Some problems with API endpoint #416

Closed aborruso closed 8 years ago

aborruso commented 8 years ago

Dear all, I have seen you have added a GTFS of my country (Rome, Italy) in the feed registry, but I have no result using the API endpoint.

I have made these two requests:

I have always an empy result. What's wrong in my requests?

Thank you

Hi @aborruso, thanks for your submission and for writing to us! We applied the changeset to create the Rome feed and operator models. But we have not yet run an import process to create stops, routes, and schedule data for the Rome feed. We spread out the initial imports over a couple days, so we're able to make sure they complete successfully. We'll import the Rome feed soon and let you know when it's ready.

You are very kind, thank you very much

Hi @drewda this is only a proposal, it is not a criticism: I think it would be better to put in list a new data source only when the import process will be complete.

Thansitland is really a great idea/product

drewda commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the feedback, and glad you're liking Transitland. We're still figuring out how to best scale and manage the contribution process.

drewda commented 8 years ago

@aborruso we've now fully imported the routes, stops, and schedule data for the Rome feed.

Here are some example queries that are now possible:

Yes, that's a good idea to better indicate where in the import process a feed is. In the future, we'll be adding an activity feed (https://github.com/transitland/transitland-datastore/issues/395) and perhaps also better visual indicators on the Feed Registry to show what level of data is available for each feed.

Thanks again for your participation!

Thank you very much @drewda

In these days I have submitted other 2 importants GTFS files (for Napoli, Italy). If these will be ready for 5 March, the open data day, I think that coud be used for a local hackathon. It's only a desire, I do not want you to hurry.

Best regards

drewda commented 8 years ago

@aborruso you're welcome. We'd love to equip you and your colleagues for the hackathon--we'll see about getting those feeds imported soon.

It's less useful than the feeds, but we can also mail you some Transitland stickers if you'd like! If so, just e-mail us your mailing address to transitland@mapzen.com

aborruso commented 8 years ago

Thank you @drewda I have sent an email for the stickers.

And now I pray for the feed :)

drewda commented 8 years ago

@aborruso stickers are in the mail, and the feeds are imported.

Please have a look through the Transitland Playground and API. Let us know if you see any problems, or if it's all set to help at your hackathon.

And in any case, if your hackathon produces any interesting apps, visualizations, or analyses using the Transitland API, please let us know. We'd love a guest blog post, a tweet of a screenshot, or whatever you and your collaborators would like to share!

Dear Drew, first of all thank you very much.

I have seen yesterday and your API is fantastic.

I hope that Transitland API will produce some good result, but I can not be sure, because developers have been informed today, but if not it will for Open Data Day, now all civic hackers, developers and citizems have a new powerful tool available, that will help them build great things.

I will inform you about our results.

Thank you very much
