===============
Next Bus Bot
===============

A bot/ cli tool that simply gives you the waiting times for next buses at your favorite bus stop.

It works only for the IDFM/RATP Network, relying on the api ``lines/v4``. For now only a handfull of bus stops on the Plateau de Saclay are registered, but you can add your own

.. warning::

I am not responsible if you arrive late at your work.
For serious travel planning, use your favorite app.

Example
-------
::

$ nbb mdv
Next buses at Mare du Vivier:
- ⏰ 6 min. (12:29) 9️⃣ 🚍 ▶ Centre Commercial Ulis 2
- ⏰ 27 min. (12:50) 9️⃣ 🚍 ▶ Gare de Jouy en Josas
- ⏰ 35 min. (12:58) 9️⃣ 🚍 ▶ Centre Commercial Ulis 2
- ⏰ 53 min. (13:16) 9️⃣ 🚍 ▶ Christ de Saclay

[cli]
# Default parameters for the CLI
pretty = true # Emoji in the terminal
compact = false # More condensed output
verbose = false # More verbose output, only for debugging.

[stop.places]
# List of bus stops, with their name and their ID
# You can find the ID of a stop by looking at the URL of the stop on the IDFM website
# https://data.iledefrance-mobilites.fr/explore/dataset/zones-de-correspondance/custom/?disjunctive.zdctype

# The name of the step as a key does not matter,
# it should only be consistent between the stops, stops.aliases and stop.directions sections.
#
# The first stop defined is the default one.

[stop.aliases]
# Aliases for the stops defined in stop.places
"Mare du Vivier" = ["CEA Porte Sud", "Neurospin", "nsp", "mdv"]
"Moulon" = ["ens"]
"Raoul Dautry" = ["CEA Porte Est"]
"Place Marguerite Perey" = ["Inria"]

[stop.direction_filter]
# Direction filter for the stops defined in stop.places.

# For each stop you can filter the direction
"Mare du Vivier" = ["Gare du Guichet", "Centre Commercial Ulis 2"] # Only keep the buses that have either 'gare du guichet' or 'Centre commercial ulis2' as destination.
"Moulon" = ["Gare du Guichet", "Centre Commercial Ulis 2"] # Only keep the gare du guichet and Centre commercial ulis2
