Looks good. have you thought about integrating it into the live departure boards?

I have some python code I wrote to retrieve the live deapture boards info for both London tube and UK rail. It's probably not very well written as it's the first python thing I've ever done - but you're welcome to it if it helps the project.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] TRAVELAPP providing status/routing/map viewer
 

thanks wizbowes.
would be nice to have access to API's with live departure info.
Not sure if its so relevant for underground trains but certainly helps for national rail.
Do you know of any web api's that provide national rail routing in XML/HTML/JSON/whatever ouput ?

Im looking to integrate even bus/air travel into this, for UK or other popular places on request here, some members from canada have sent me links which seems easy to integrate but I need to know if the websites are open to queries from apps.

cheers

Re: [ANNOUNCE] TRAVELAPP providing status/routing/map viewer
 

There's an API for national rail described here:



However I don't think it contains any route information - Not at all sure how you'd get that - the documentation doesn't really make it very clear..

Re: [ANNOUNCE] TRAVELAPP providing status/routing/map viewer
 

travelapp-0.1-3 has a minor update.
the routing data display window has been changed to a webkit window to display it as a html file .
kinetic scrolling now works in the webkit window which didnt earlier which was why I hadnt used it and had resorted to a simple text window.

I just posted about the need (!?) for a bus stop info app for Singapore (where the N900 is not yet available...).

Format of the data can be found here:

Re: [ANNOUNCE] TRAVELAPP providing status/routing/map viewer
 

seems like only 1 of the 2 api's are working
http://sbsnextbus.appspot.com/api/v1/<busstopnumber> works while
http://sbsnextbus.appspot.com/api/v1/<busstopnumber>/<service>/
didnt. I just tried the examples posted there.

Also , is there some place to get the list of stops and services, would be better to have a drop down instead of making the user type it.

cheers

Hi,

Maybe you forgot the '/' at the end of the second one? I did the first time I tried, but when it is added it works.

I'll see if I can find a list of bus stops with their respective numbers, prefereably as an API.

List of road names and bus stops:

Or something from this one:

Or this:

In case you're not familiar with Singapore roads, Orchard Road is a good one to test with.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] TRAVELAPP providing status/routing/map viewer
 

Due to the requests there are and my lack of time ( since im on a full time job :) )
I would appreciate if you could attach in text format the list of stations and bus services that I need to have in a drop down fashion input. The http query I need to do with the station and service you have already provided me.
It would make things easier for me to update the app.

thanks for understanding.
