      just a small reminder for those who want to have direction filtering. in berlin, there’s no machine-readable information about directions in the data that VBB provides.

      as an example, take U2:

      • in the west, it may end at ruhleben, theodor-heuss-platz
      • in the east, it may end at bülowstr, spittelmarkt, pankow

      this is without more complicated construction work.

      the best way to indicate a direction you want to get departures for is the next station after yours. @Beh we can try to implement this somehow, not sure wether in the API or in your magic mirror client.

        Hey @Tekki
        Unfortunately, I’m not really familiar with the changes, that @olexs made in his MMM-PublicTransportDB module, so I don’t really know, if your config is correct. You could open an issue on his GitHub repository with the same question again. Here it is:

          To @M1dn8 @gekberlin:
          As @derhuerst mentions, this feature can be implemented, but it is a bit of work… We can try this. If you have any programming skills, your contribution is more than welcome :)

          To @derhuerst:
          Do you think, that some other possible future services that use your API will likely use this feature? If so, I think it should be done in the API. If not, I can just throw away the entries that are not used. But as you said, determining the direction could be a bit tricky. So one would need to know the next station on the line, huh?

            Yeah, that would help me actually a lot. I could also use the db api, but unfortunately the real-time data are not really accurate for the bvg-trams.
            @beh Unfortunately I’m a realy beginner in the software devolopment, but I think i’m not the only one who would appreciate that future and maybe some of them can program

              On the API level, further discussion on this feature should be done at https://github.com/derhuerst/vbb-hafas/issues/19 .

                Hey guys, I have good news for you:

                Commit 8c5e69f in the GitHub repo implements the one direction feature feature via the directionStationId variable. You just enter the next station on your line for the direction you want the departures to be shown.

                Some words about that:

                After some tests, the data delivery of this feature seems not to be as reliable as the normal version. Also, please make sure you actually have the right stationId for the direction station.
                Additionally, more request results take more time for the request. So please make sure to keep your maxUnreachableDepartures and maxReachabledepartures low when using this feature.

                If you encounter any issues with that, please open an issue on GitHub.

                I also mentioned this in the readme. Thanks again to @derhuerst for implementing the feature in his service!

                  Hi,
                  this is a very nice module! One thing though: Is there a way to make the text stop scrolling from right to left, if it’s a realy long station name?

                    @Kleriker Yes, you can set the marqueeLongDirections option to false`.

                    It’s described in the “Configuration” section here: https://github.com/deg0nz/MMM-PublicTransportBerlin

                        this is an awesome module. Thank you for that!
                        Unfortunately, HVV does not support the API Key anymore.

                        Does anyone of you guys know a different way of getting the API key?

                        Thanks in advance :)
