Creates GTFS file for the biggest Polish railway operator (by passenger numbers), PolRegio.
Schedule data comes from their ticketing system API. It falls under Article 5.1 of the public sector data re-use act. The agency has not expressed any requirements as described by Article 11 of that law (as of 2021-07-07), thus, following Article 11.4, this data is available without any license-like requirements.
Stop positions are downloaded from my other project, PLRailMap, which is also released into the public domain (under CC0-1.0 license).
This means that the produced GTFS file can also be considered as if it was released into the public domain, or under the CC0-1.0 license.
PolRegioGTFS is written in Python with the Impuls framework.
To set up the project, run:
$ python3 -m venv .venv
$ . .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -Ur requirements.txt
Then, run:
$ python3 -m polregio_gtfs
The resulting schedules will be put in a file called polregio.zip.
The scraper needs to make a lot of calls to the underlying API, so the process
might take a couple of minutes.
