# hafas-client

**A client for HAFAS public transport APIs**. Sort of like [public-transport-enable](https://github.com/schildbach/public-transport-enabler), but with a smaller scope. It also contains customisations for the following transport networks:

- [Deutsche Bahn](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deutsche_Bahn) – [src](p/db/index.js)
- [Berlin public transport](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verkehrsverbund_Berlin-Brandenburg) – [src](p/vbb/index.js)

## Background

There's [a company called HaCon](http://hacon.de) that sells [a public transport management system called HAFAS](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAFAS). It is [used by companies all over Europe](https://gist.github.com/derhuerst/2b7ed83bfa5f115125a5) to serve routing and departure information for apps. All those endpoints are similar, with the same terms and API routes, but have slightly different options, filters and enable features.

`hafas-client` contains all logic for communicating with these, as well as serialising from and parsing to [FPTF](https://github.com/public-transport/friendly-public-transport-format). Endpoint-specific customisations increase the quality of the returned data.
