"type" ignored in locations query #187

Open robachmann opened 6 years ago

robachmann commented 6 years ago

I'm trying to get a list of stations but it seems that all location types are returned instead:

doc: http://transport.opendata.ch/docs.html#locations request: http://transport.opendata.ch/v1/locations?query=Z%C3%BCrich-Bahnhofstrasse&type=station response:

...
{"id":null,"name":"UBS Switzerland AG Bahnhofstrasse, Z\u00fcrich, Bahnhofstr. 72","score":null,"coordinate":{"type":"WGS84","x":null,"y":null},"distance":null}
...

I would expect to receive a list with only stations in it, no pois or addresses.

Correct, the type parameter is currently not supported, there's no matching parameter on https://timetable.search.ch/api/help#stationboard.

Use the official list if you're not interested in autocompletion: https://opentransportdata.swiss/de/dataset/didok

Thanks, Christian. That list helped a lot and I'm able to query the connections endpoint successfully. @fabian, if you don't plan to support the type query, you're free to close this issue.

Thank you both very much.

Is it planned to support this parameter anytime in the near future? If not maybe you could remove it from the documentation as it currently implies the parameter is working as expected.
