What is this?

This is a random nodejs + express exercise for myself. It is just a simple web page for query the HK KMB Bus Arrival Time.

Run the app

1. First clone this repo

    # git clone https://github.com/shunwatai/kmb-bus-query
   

2. To run this app, please install the required nodejs module by following commands:

    # cd kmb-bus-query
    # npm install express request body-parser
   

3. run it with a port number, I use port 3000 here

    # node kmb.js 3000
   

4. open a web browser and go to http://serverIP:3000/form.html

5. input bus number --> select direction --> select bus stop

6. Wait for few seconds and the time of next bus arrival should be displayed
