Partridge is python library for working with
`GTFS <https://developers.google.com/transit/gtfs/>`__ feeds using
`pandas <https://pandas.pydata.org/>`__ DataFrames.

The implementation of Partridge is heavily influenced by our experience
at `Remix <https://www.remix.com/>`__ ingesting, analyzing, and
debugging thousands of GTFS feeds from hundreds of agencies.

At the core of Partridge is a dependency graph rooted at ``trips.txt``.
When reading the contents of a feed, disconnected data is pruned away
according to this graph. The root node can optionally be filtered to
create a view of the feed specific to your needs. It's most common to
filter a feed down to specific dates (``service_id``), routes
(``route_id``), or both.

Usage
-----

.. code:: python

import datetime
import partridge as ptg

path = 'path/to/sfmta-2017-08-22.zip'

service_ids_by_date = ptg.read_service_ids_by_date(path)

feed = ptg.feed(path, view={
'trips.txt': {
'service_id': service_ids_by_date[datetime.date(2017, 9, 25)],
'route_id': '12300', # 18-46TH AVENUE
},
})

assert set(feed.trips.service_id) == service_ids_by_date[datetime.date(2017, 9, 25)]
assert list(feed.routes.route_id) == ['12300']

# Buses running the 18 - 46th Ave line use 88 stops (on September 25, 2017, at least).
assert len(feed.stops) == 88

Features
--------

- Surprisingly fast :)
- Load only what you need into memory
- Built-in support for resolving calendar days
- Built on pandas DataFrames
- Easily extended to support fields and files outside the official spec
(TODO: document this)
- Handle nested folders and bad data in zips
- Predictable type conversions, by default

Installation
------------

.. code:: console

pip install partridge

History
=======


0.3.0 (2017-10-12)
===================

* Fix service date resolution for raw_feed. Previously raw_feed considered all days of the week from calendar.txt to be active regardless of 0/1 value.


0.2.0 (2017-09-30)
===================

* Add missing edge from fare_rules.txt to routes.txt in default dependency graph.


0.1.0 (2017-09-23)
