Timetable Kit
*************Timetable Kit (timetable_kit) is a Python toolkit for generating human-readable timetables from `General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) ` data.
The user provides a "prototype" timetable in CSV form (with stations/stops along the left column and train numbers/trip numbers along the top row), along with a TOML file specifying options. Then timetable_kit fills in the times and other info (from GTFS) and produces either HTML & CSS, PDF, or a plaintext CSV file.
Development status
==================
Timetable_kit remains under active development.
It is quite usable to create Amtrak timetables and VIA Rail Canada timetables.It has not yet been generalized to create timetables in general.
Interfaces are moderately stable. New options continue to be added in spec files.
Command line options remain in a state of flux.
The interface will change as needs are discovered while creating particular timetables.Directory Structure
===================
In keeping with the universal, if bizarre, Python package source directory structure,
the entire package is in a subdirectory called timetable_kit.The only exceptions are HOWTO, certain build files, this file, and LICENSE.
In particular, data resources and documentation are largely inside the package directory at
this time. This may change.Dependencies
============
Timetable Kit requires Python 3.11, because it uses "Self."
Even if you removed those, it requires Python 3.10, because it uses the match/case statement,
and it uses it very, very intensively.It relies on `GTFS Kit ` to parse GTFS.
Like GTFS Kit, it uses `PANDAS ` to do the heavy lifting.
It was most recently tested with PANDAS 2.1.4.Timetable Kit also requires the jinja2 package. Jinja2 templates are used extensively.
It uses Weasyprint to convert HTML timetables to PDF timetables.
It uses tomlkit to read & write the TOML files.
It uses xdg-base-dirs to find out where to store its data.
One of the tools uses the LXML module to parse Amtrak's station web pages.
It's packaged as a package with Poetry, so presumably requires Poetry to install.
Further Documentation
=====================
Look in the HOWTO file for information on setting this up as an editable module.
Look in the timetable_kit folder for the README.rst there for further info on using the program.Authors
