• token: Get your token for the 511.org API from here: http://511.org/developers/list/tokens/create
• routes: Array of routes, with stop_id and label. Get stop ids for routes from here: https://www.sfmta.com/getting-around/transit/routes-stops, and the labels will be shown in the module to represent times for each route.
• maxTimesForDisplay: times for routes are shown in ascending time of train/bus arrival. This is the max number of times to show per route. (default: 4)
• animationSpeed: when times are updated, this is the animation speed at which the updated times are swapped in, in milliseconds. (default: 2 seconds)
• debug: used for development. Turns debugging logging on for both the browser and node server.
