Description

A simple python package that interacts with the [Bay Area Rapid Transit API](http://api.bart.gov/docs/overview/index.aspx).

Usage

install bart_api with:

git clone github.com/projectdelphai/bart/api sudo python setup.py install

To create a new object:

from bart_api import BartApi

bart = BartApi()

If you have your own API key (which you can get at the BART API website), you can use that instead of the default free one with:

bart = BartApi(“YOUR_API_KEY_HERE”)

To get the number of live trains:

live_trains = bart.number_of_trains()

To get the status of all elevators:

elevators_status = bart.elevator_status()

To run the tests to make sure everything is running well, run this command in the root directory:

python -m unittest discover
