Verkehrsbot

Telegram bot for DVB/VVO departures.

You can talk to this bot via @verkehr_bot on Telegram.

Usage

Send your location to the bot to get a list of the closest five stations as a custom keyboard. Select one and you will get the next departures. You can also send /Abfahrten Station [#] to get the departures at Station (optionally in # minutes).

Caveats

As the bot is currently hosted on Microsoft Azure, it needs some helper scripts and a precompiled Python wheel for pyproj. When my Azure subscription runs out, I might switch to a different provider or deactivate the bot.
