• Search for bus stops around a coordinate location in London
• Get live bus arrival times for a specific bus stop

This API client is not affiliated with Transport for London in any way.

Usage

You must Register for a TfL API Key

const TfL = require('tfl-client');

let tfl = new TfL(TFL_APP_ID, TFL_APP_SECRET);

Search for bus stops by name:

tfl.bus.findBusStopByName(name).then(res => {
  console.log(res);
});

Search for bus stops within a 1km radius:

// busfindNearestBusStops(lat, lon)
tfl.busfindNearestBusStops('51.531550', '-0.104881').then(res => {
  console.log(res);
});

With a bus stop ID from your searches you can then query for live bus arrival times:

// getAllArrivalTimes(busStopId)
tfl.getAllArrivalTimes('490014778Q').then(res => {
  console.log(res);
});

For convenience, getArrivalTimesByLine() will group arrival times by line.

// getArrivalTimesByLine(busStopId)
tfl.getArrivalTimesByLine('490014778Q').then(res => {
  console.log(res);
});

If you only care about the arrival times of a single line, you can use getArrivalTimesForLine().

// getArrivalTimesForLine(busStopId, lineId)
tfl.getArrivalTimesForLine('490014778Q', '43').then(res => {
  console.log(res);
});
