Package: aio-geojson-nsw-transport-incidents
python-aio-geojson-nsw-transport-incidentsThis library provides convenient async access to theNSW Transport Service Live traffic statusincidents feed.
The feed can be seen online on (https://www.livetraffic.com/)Installationpip install aio-geojson-nsw-transport-incidentsUsageSee below for examples of how this library can be used. After instantiating a
particular class - feed or feed manager - and supply the required parameters,
you can callupdateto retrieve the feed data. The return value
will be a tuple of a status code and the actual data in the form of a list of
feed entries specific to the selected feed.Status CodesOK: Update went fine and data was retrieved. The library may still
return empty data, for example because no entries fulfilled the filter
criteria.OK_NO_DATA: Update went fine but no data was retrieved, for example
because the server indicated that there was not update since the last request.ERROR: Something went wrong during the updateParametersParameterDescriptionhome_coordinatesCoordinates (tuple of latitude/longitude)featureType of Hazard to retreiveTraffic Hazards are divided into six basic types:Incidents (incident-openincident-closedincident)Fire  (fire-openfire-closedfire)Flood (flood-openflood-closedflood)Alpine conditions (alpine-openalpine-closedalpine)Major Events (majorevent-openmajorevent-closedmajorevent)Roadworks (roadwork-openroadwork-closedroadwork)Hazards can be open, closed (or both can be retreived). Refer to theLive Traffic Data Developer GuideSupported FiltersFilterDescriptionRadiusfilter_radiusRadius in kilometers around the home coordinates in which events from feed are included.Categoriesfilter_categoriesArray of category names. Only events with a category matching any of these is included.ExampleimportasynciofromaiohttpimportClientSessionfromaio_geojson_nsw_transport_incidentsimportNswTransportServiceIncidentsFeedasyncdefmain()->None:asyncwithClientSession()aswebsession:# Home Coordinates: Latitude: -33.0, Longitude: 150.0# Filter radius: 50 km# Filter categories: 'Scheduled roadwork'# Hazard type : 'roadworks-open'feed=NswTransportServiceIncidentsFeed(websession,(-33.0,150.0),filter_radius=50,filter_categories=['Scheduled roadwork'],hazard="roadwork-open")status,entries=awaitfeed.update()print(status)print(entries)asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())Feed entry propertiesEach feed entry is populated with the following properties:NameDescriptionFeed attributegeometryAll geometry details of this entry.geometrycoordinatesBest coordinates (latitude, longitude) of this entry.geometryexternal_idThe unique public identifier for this incident.guidtitleTitle of this entry.titleattributionAttribution of the feed.n/adistance_to_homeDistance in km of this entry to the home coordinates.n/acategoryThe broad hazard category description assigned to the hazard by TMC Communications.

The first standard piece of advice to motorists. At the present timeadviceAadviceBTurn the second advice of this entryadviceBadviceOtherThe other advice of this entryadviceOtherisMajorTrue is the incident is major for this entryisMajorisEndedTrue if the hazard has ended, otherwise false. Once ended, the hazard’s record in our internal tracking system is closed and further modification becomes impossible unless the record is later re-opened. This  property is a counterpart to the createdproperty. When true, the  lastUpdatedproperty of the hazard will be the date/time when  the hazard’s record  in the tracking system was closed.isEndedisNewTrue if the incident is new for this entry.isNewisImpactNetworkTrue if the hazard is currently having some impact on traffic on the road network.isImpactNetworkdiversionsThe Summary of any traffic diversions in place. The text may contain HTML markup..diversionssubCategoryThe sub-category of incident of this entry.subCategorydurationThe Planned duration of the hazard. This property is rarely used.durationFeed ManagerThe Feed Manager helps managing feed updates over time, by notifying the
consumer of the feed about new feed entries, updates and removed entries
compared to the last feed update.If the current feed update is the first one, then all feed entries will be
reported as new. The feed manager will keep track of all feed entries'
external IDs that it has successfully processed.If the current feed update is not the first one, then the feed manager will
produce three sets:Feed entries that were not in the previous feed update but are in the
current feed update will be reported as new.Feed entries that were in the previous feed update and are still in the
current feed update will be reported as to be updated.Feed entries that were in the previous feed update but are not in the
current feed update will be reported to be removed.If the current update fails, then all feed entries processed in the previous
feed update will be reported to be removed.After a successful update from the feed, the feed manager provides two
different dates:last_updatewill be the timestamp of the last update from the feed
irrespective of whether it was successful or not.last_update_successfulwill be the timestamp of the last successful update
from the feed. This date may be useful if the consumer of this library wants
to treat intermittent errors from feed updates differently.last_timestamp(optional, depends on the feed data) will be the latest
timestamp extracted from the feed data.
This requires that the underlying feed data actually contains a suitable
date. This date may be useful if the consumer of this library wants to
process feed entries differently if they haven't actually been updated.Attribution and motivationThis is a fork ofexxamalte/python-aio-geojson-nsw-rfs-incidents.
It deferes mainly as the geoJSON feeds generated by NSW Transport using QGis.  QGis generates files that don't match exactly geojson format (geometry types :POINTinstead ofPoint)This library has been created forHome Assistant component.
