NYC bus app not showing up in app yet

[samandmoore]

Hi!

I saw the NYC bus app that I made was merged a while ago but I'm still not seeing it in the app to setup. I'm seeing some other apps merged around the same time though.

Is there an issue with the bus app preventing it from getting enabled?

Thanks!

Hi Sam. Unfortunately the app doesn't seem to be rendering for any of the stops that I tried when testing:

That's odd! Let me investigate. It's weird because I have been running it locally for a month. Though not with the schema layer on top.

Does it log anything when it doesn't render? I'd expect that the API must be erroring or it's failing to decrypt the secret?

[rohansingh]

The secret definitely decrypts and works fine since we're able to see the list of stops and pick stops. Here's the error log:

I see the same things with all the stops I've tried around our office at 544 Park Ave in Brooklyn.

weird! I'm running it locally right now with that stop and it's working 😬

[samandmoore]

lemme look closer at the bus API responses to see if there's some reason that key might be missing.

[rohansingh]

OK, head scratcher for sure. There must be something with our server environment that's different. I'll have to try it on my dev server and report back.

The preview with example stop code works so there might be some issue in how we're propagating the config.

[rohansingh]

OK, I see the issue. Please check out the last bit in the documentation for LocationBased that shows what to expect from config.get:

Here's an example of how this is handled in the LIRR app:

community/apps/lirr/lirr.star

Line 28 in 4b9b58b

station_id = json.decode(station_id)["value"]

[samandmoore]

ah crap! that's my bad. missed that in the docs. will fix that up right now.

This has been launched! Thanks again @samandmoore and so sorry for the back and forth.
