@Dicous
Did you install (git clone) the module into the right folder ~/MagicMirror/modules/ ? Did you also run npm install in the new subfolder ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PublicTransportBerlin ?

[Dicous]

yes. i did:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/default $ git clone https://github.com/deg0nz/MMM-PublicTransportBerlin.git

No, you did not. You are in ~/MagicMirror/modules/default and not ~/MagicMirror/modules. Modules in default won’t be executed, the default area is “protected”.

Thank You.
I am still a Noob
You made my day

@Beh This is correct. Station IDs are different between DB and BVG networks (and others, such as my local RMV), and I haven’t yet added a proper error message for “wrong” IDs, instead it fails silently. Getting DB IDs is a bit of a pain, too, I’m working on a small public interface for that. I’ll open a separate thread for the fork.

While I’m here: thanks a lot for your work! Without your code, my module would never exist. I’ve put an attribution in the readme, if you want it higher up just say a word :)

@olexs
You’re very welcome :smile:
I’m happy that someone had use for it, so the code is not useless :) I already noticed the attribution in the readme and appreciated it ;) Thanks a lot

hey guys,
i am still a noob. please be patient with me :)

i dont know how to get the station id. obviously i dont understand the api-documentation. can you please help me with this?

i have already installed the mmm-publictransportberlin module and the vbb-rest from github. but now i dont get on.

greets

@pauabaer you have to open a terminal and execute the command curl 'https://transport.rest/stations?query=alexanderplatz' replace alexanderplatz with your station name or part of it. then your response will look like this

{"type":"station","relevance":1.0161290322580645,"id":"900000100003","name":"S+U Alexanderplatz","tokens":["sbahn","ubahn","alexanderplatz","bahnhof","berlin"]}
{"type":"station","relevance":1.0119047619047619,"id":"900000100006","name":"S+U Alexanderplatz/Grunerstr.","tokens":["sbahn","ubahn","alexanderplatz","bahnhof","gruner","strasse","berlin"]}
{"type":"station","relevance":1.015625,"id":"900000100005","name":"U Alexanderplatz [Tram]","tokens":["ubahn","alexanderplatz","berlin","tram"]}
...

so if you want to use the station S+U Alexanderplatz/Grunerstr. you have to use the id 900000100006

@strawberry-3-141
thanks! worked fine. Now i have a new question. is it possible to hide a line on a station instead of the whole station?

[strawberry 3.141]

@pauabaer I’m not sure if that is possible as no config option looks like that it handles this case.

But if it is e.g. a bus line and you want just display trams and subways you can exclude bus with excludedTransportationTypes
