Tubemaps

Given a dataset, get all the tube/stations relations done!

Image from Visualizing the tube in D3 that triggered the idea for this library

Install

$ npm install --save tubemaps

For command-line use:

$ npm install --g tubemaps

Soon on bower.

Command line tool

For now Command line only supports London

Existing datasets

London

var Maps = require('tubemaps/maps');
 
Maps("london", function(err, tube) {
  var euston = tube.getStationByName("Euston");
  var victoria = tube.getStationByName("Victoria");
  console.log(tube.path(euston, victoria))
})

Use yours

Look at our datasets and make it identical but with your data

var TubeMap = require('tubemaps').TubeMap;
var readCSVs = require('tubemaps/csv').readCSVs;
 
var files = {
  connections: __dirname + '/../datasets/london.connections.csv',
  lines: __dirname + '/../datasets/london.lines.csv',
  stations: __dirname + '/../datasets/london.stations.csv'
};
 
readCSVs(files, function(err, csvs) {
 
  var tubemap = new TubeMap({
    connections: csvs[0],
    lines: csvs[1],
    stations: csvs[2]
  });
 
  var victoriaLine = tubemap.getLineByName("Victoria Line");
  console.log(tubemap.line(victoriaLine.line));
 
});
