DVB 2.3.0

🚆DVB

This is an unofficial Swift package giving you a few options to query Dresden’s public transport system for current bus- and tramstop data.

Want something like this for another language, look no further 🙂

Example

Have a look at the example iOS app.

Installation

DVB is available through Cocoapods, Carthage/Punic and Swift Package Manager, take your pick.

// Cocoapods
pod 'DVB'

// Carthage
github "kiliankoe/DVB"

// Swift Package Manager
.Package(url: "https://github.com/kiliankoe/DVB", majorVersion: 2)

Quick Start

Be sure to check the docs for more detailed information on how to use this library, but here are some quick examples for getting started right away.

Caveat: Stops are always represented by their ID. You can get a stop’s ID via Stop.find(). Some of the methods listed below offer convenience overloads, which are listed here since they look nicer. The downside to these is that they have to send of a find request for every stop first resulting in a significant overhead. Should you already have a stop’s ID at hand I strongly suggest you use that instead.

Monitor a single stop

Monitor a single stop to see every bus, tram or whatever leaving this stop. The necessary stop id can be found by using the find() function.

// See caveat above
Departure.monitor(stopWithName: "Postplatz") { result in
    guard let response = result.success else { return }
    print(response.departures)
}

Find a specific stop

Say you’re looking for “Helmholtzstraße”. You can use the following to find a list of matches.

Stop.find("Helmholtzstraße") { result in
    guard let response = result.success else { return }
    print(response.stops)
}

Find a route from A to B

Want to go somewhere?

// See caveat above
Trip.find(from: "Albertplatz", to: "Hauptbahnhof") { result in
    guard let response = result.success else { return }
    print(response.routes)
}

Look up current route changes

Want to see if your favorite lines are currently being re-routed due to construction or some other reason? Check the published list of route changes.

RouteChange.get { result in
    guard let response = result.success else { return }
    print(response.lines)
    print(response.changes)
}

Lines running at a specific stop

Looking to find which lines service a specific stop? There’s a func for that.

// See caveat above
Line.get(forStopName: "Postplatz") { result in
    guard let response = result.success else { return }
    print(response.lines)
}
