Script description

Bus Stop shows the next departure of your bus or tram line right on your clock, including live delays.

The top row shows the scheduled departure time, followed by the delay: +X in red when the vehicle is late, +0 in green when it's on time. The bottom row scrolls the line number and its destination. Cancelled trips are shown in red. A bus stop icon (yellow H on a stop pole) sits on the left, or you can use any icon from the AWTRIX Hub instead.

Timetable and live data come from the nationwide DELFI database via efa.vrr.de. It's free, needs no API key and covers buses, trams and subways all over Germany. Times are converted to your local time automatically.

Settings

  • Stop: town and stop name, e.g. "Gelsenkirchen Wissenschaftspark". Adding the town makes sure the right stop is found.
  • Line: the line number, e.g. 302 or NE12.
  • Direction (optional): part of the destination name. Both directions usually share the same stop, so use this to see only one of them. Leave it empty to show the next departure either way.
  • Refresh: how often departures are updated (default 60 s).
  • Icon (optional): an AWTRIX Hub icon name. Leave it empty for the built-in bus stop icon.

Press the middle button to refresh right away.

To watch both directions or several lines, install the app more than once with different settings.

Requires an Ulanzi TC002 (52×16 display).
