## Öffisearch

Öffisearch is a progressive web app for querying public transport information for the DB (and in the future BVG and nah.sh) networks. A hosted version of Öffisearch is available at [oeffisear.ch](https://oeffisear.ch).

This repository consists of multiple modules, which are more or less independent. The HAFAS backend `src/backend/hafas` can be used to query the HAFAS mgate.exe endpoint directly. The cache and webserver modules allow serving an HTTP API. A unique id is generated for each request, so that the data can be requested again at a later time.

### Development

- Install the nim compiler >=1.0.4 and nimble language package manager from your distribution's package repositories.
- Run `nimble run oeffisearch`

Or `nix-shell`, to set up the Öffisearch development server using the Nix package manager.

### Attribution

Thanks a lot to [Jannis Redmann](https://github.com/derhuerst/) for his work on [hafas-client](https://github.com/public-transport/hafas-client/). While Öffisearch does not use any code from hafas-client, it borrows a lot of the concepts and knowledge about the HAFAS APIs.
