Setup

The web application has been successfully tested with the following setup (older software versions may also work):

• nginx >= 1.18
• PHP >= 8.3

You can run your own instance by following the steps below:

1. Move at least the contents of the public folder to your web server and set it as your document root.
2. Create a data folder next to the public folder (if it does not already exist).
3. Download one or more GTFS archives from https://www.kvv.de/fahrplan/fahrplaene/open-data.html
4. Extract the ZIP file and move its contents to a subfolder of data with a name of your choice (e.g. the year or the full date of the download).
5. Navigate your web browser to the address you defined for your copy of the web application.

The very first page load may take some time because large CSV files must be processed initially.
