通过CURL登录Airbnb

Question

I am trying to do API calls to Airbnb, but you must be logged in to make these calls, and with no public API, I am left to try and come up with a solution.

I am first trying to login via CURL, I am trying to use this piece of code but I'm not having much luck.

$url = "https://www.airbnb.co.uk/login";
$postinfo = "email=".$username."&password=".$password;

$cookie_file_path = $path."/cookie.txt";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookie_file_path);
//for certain features, set the cookie the site has - this is optional
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, "cookiename=0");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT,
    "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 0);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postinfo);
curl_exec($ch);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
$html_data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $html_data;

The response I get is:

{
success: false,
redirect: ""
}

Where am I going wrong ( I have declared the vars, username, and password but have obviously left that out).

You can't login to Airbnb by curl because Airbnb uses google captcha which can't be resolved. This is why it returns success: false.

If you want to do something with their application you should try to go here and apply as partner in order to use their API.
