Rejseplanen

The rejseplanen sensor will provide you with travel details for Danish public transport, using timetable data from Rejseplanen.

Configuration

Add a sensor to your configuration.yaml file as shown in the example:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: rejseplanen
    stop_id: "YOUR_STOP_ID"

stop_id

The stop_id can be obtained through the following steps:

• Go to https://www.openstreetmap.org
• Make a search and fill in the location you want to find for.
• The URL will look like this https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/56.15756/10.20674
• Now insert the coordinates for the location in the URL, in this example it will be: http://xmlopen.rejseplanen.dk/bin/rest.exe/stopsNearby?coordX=56.15756&coordY=10.20674&
• You will now see the 30 stops closest to your location.

You will see an output like this:

"StopLocation":[{
    "name":"Engdalsvej/Århusvej (Favrskov Kom)",
    "x":"10078598",
    "y":"56243456",
    "id":"713000702"

Find the name of your stop in the list and the “id” is the one you are looking for to us as value for stop_id:.

Direction

If you use the direction filter it’s important to put correct final destination(s) or else the sensor will not work at all. The direction has to be the final destination(s) for the Departure type - NOT the stop where you want to get off.

• Replace YOUR_STOP_ID with the id for your stop and go to http://xmlopen.rejseplanen.dk/bin/rest.exe/departureBoard?id=YOUR_STOP_ID
• The values under finalStop is the ones you need to put under direction. Make sure you use the exact name and insert all possible finalstops.

You will see an output like this:

<Departure name="Bus 200" type="BUS" stop="Engdalsvej/Århusvej (Favrskov Kom)" time="10:15" date="06.05.20" id="713000701" line="200" messages="0" finalStop="Bjergegårdsvej/Rylevej (Favrskov Kom)" direction="Hinnerup">

</Departure>
<Departure name="Bus 200" type="BUS" stop="Engdalsvej/Århusvej (Favrskov Kom)" time="10:25" date="06.05.20" id="713000702" line="200" messages="0" finalStop="Skanderborg Busterminal (Skanderborg Kom)" direction="Skanderborg Busterminal (Skanderborg Kom)">

</Departure>

A working example on how to use this sensor with direction:

# Example configuration.yaml entry with the correct use of direction.
sensor:
  - platform: rejseplanen
    stop_id: "713000702"
    direction:
      - 'Bjergegårdsvej/Rylevej (Favrskov Kom)'
      - 'Skanderborg Busterminal (Skanderborg Kom)'

Route

If you use the route filter it’s important to put correct route name(s) or else the sensor will not work at all.

• Replace YOUR_STOP_ID with the id for your stop and go to http://xmlopen.rejseplanen.dk/bin/rest.exe/departureBoard?id=YOUR_STOP_ID
• The values under Departure name is the ones you need to put under route. Make sure you use the exact name.

You will see an output like this:

<Departure name="Bus 1A" type="BUS" stop="Elmegade (Nørrebrogade)" time="10:19" date="06.05.20" id="45739" line="1A" messages="0" rtTime="10:21" rtDate="06.05.20" finalStop="Avedøre St." direction="Avedøre St.">
