Requirements

Python 2.6+ or Python 3.0+ with the curses module installed (i.e. not
Windows)
Terminal with 256 color support to correctly display the Richmond-Fremont
line as orange (magenta otherwise)

Note: this usually involves setting the TERM environment variable to
xterm-256color

pip install pybart

Usage
usage: bart [-h] [-v] {map,list,est,fare} ...

-v, --version show program's version number and exit

commands:
{map,list,est,fare}
map open station map in web browser
list show list of stations and their abbreviations
est display estimates for specified stations
fare show fare for a trip between two stations

examples:
bart get estimates for $BART_STATIONS
bart map open station map
bart list list all stations
bart est mcar get estimates for MacArthur station
bart est embr cols get estimates for Embarcadero and Coliseum stations
bart fare conc sfia get fare for a trip between Concord and SFO stations

Configuration
The following (optional) environment variables can be used to configure pybart:

BART_STATIONS - a comma-separated string (e.g. mcar,embr,cols)
specifying the default stations to use when running bart with no
arguments.
BART_API_KEY - the BART API key to use when fetching information. A
public one is used by default, but you can get your own
here.

API
Even though it doesn’t use everything, pybart includes a low-level Python
wrapper for the full
BART API with
pybart.api.BART. Every call by default returns the root element of the XML
response using
ElementTree.
JSON is also supported but the format is currently in
beta.
Example usage:
>>> from pybart.api import BART
>>> bart = BART() # Uses the public API key by default
>>> root = bart.stn.stninfo('dbrk')
>>> station = root.find('stations').find('station')
>>> print(station.find('address').text + ', ' + station.find('city').text)
2160 Shattuck Avenue, Berkeley
>>> print(bart.version().find('apiVersion').text)
3.10
>>> bart = BART(json_format=True) # Now with JSON
>>> root = bart.stn.stninfo('dbrk')
>>> station = root['stations']['station']
>>> print(station['address'] + ', ' + station['city'])
2160 Shattuck Avenue, Berkeley
