idos-dashboard

What

Simple web app showing depeartures for your favourite public transport routes.

I've made this specifically to have departures on a Kindle e-ink display, hence the black and white scheme of it, as visible on this screenshot:

How

The API uses is the CRWS API, more info can be found here: https://crws.docs.apiary.io/

Unfortunately, since 2019 the CRWS API is no longer free for trial inside the Prague transit system, so you will need a valid userID from the API's owners to use this.

This app uses my idospy WIP wrapper as a submodule.

The backend uses Flask and simple HTML template with jinja2 as the templating system.

For the current weather, it uses the OpenWeatherMap API.

Requirements

• Flask, jinja2 (and their respective requirements)
• requests
• idospy
  • the idospy submodule additionally requires dataclass-wizard

Usage

1. Start from the example configuration file:

$ cp config.example.py config.py

2. Edit the config file to suit your favourite connections and add a valid userID to the Configuration class of config.py
3. Run the app
   • using your favourite WSGI-capable HTTP server.
   • alternatively, use the python3 app.py to run it using the development server
