Installation

Python 3.6 or higher required

pip install vvspy

Examples

• Detect delay in upcoming departures:

from vvspy import get_departures

deps = get_departures("5006115", limit=3)  # Stuttgart main station
for dep in deps:
    if dep.delay > 0:
        print("Alarm! Delay detected.")
        print(dep)  # [Delayed] [11:47] [RB17]: Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (oben) - Pforzheim Hauptbahnhof

    else:
        print("Train on time")
        print(dep)  # [11:47] [RB17]: Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (oben) - Pforzheim Hauptbahnhof

• Get complete trip info between two stations (including interchanges):

from vvspy import get_trip  # also usable: get_trips

trip = get_trip("5000355", "5005600")  # Stuttgart main station

print(f"Duration: {trip.duration / 60} minutes")
for connection in trip.connections:
    print(f"From: {connection.origin.name} - To: {connection.destination.name}")

# Output:
Duration: 58 minutes
From: Wallgraben - To: Hauptbf (A.-Klett-Pl.)
From: Hauptbf (Arnulf-Klett-Platz) - To: Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (tief)
From: Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (tief) - To: Marbach (N)
From: Marbach (N) Bf - To: Murr Hardtlinde

• Filter for specific lines:

from vvspy import get_departures

deps = get_departures("5006118")  # Stuttgart main station (lower)
for dep in deps:
    if dep.serving_line.symbol == "S4":
        print(f"Departure of S4 at {dep.real_datetime}")
