Access public transit data from Nederlandse Spoorwegen API with node.js
To use this module you need API access credentials, which you can request at Here (Dutch).
const NSAPI = require ('ns-api');
const ns = new NSAPI ({
key: 'abc123',
});
// Output w/o limits
function out (data) {
console.dir (data, {
depth: null,
colors: true,
});
}
// Get travel advise
ns.getTrips ({
fromStation: 'UT',
toStation: 'AMF',
})
.then (out)
.catch (console.error)
;npm i ns-api
| param | type | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| key | string | One of your API keys | |
| [timeout] | number | 8000 | Request time out in ms |
const NSAPI = require ('ns-api');
const ns = new NSAPI ({
key: 'abc123',
});Each method returns a Promise, so make sure to catch the errors properly.
When a method takes arguments they are only accepted in object notation. This way the order no longer matters and it makes it easier to reuse them.
methodName ({ one, two });I'm not going to outline to full possibilities of each method here, only the parts that adjust the API response or make the request easier. Read the API documentation links to find all available parameters that each method can take.
