MMM-PublicTransportBerlin - Public transport for Berlin and Brandenburg (departures)

Photon2000

Hi all,
good news for Pi Zero users:
The new image “Raspbian Jessie with PIXEL” comes bundled with the chromium browser. I’ve installed it tonight and chromium works on the Pi Zero (W). If I connect to a serveronly installation of MagicMirror the “ES6-problematic” modules (im my case: compliments, MMM-PublicTransportBerlin) comes up.

It’s not that fluently; CPU is 100% but it work’s.

I did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade recently, so it has to be the latest version

Jay

Does anybody have a working stationID in order to test the module itself, so others can verify if the module is working?

@Jay
There is an ID mentioned in the readme

Jay

@done
the station ID in the readme of Berlin-Alexanderplatz indicates a “There are currently no departures.” message.
I think the readme is a bit deprecated, the modulename had to be reconfigered in the config as well.
All I need to know is, where can I get a list with the stationIDs? As I posted above, my source could be wrong for this task.
Any experience?

@Jay
Have you checked “How to get the stationId” in the readme?

I have no installation right now. Otherwise you could have my ID.
But as far as I remember it was pretty easy to get an id.
If it’s missing station names:

Zoologischer Garten
Osloer Straße
Ostkreuz
Westkreuz

Hope this helps.

Hey @Jay,
what did you have to change for the module name in the config?! o_O
I didn’t make any changes according this…

You can get valid station IDs via an easy cURL command as mentioned in the readme like this (you can do it from the mirror’s command line):

curl 'https://transport.rest/stations?query=alexanderplatz'

You just have to switch ‘alexanderplatz’ with your nearest station. This command will return all station fitting the search term.

After the recent update from olexs (2-3 days ago), the module works like a charm.

Beh

Okay, I think there’s a misunderstanding here.

To make things clear for the future:
The Module from @olexs MMM-PublicTransportDB is not really the same as my MMM-PublicTransportBerlin. Olexs made some changes on the original module to use the data from DB (Deutsche Bahn) while my module is just using the data from VBB (Verkehrsverbund Berlin-Brandenburg).

I think this could be the reason why the stationIds you used did not work @Jay. Since you used a stationId from VBB for DB data. I didn’t test this but maybe @olexs can make a statement to this?
