Station board integration in Home Assistant? #14

Open lostcontrol opened 2 years ago

lostcontrol commented 2 years ago

Hi,

Sorry to open a ticket here but this is probably the place where I can easily reach the right people.

This integration looks cool but unfortunately in HA, you can only setup "connections". I would like to have the "stationboard" mode, where I can just setup the train station in my town and see all the next connections going out from there. Also it would be nice to be able to set the "transportations" parameter to restrict the transportation means.

Looking at the code, I see that OpendataTransportStationboard is already implemented (missing the "transportations" parameter though) but no integration of it in the HA plugin.

Could this be added? Thank you

I started something here for transportations (for both connections and stationboard) and type (for stationboard only).

transportations is weird, only train seems to work!?
when type is set to arrival, the response remains the same and the to field seems to contain the "from" information. Looks a bit weird but seems to work as expected.
I notice that the names in the to field are often weird. Not the one you would see at the SBB train station for example.
