DVB

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

Similar libs also exist for Node, Python and Swift 😊

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dvb'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dvb

Usage

Calling the following will return a list of DVB::Departure objects encapsulating information about upcoming departures at the given stop.

DVB::monitor('helmholtzstrasse')

Why?

At this point I consider writing wrappers for the DVB/VVO APIs as somewhat of an extensive hello-world exercise for myself. I'm trying to get back into Ruby and realized I've never published a gem, so here goes nothing 😄
