Banashankari

Platform, route / bus, stop web-app for the Banashankari Bus Stand

A mobile-friendly single-page PWA that facilitates easy navigation of the Banashankari Bus Stand:

Setup

• To set up the project, for development or otherwise, first run yarn install
• Once the packages have been installed, yarn dev will run the applet locally, while yarn build will create a build folder.

Translations

Translation strings for data elements are provided with the data, while other translations are stored in messages/. Translation related settings (e.g default locale) are stored in project.inlang/settings.json.

Data

All input data is stored in input/:

• platforms-banashankari.geojson: Platform coordinates
• platform-index.csv: Platform <-> Route mappings
• bus-stops.csv: Stops of a route in English
• bus-stops-kn.csv: Stop in English <-> Stop in Kannada

Python scripts to process the data are stored in the root project folder.

• generate-geojson.py: Takes all available data in input/ to create platform-routes-banashankari.geojson (used by applet for all data)
• update-platform-index.py: Reads a temporary bus-stops-pf.csv with platform information and modifies existing platform values to the new ones.
• generate-bus-stops-kn.py: Takes all available unique stops in bus-stops.csv, and uses varnam's transliteration API to generate bus-stops-kn.csv (not used as we now receive a bus-stops-kn.csv)

The final output file is static/data/platforms-routes-banashankari.geojson. This is available on the build under data/platforms-routes-banashankari.geojson. This output file is used by the applet to read platform, route / bus, and stop information.
