   Quick Start Paradigm

   Here is a quick-start example showing how easily you can use the package to stream real-time Singapore transit configurations:

from ltadatamall import BusManager

# Initialize the manager using your confidential LTA Account Key profile
manager = BusManager(api_key="YOUR_LTA_DATAMALL_ACCOUNT_KEY")

# Fetch structured real-time arrival metrics for an explicit bus stop
arrivals = manager.get_bus_arrival(bus_stop_code="65009")

for service in arrivals:
    print(f"Service: {service.service_no} -> Next Bus: {service.next_bus.estimated_arrival}")
