Dashticz - Module - Public Transport

[robgeerts]

First of all, thanks to @ultrara1n who started to build this module just the way the calendar- and trashmodule is coded too
In latest beta it is possible to show the timetable of the public transport company VVS (Germany) AND NS (Netherlands) with live data.

VVS:
To call the function properly, you will need the correct station id from: https://efa-api.asw.io/api/v1/station/
So for Stuttgart Central Station the station id is 5006118

Then add this to config.js:

Code: Select all

var publictransport = {}
publictransport.hbf= { show_via: true, station: '5006118', title:'Trains', show_lastupdate:true, provider: 'VVS', icon: 'train', interval: 15, results: 5 };

9292.nl:
First get the station id from http://api.9292.nl/0.1/locations?lang=nl-NL&q=eindhoven
(Change eindhoven to your own search parameter).
Then copy the id!

Code: Select all

//example station id: station-eindhoven
var publictransport = {}
publictransport.ovinfo= { show_via: true, station: 'station-eindhoven', title:'OV Info', show_lastupdate:true, provider: '9292', icon: 'train', results: 5 };
publictransport.ovinfotrain= { show_via: true, station: 'station-eindhoven', title:'Bus', show_lastupdate:true, provider: '9292-bus', icon: 'bus', results: 5 };
publictransport.ovinfobus= { show_via: true, station: 'station-eindhoven', title:'Trein', show_lastupdate:true, provider: '9292-train', icon: 'train', results: 5 };

Mobiliteit.lu:
To call the function properly, you will need the correct station name, for example:
Luxembourg/Centre, Royal

Then add this to config.js:

Code: Select all

var publictransport = {}
publictransport.ovinfobus = { key:'ovinfobus', show_via: false, station: 'Luxembourg/Centre, Royal', provider: 'mobiliteit',title:'Royal Stop',show_lastupdate:true, icon: 'bus', width:6,  results: 4}

icon is simply font-awesome without fa, interval = time in seconds for refreshing the data, and results = number of shown results. Also possible is to customize the width, but i would not change the value of 12 because of the size of the output.

If anyone can provide JSON-output from other transport companies, please send me a message and I will add these!

In latest beta, NS is working too!

Thanks again. I don't really need it, but it's good to see it can be placed

Don't know if you can use this, but this is a dataset of RET Rotterdam.

http://rotterdamopendata.nl/dataset/ret

There are more API's to be found from parking garages in Rotterdam (and maybe even other cities)

real nice, Dashticz is getting better and better, I have the stations I need.
Will there be a possibility for title? ( For I have multiple stations in view)
And is the bus also coming ??

Rob , keep up the good work.

[robgeerts]

I was already looking into a timetable for buses.
I could use the 9292.nl-API..

[robgeerts]

Check latest beta
And first post of this topic for the configuration

[qwerk]

that was quick ( as always)
do you use the word "station" in the script?
I would like to use the nearest busstop,

normally you would give station-village station-arnhem
but now I would like to be able to http://9292.nl/andelst/bushalte-wilhelminastraat

Is that do-able?

goodluck.....

[robgeerts]

Yes, use:

Code: Select all

var publictransport = {}
publictransport.ovinfobus= { station: 'andelst/bushalte-wilhelminastraat', provider: '9292-bus', icon: 'bus', results: 5 };

[qwerk]

I get nothing anymore ( transportation) herokuapp issues?
exception
:
{type: "System.Web.HttpException", message: "Not Found"}
message
:
"Not Found"
type
:
"System.Web.HttpException"

[robgeerts]

Will there be a possibility for title? ( For I have multiple stations in view)

Title now possible (see startpost for example config)
Download latest beta!

Hi rob, with some of your last update multiple stations did not work correctly in showing the time at the 5 results. First station looks fine, second and more station only the last result is correct. 1-4 results are not updated. Can You check this please?

[qwerk]

My bus and train stations all look fine and are updated.

[robgeerts]

Mine are updated too..

[blacksn0w]

What are about the "loading..." text, why not updating it silent in the background instead of creating this visual distraction?

[vgr2]

That's my. Only first station is ok.

[robgeerts]

Could you send me your config?

[vgr2]

I had send you my config by PN

[robgeerts]

I had send you my config by PN

Thansk, could you test latest beta version?

What are about the "loading..." text, why not updating it silent in the background instead of creating this visual distraction?

Fixed in latest beta version!

Idea for a configurable feature for this module:
How about making it possible to exclude results between the current time and the first departure time listed?

For instance: I have added my local trainstation near my house. It takes at least 15 minutes from my house to get there. It would be nice to be able to exclude results that show the trains leaving from the current time +15 minutes.

If I don't have this feature I have to make my list really long

[vgr2]

Now it's perfect,

Is there a possibility for me to change the font size?
