Order Dominos Pizza via Command Line

Written by: Alan Parekh at 5:11 am. Filed under Computer Hacks, Crazy Hacks, Digg, What Were They Thinking

Why go to all the trouble of dialing the phone to order a pizza. Now you can Order Dominos Pizza via Command Line. Looks like this can’t work here in Canada though. :( I think it would be cool to setup a crontab to automatically order a pizza for you on a schedule. I can just imagine when this catches on and you call to ask a question about available toppings, they will suggest you have a look at the man page.

"Pizza Party is a free text based software package for ordering pizza, or for throwing pizza parties. Pizza Party has many features to make ordering pizza easy:

Can order pizza with only a few keystrokes.
Can save pizza preferences.
Can use batch files for ordering many pizzas.
Has easy to use flags for ordering different toppings.
Runs on most UNIX-like operating systems.
Supports most currently popular topings like "mushrooms", and "pepperoni"!
Unattended / background operation.
Pizza Party is distributed under the GNU General Public License."

this is cool and all, I guess if you were stuck at a unix console all day it would be helpful, but anyone with a web browser can just go to domino’s web page and place an order, and use their cupons…. still cool though.
