README

Circle CI Code Climate Test Coverage

A PHP package for parsing Transport for London (TFL) data feeds, includes support for Laravel 4.

Currently there is only support for extracting station facilities data and line information.

More information about the TFL Open Data feeds can be found at https://www.tfl.gov.uk/info-for/open-data-users/.

Usage

Note that for this library function you will have needed to obtain access to the TFL open data feeds and been given an app_id and app_key.

Plain ol' PHP

$tefel = new Tefel($stationFacilitiesFeedUrl, $appId, $appKey);
/** @var $stations Tefel\Feed\Station[] */
$stations = $tefel->getStations();

Laravel 4

To setup Tefel with Laravel 4 it's the usual setup process as with any package.

Add the following entries to your app/config/app.php;

'providers' => array(
  // ...
  'Tefel\TefelServiceProvider',
),

A facade is available for use in Laravel 4.

'aliases' => array(
  // ...
  'TFL' => 'Tefel\Facade\TefelFacade',
),

Usage is then more familiar for Laravel 4 users;

/** @var $stations Tefel\Feed\Station[] */
$stations = Tefel::getStations();

Configuration is available for the package in Laravel 4. You can publish the configuration to your application by running;

php artisan config:publish mramsden/tefel

The following configuration is available;

name description
stations_feed_url The URL to download the station facilities feed from.
app_id The app id issued to you by TFL.
app_key The app key issued to you by TFL.

Note that you don't need to change the app_id and app_key values in your own configuration file. You can also assign these values through the TFL_APP_ID and TFL_APP_KEY environment variables respectively.
