vbb-stations-autocomplete provides a stations search for the Berlin Brandenburg public transport service (VBB). It pulls its data from vbb-stations.
Note: Because there are ~ 13k stations, this module contains ~ 800k of data (~ 240k gzipped).
npm install vbb-stations-autocompleteautocomplete(query, results = 3, fuzzy = false, completion = true)const autocomplete = require('vbb-stations-autocomplete')
autocomplete('Seestr', 3)This returns stations in a reduced form of the Friendly Public Transport Format. To get all details, pass each id into vbb-stations.

]If you set fuzzy to true, words with a Levenshtein distance <= 3 will be taken into account. This is a lot slower though:
| test | performance |
|---|---|
non-fuzzy – U mehringdamm |
325 ops/sec |
fuzzy – U mehrigndamm |
73 ops/sec |
Setting completion to false speeds things up a lot:
| test | performance |
|---|---|
completion – U friedr |
306 ops/sec |
no completion – U friedr |
5076 ops/sec |
