Description

This is an unofficial PHP library for the KVV public transport association in Germany (Baden-Württemberg). It is not developed as part of the official KVV information system and therefore is subject to change without notice.

The library consists of two main modules. The \KVV\EFA and the \KVV\Live\EFA endpoint. Both of them allow you to request different data and do different operations. The \KVV\Live\EFA is signifikantly faster than the other one, because it does not need to parse HTML code and consequently is also more stable. The following is a feature list, showing what you can do with this library.

Basic \KVV\EFA API

• search for bus/tram stations and place names via autocomplete api
• search for trips between two locations via search api
• search for trips with special attributes such as low-floor vehicles via advanced search api
• paging between trips via paging module

Fast \KVV\Live\EFA API

• search stops by name
• search stops by id
• search stops by latitude and longitude
• request live departures from tram stops
• request live departures by stop and route
• determine if a given stop is part of a route
