uber-cli

The tool provides command‑line access to Uber’s rider API, allowing users to request time‑to‑pickup and price estimates without opening the mobile app. By supplying a pickup address, the `time` command returns the estimated wait time for nearby drivers; the `price` command, given start and end addresses, returns fare ranges for the requested trip.

It translates human‑readable addresses into geographic coordinates using the Google Maps Geocoding service, so users do not need to know exact lat/long values. The output is displayed directly in the terminal, enabling quick cost‑benefit decisions before launching the Uber app.

The package is distributed via npm, can be installed globally, and is marked as stable with a command‑line interface available on supported platforms. It is intended for users who prefer a lightweight, scriptable way to check Uber availability and pricing from the console.
