Creates GTFS file for ZTM Rzeszów. Data comes from Rzeszów's open data portal. which contains zip archives with TranchXChange files.
I assume that those TransXChange files are considered "public sector information" by Polish law, and are subject to laws described in ustawa o ponownym wykorzystywaniu informacji sektora publicznego.
Gmina Miasto Rzeszów has expressed their requirements (in accordance with article 11 of the aformentioned legislation) on this website: https://bip.erzeszow.pl/pl/319-informacja-publiczna-ponowne-wykorzystywanie-informacji-sektora-publicznego/4570-zasady-dostepu-do-informacji-publicznej.html.
Exposing info from attributions.txt should satisfy the first point of those requirements.
Python3 (version 3.6 or later) is required with 2 additional libraries:
Before launching install required libs with pip3 install -r requirements.txt.
This script has two modes of operation: single-file and merge.
The script has to be launched with either python3 rzeszowgtfs.py -s FILE_NAME or python3 rzeszowgtfs.py -m.
This will create a GTFS files from all files valid today and in the future. ZTM Rzeszów uploads a new file every couple days and GTFS-consuming apps usually need 2/3 days to process new file. This mode makes sure that users always see newest schedules (and even allows them to plan ahead for a bit).
Launch this mode with python3 rzeszowgtfs.py --merge or python3 rzeszowgtfs.py -m.
The produced GTFS will be called rzeszow.zip.
The script will create a directory called feeds that will contain individual GTFS files,
in order not to re-parse them each time this script is called.
This mode accepts 2 more arguments:
- --remerge / -rm: Forces the merging of all feeds/ GTFSs, even if nothing changed;
- --reparse / -rp: Forces the recreation of each individual file.
This mode simply creates a GTFS corresponding to a particular TransXChange file in the TransXChange dataset.
The name of the target resouce name has to be provided in the -s/--single-file argument, for example:
python3 rzeszowgtfs.py -s TransXChange20210201120555 or python3 rzeszowgtfs.py --single-file TransXChange20210201120555
