nstimes 0.1.10

CLI tool to obtain schedule info from the dutch railway services

Installation

To install, run the following:

pip install nstimes

To verify, run:

nstimes --version

To install auto-completion, run:

nstimes --install-completion

In order for autocomplete to work, one might need to add this to their .zshrc:

echo -e "\ncompinit -D\n" | tee -a ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc # Reload shell

Obtaining NS token Create an account at the NS API portal. Then create a token here.

Add the token to your shell:

echo -e "\nexport NS_API_TOKEN=****\n" | tee -a ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc # Reload shell

nstimes
