gtfs-to-fptf

Convert GTFS data to FPTF: library and CLI.

Work in progress. This software is not stable yet. See the to-do section.

Installation

CLI

npm install -g gtfs-to-fptf

Library

npm install --save gtfs-to-fptf

Usage

CLI

gtfs-to-fptf gtfs-directory fptf-directory

Library

toFPTF(gtfsDirectory, workingDirectory = null)

gtfsDirectory is the path to a directory containing .txt files, via the optional workingDirectory you can change where the scripts creates a temporary level db. Returns a Promise that will resolve in an object containing FPTF object streams.

Currently, the following GTFS files are supported:

• agency.txt required
• stops.txt required
• routes.txt required
• trips.txt required
• stop_times.txt required
• calendar.txt optional, required if calendar_dates.txt is not provided
• calendar_dates.txt optional, required if calendar.txt is not provided

const toFPTF = require('gtfs-to-fptf')
 
toFPTF('./bus-gtfs/')
.then((fptf) => {
    fptf.stations.pipe(someStream)
    fptf.schedules.pipe(someOtherStream)
})

The FPTF object contains the following streams:

• operators
• stops
• stations
• lines
• routes
• schedules

To do

• extended testing (there's probably still a lot of bugs)
• improve error handling
• dependency cleanup
• tests
