ResRobot departureBoard maxJourneys

Hej! När jag använder ResRobot Stolptidstabeller departureBoard så verkar den ignorera värdet i maxJourneys. Försöker begränsa det till 2 avgångar.

Exempelanrop:

  • Hej R,
    Ja tyvärr så gör den det när man söker resor inom närmsta tiden. Det var en förändring som skedde med uppdateringen till 2.1 och som finns dokumenterat i länken nedan (eller se bild). Vi brukar rekommendera att använda duration istället för att korta ner antal avgångar.

  • It would be great to have maxJourneys always work and limit the number of results and thus the size of the json!

  • Hi Michael,

    Is there a reason why the duration parameter doesn't fit your purpose, as the duration parameter should consistently get you the same time span (e.g. all departures within 30 minutes)?

  • Hey,

    my usecase has limited memory available and big json responses kill the app 😀

    I want to be flexible regarding the queried station. So, for 'small' stations it is nice to have as many departures as possible (duration high) but then for 'large' stations there are too many departures if maxJourney is neglected. If I reduce duration, there might be too little departures for 'small' stations. Having a maxJourneys setting always on would be best from my point of view. Hope this helped understanding.

  • Thanks for the clarification, this helps us understand use cases for future improvements and development. This is however not something we can adjust or fix in the Resrobot API.

    Depending on your use case, the Trafiklab Realtime APIs may be an alternative. While this API also returns large results (a hardcoded window of 60 minutes) the JSON data itself is a bit more compact compared to Resrobot.

  • Is there maybe another (hidden) parameter which reduces the amount of data in the json response. I see a lot of redundant information that I would not need. The response json should be smaller than 30Kb in my case.

    Thanks for your help

  • I belive everyone agrees on that a max number of returned journeys is what we need 😀
