MMM-Rejseplanen - A departure board for Danish train and bus stations


  • Hi,

    This is my first module
    A departure board for Danish train and bus stations.

    I’m programming in PowerShell at work, so I thought how hard can it be to learn Javascript?

    Boy! I was wrong!😆

    That language has a syntax that is hysterical

    Well, with one hand in my hair (which is not too much of) and the other hand on the keyboard, some prayers to God, a large amount of coffee and coke a lot of Google search as well as even more useful inspiration from all the skilled programmers and the user of this forum. I has succeeded in making a useful piece of code.

    And, is finally stable.😜

    Description:

    Train and bus departure board for Danish stations (InterCity, LYN, REG, S-Tog, BUS, EXB (Express Buss), NB (Night bus), Telebus, Ferry and Metro)

    Monitoring your favorite local departure station, with the next 20 departure for the destination. The data are from the Danish Findrejsen.dk API

    Hey! I found your module and its really close to what I’m after! I’d like to be able to see when the next Metro train is leaving from a certain station, and in which direction its going (end station). Basically what you can see shown here: http://intl.m.dk/#!/stations/stationer/noerreport The information apparently is sourced from Rejseplanen so I would assume the API would cover it.

    If you have any hints on where to get started I’d be happy to hear them, I’ve got some basic experience with JavaScript but thought that you would be the best person to ask 🙂

    Trying the new version, I’m not sure I’m configuring the options correctly?

    If I only want to show Metro, I choose “M” under vehicle, but somehow all transport modes are still shown in the Mirror frontend. Secondly, the Metro stops don’t seem to be available in your list, and I assume that is due to the API lacking them? Is there anyway around this?

    Should it look something like this

                    {
                module: 'MMM-Rejseplanen',
                position: 'top_left',
                header: 'Rejseplanen.dk',
                        config: {
                                stationID: "?",
                                stationName: "Forum",
                                vehicle: "M",
                                destfilter: ""
                        }
                },

    I’d really appreciate any help you could provide!

    The “hidden” features are in the destfilter:
    Try the following,
    Should give you all the Metro trains

    		{
	module: 'MMM-Rejseplanen',
	position: 'top_left',
	header: 'Rejseplanen.dk',
		config: {
			stationID: "8600646",
			stationName: "Nørreport",
			vehicle: "T",
			destfilter: "Metro"
		}
	},

    Or you can get all trains in one direction

    		{
	module: 'MMM-Rejseplanen',
	position: 'top_left',
	header: 'Rejseplanen.dk',
		config: {
			stationID: "8600646",
			stationName: "Nørreport",
			vehicle: "T",
			destfilter: "Vanløse"
		}
	},

    It was the easiest way to solve this, as well as the most flexible. Only require about 8 lines of code.

    And I’m a lazy man. So less code is really nice

    Is there any way to only get the next 5 or 10 departures instead of 20?

  • @kurios said in MMM-Rejseplanen - A departure board for Danish train and bus stations:

    departures

    You can now configure the number of returned departures in the new updated version 1.2.0. Between 1 and 20 as max.
