An app that displays both Muni and Bart times at the same time. Eventually this will be merged into the Tidbyt community app repo.
Community apps need to be reviewed by the Tidbyt team before they can be installed by the public. Once merged, they live in this repo. This app is being reviewed now, but hasn't been merged into the community repo yet. So if you'd like to use it, you'll need to install and run it locally.
In order to run the the app locally, you'll need to setup a Tidbyt dev environment by installing pixlet.
The pixlet setup instructions can be found here.
This part isn't strictly required, but it's helpful for development and setting up a continusouly running demon process that will restart the app if the server restarts. This repo uses a package.json file to make running some of the pixlet commands easier. In order to run the commands, you'll need npm or yarn. If your system doesn't have npm preinstalled, you can find the instructions here.
Install the dependencies.
npm install
To run the app, you'll first need to setup a few environment variables.
Copy the example env:
cp .example.env .env
Then open .env and fill in the missing values. There are a few mandatory values:
API_KEY- Tidbyt API keyDEVICE_ID- Tidyte device idMUNI_API_KEY- Request one from the Muni site.
To run the app in the web dev server, you can use the npm run serve command.
To automatically push changes to a physical device when you make changes, you can you the use the npm run dev command.
The pm2 package can be used to create a auto-restarting, long running process. Please see the pm2 documentation for more details.
