Rapido Ride Booking

API integration for Rapido — India's largest bike taxi service.

Status (March 2026): Location search and geocoding work. Fare estimates and booking return encoded binary due to a protobuf schema change — a new HAR capture is needed to restore full functionality.

Working Features

Location Search

# Autocomplete
bun scripts/rapido.ts autocomplete --query "Horamavu"

# Geocode place ID to coordinates
bun scripts/rapido.ts geocode --place-id "ChIJ99zGooERrjsRzoxiOwCEUhQ"

Authentication Flow

1. Generate OTP — bun scripts/rapido.ts auth --mobile "9876543210"
2. Enter OTP when prompted — receives JWT token and userId
3. Use token — all authenticated requests need header x-consumer-username: {userId}:
