MMM-PublicTransportHafas – Public transport information for all stations known to Deutsche Bahn

[Klinge]

Hi,
unfortunately I have some problems with the module. When my MM started, the module will not be loaded. There is only the message “Loading…”. Other modules will be loaded.

I configured the module as follows.

{
  module: "MMM-PublicTransportHafas",
  position: "bottom_left",
 
  config: {
    stationID: "008000152",                   // Replace with your stationID!
    stationName: "Hannover Hbf",   // Replace with your station name!
 
    direction: "",                    // Show only departures heading to this station. (A station ID.)
    ignoredLines: [],                 // Which lines should be ignored? (comma-separated list of line names)
    excludedTransportationTypes: [],  // Which transportation types should not be shown on the mirror? (comma-separated list of types) possible values: StN for tram, BuN for bus, s for suburban
    timeToStation: 10,                // How long do you need to walk to the next Station?
    timeToStation: 60,
    timeInFuture: 10,                 // Show departures for the next *timeInFuture* minutes.

    showColoredLineSymbols: false,     // Want colored line symbols?
    useColorForRealtimeInfo: true,    // Want colored real time information (timeToStation, early)?
    showTableHeadersAsSymbols: true,  // Table Headers as symbols or text?
    maxUnreachableDepartures: 3,      // How many unreachable departures should be shown?
    maxReachableDepartures: 7,        // How many reachable departures should be shown?
    customLineStyles: "leipzig",      // Prefix for the name of the custom css file. ex: Leipzig-lines.css (case sensitive)
    showOnlyLineNumbers: false        // Display only the line number instead of the complete name, i. e. "11" instead of "STR 11"
  }
},

I would be really grateful, if you could help me.

Thank you.

@Klinge The problem lies in your settings. First you listed timeToStation twice. The last setting will apply which is 60. Next you state that you only want to see departures within the next 10 minutes (timeInFuture). That will lead to only unreachable departures. Of course it is a bug that the module crashes. I will fix that with the next update.

But for now you can bring your mirror to work if you set timeInFuture to a higher value. Maybe you should use 60. That way the module has enough departures to choose from.

Damn it! So a Layer 8 problem ;-) Now it works. Thank you, for your quick help.

[raywo]

@Klinge There is now also an update available which will prevent this “layer 8 problem“. ;)

@raywo In my config i set maxUnreachableDepartures: 2,, timeToStation: 15, and timeInFuture: 90, . This morning (8:00 o’clock) there were two trains within maxUnreachableDepartures. 7:54 +0, and 8:05 +2. I think the 7:54 shouldn’t be there. Yes, the train is unreachable (15), but he is gone already :).

@raywo
Thank you. Now it can be configured by someone like me ;-)

[pinsdorf]

Thanks, @raywo Works like a charm. Well done also w.r.t documentation, the convenience script for retrieving stationID, and customization! Awesome work.

[Iseknutz]

@raywo Thank you for the module! It works great. Since I used the MMM-PublicTransportDB and there I had some issues with delay-calculation and excluding from busses. But here everything is working fine. Thanks a lot!

[onkelbobby]

Thanks also from my side… this is exact the module I was looking for. Is there a way to change the “STR” into “Tram”? Thanks for your help.

[raywo]

@onkelbobby If your mirror displays "STR" your transport provider sends it that way.

One way to suppress that would be to set the option showOnlyLineNumbers to true and providing a custom css file with a rule like so:

.str11:before {
  content: "Tram ";
}

[onkelbobby]

@raywo said in MMM-PublicTransportHafas – Public transport information for all stations known to Deutsche Bahn:

.str11:before {
content: "Tram ";
}

works perfectly…
thank you for the prompt support :-)

Hi there,
while configuring this awsome module another question came up. is there an way to get rid of the city name being displayed behind the final destination of e.g. the bus? In my configuration I want to remove “München”.

Thanks in advance…

[raywo]

@onkelbobby I’ve made an update to the module. It is now possible to provide key-value pair which are used to replace strings in the displayed directions. Use the option replaceInDirections. For more information see the documentation.

[onkelbobby]

@raywo Thank’s… best support ever :-)

@raywo
Thanks for this great module
Today here in munich we had absolutly chaos with regards to the “sbahn” here.
I was wondering that the modules displays me…everything is ok.

So i have been checking the stations from Start Starnberg to End Munich.
But in the morning (and also till now) the end will be never reached by “sbahn” because of big problems.
Isnt there a possibilty to check if there are some problems by the choosen start-to-end connection?

Thanks a lot

@raywo Great Looking module, very professional!

[raywo]

@Vauxdvihl Unfortunately I can’t do anything about this. Obviously MVG or DB didn’t update their data accordingly.

[jimjay203]

Hey @raywo, is this module able to show cancelled trains?

[raywo]

@jimjay203 Actually I don’t know. But I know for sure that the module displays just the data which are given to the HAFAS system. If your provider delivers such information then it would be possible to display them.

[jimjay203]

The NordWestBahn seems to share this information with Deutsche Bahn, because the DB-Navigator App on my iPhone shows all cancelled trains. I guess i have to wait and see…
Is there anyone, who ever saw a train marked as cancelled?
