Toronto TTC (public transit) Info
-
I’d like to build a module that uses the Toronto transit API to tell me when the next bus and streetcar are coming. They offer all the predicted arrival times via an API, here: http://www1.toronto.ca/wps/portal/contentonly?vgnextoid=4427790e6f21d210VgnVCM1000003dd60f89RCRD
I don’t expect someone to build this for me, but I would appreciate any info or guidelines about how to get started with this! Thank you :)

Hello, fellow torontionian. The github page has a module guide which would be a good place to start.
I’d be happy to test your module. -
Here is an excellent starting point :)
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/1786/module-template and here:
https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/tree/develop/modules
If you have any questions please ask… many people here would probably be happy to help!

this might also help / prevent you from even having to build a module

@onetwankyfive @cowboysdude - thank you so much! super super helpful and I definitely somehow missed that transport module when I was browsing through the already existing modules… I bet that will indeed prevent me from having to build something from scratch. Thank you!!

Not to necro an old topic, but was this module ever developed? I am moving to Toronto shortly and this would be a wonderful addition to my mirror. I can help build the module if it doesn’t exist.

@lakellie I just finished writing this specifically for TTC:
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/2632/mmm-myttc-toronto-transitMaybe it does what you need? If not, feel free to use it as a starting point to customize to be whatever you want it to be. I’d love to see how it evolves!
Have fun!
