog post about my experience here on Medium!

Requirements

pcap If you are running ubuntu you will need to run sudo apt-get install libpcap0.8-dev

Contributing

  1. Pull or Fork code.
  2. Do cool stuff.
  3. Submit a PR.

Setup/Run

  1. Run npm install the first time so all npm requirements will be installed.
  2. Find Closest Store
  • Run node findStore.js and input your 5 digit zipcode, this will return closest store info (Store ID) and their menu.
  1. Find Dash Button
  • Run sudo node node_modules/node-dash-button/bin/findbutton and press the button
  1. Edit the app.js file.
  • Add your store from step 2
  • Edit your address and personal/customer information
  • Edit your order using menu from step 2
  • Add credit card information
  1. Create your .env environmental variable file
  • Add your Amazon Dash Button's address from step 3
  • You can add as much personal information from Step 4 into this file as you want if it makes you more comfortable, just would require some logic changes in the app.js file.
  1. Runnpm start and press your Dash Button that you have set up and BAM pizza will be coming soon!

Always Running

This article shows you what you can do with a Raspberry Pi to set this up as a node server running all the time on your network and it literally would be the press of a button whenever you wanted!

To do

  • Smooth things out and make a setup script for first time users that will create an .env file automatically for them
  • Other ideas?
