MMM-ResRobot - Public transport information for Sweden

@Alvinger
Thanks for the response! But wouldn’t it be possible to use the (seldomly updated) time and subtract real time and still have an accurate “time left to departure”? I guess the table on screen would need to be updated more often than data is loaded.

Alvinger

@MobbareKurtZ
It all depends on the underlying ResRobot API but it sounds reasonable that ResRobot needs to know in what direction you are travelling.

As the module only shows departures there is no need to specify a destination unless you want to limit the displayed departures to the ones going in that specific direction. In that case I would suggest to enter not the ultimate destination but rather the next “logical” stop such as point of transit between modes of transport.

@Alvinger How can you add multiple departure locations though?

Alvinger

@MobbareKurtZ
By adding them as a comma-separated list, e.g.

from: "12345,12346,12347",
to: "54321,64321,74321"

where each from and to pair specify an id for the departure and destination stops. If destination is not needed for a departure station, simply leave it empty like this:

from: "12345,12346,12347",
to: "54321,,74321"

@Alvinger Alright thanks!

Is this still working? I’m getting “Fetching departures…” message forever :(

{
		module: "MMM-ResRobot",
		position: "bottom_left",

		config: {
			from: "740064518",		// ResRobot Station ID (or a comma-separated string of IDs)
			to: "740012366",			// ResRobot Station ID of destination (or a comma-separated string of IDs)
			skipMinutes: 0,		// Skip departures that happens within the next  minutes.
			maximumEntries: 6,	// Number of departures to show on screen
			truncateAfter: 5,	// A value > 0 will truncate direction name at first space after  characters. 0 = no truncation
			apiKey: "my api key"		// Your ResRobot apiKey
        }
    },

@Advokaten
Strange, my mirror is running flawlessly. I’ll put in your config and see what happens.

@Alvinger I reinstalled it, rebooted and stuff and it magically appeared! Thank you for this wonderful module! :D (I have no idea what was wrong lol)

@Alvinger I saw that the bus line I pull data from is misnamed. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

Alvinger

@Advokaten
Do you mean that the name of the bus stop is misnamed on screen? Then you have to contact ResRobot to change it.
