HVV Geofox Python Library


Code style: black
Hamburg
Open Issues
Release
GTI version: 38
Azure Pipelines status


## About

This library is a python wrapper for accessing the geofox api. This api is used to get information about the public transport in Hamburg, Germany.

## How to get the api credentials

You have to apply for credentials via the HVV website. You can see their official guide [here](https://www.hvv.de/de/fahrplaene/abruf-fahrplaninfos/datenabruf) (the page is only available in German).

They will send you a contract you will have to sign and send back. After about a week, you will receive your api credentials.

## Documentation

This library uses the same data types and parameters as specified in the [GTI documentation](https://api-test.geofox.de/gti/doc/index.jsp). It features client side validation of the parameters.

## Installation

Install the [package from pypi](https://pypi.org/project/pygti/).

```python
pip install pygti
```

## Usage

See the examples on how to use the library at [examples.py](https://github.com/vigonotion/pygti/blob/master/examples.py), and see the [GTI documentation](https://api-test.geofox.de/gti/doc/index.jsp) for in-depth explanation of parameters.

There is also a [Glitch example](https://pygti-examples.glitch.me/) available. Try it out and if you want to see how it's done, just [remix the app](https://glitch.com/edit/#!/pygti-examples).

A minimal working example is shown below:

```python
from pygti.gti import GTI, Auth
import asyncio
import aiohttp

GTI_USER = "" # your api username
GTI_PASS = "" # your api password

async def main():
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
auth = Auth(session, GTI_USER, GTI_PASS)

gti = GTI(auth)

ir = await gti.init()

# see the examples.py file for more functionality and use of the payloads

asyncio.run(main())
```

> :exclamation: **If using Python 3.8**: Version 3.6.2 of aiohttp uses a different EventLoopPolicy so running this MWE will currently result in an error displayed in the console! It should not affect the functionality. This should be fixed with a newer version of aiohttp. For a workaround look into the [examples.py](https://github.com/vigonotion/pygti/blob/master/examples.py) file. For more information see this [Issue](https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/issues/4324).
