# HK Bus ETA

Bus ETAs in Hong Kong is now available as open data in Hong Kong, while there is no format normalization across different transport provider.  This package is a js package (typescript supported) for querying normalized public traffic ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) in Hong Kong. The ETA data structure is based on [hkbus/hk-bus-crawling](https://github.com/hkbus/hk-bus-crawling) and a well-established open-source project is known as [hkbus.app](https://hkbus.app/).

A Python version package is available [here](https://pypi.org/project/hk-bus-eta/) and the source code is available [here](https://github.com/hkbus/hk-bus-crawling).

## Demo

Live demo is available [here](https://hk-bus-eta.chunlaw.io/).

## Install

`npm install hk-bus-eta`
or 
`yarn add hk-bus-eta`


## Usage

__Crawling traffic database:__
```ts
import { fetchEtaDb } from "hk-bus-eta";
import type { EtaDb } from "hk-bus-eta";

(async function () {
  const etaDb: EtaDb = await fetchEtaDb();
  console.log(db)
})();
```

__Crawling ETA__
```ts
import { fetchEtas } from "hk-bus-eta";
import type { Eta } from "hk-bus-eta";

(async function () {
  // etaDb is the EtaDb object fetched by fetchEtaObj
  const etas: Eta[] = await fetchEtas({
    ...etaDb.routeList["1+1+CHUK YUEN ESTATE+STAR FERRY"],
    seq: 0,
    language: "en",
  });
  console.log(etas);
})();
```
