                }
            ]
        }
    },
    ...
]

Filtered board

If you want to filter the departure board you could do that by setting configs for "filterAttr" and "filterKey". Both settings needs to be set if used. Default is null. You can filter on multiple keys, so for example you can filter on multiple tracks by setting the filterKeys to ["A", "B"].

Example A - filter on Track:

So in order to filter the board on Track A. You could do that by simply setting "filterAttr" to "track" and "filterKeys" to ["A"]. This will remove all other tracks from the board. The same goes for "direction", "line" or "type".

config: {
                    .....
                    filterAttr: "track",
                    filterKeys: ["A"]
                    ....
        }

Example B - filter on Line:

So in order to filter the board on Line 4. Change config settings "filterAttr" to "line" and "filterKeys" to ["4"]. This will remove all other lines from the board.

config: {
                    .....
                    filterAttr: "line",
                    filterKeys: "4"
                    ....
        }

Departure time colors

Based on a feature request from @fillilutten there is now support to give you colorful warnings based on time (minutes) until departure. The functionality will give you the possibility to configure as many colors/warnings as you like. Only limitation is that two colors cant be active for the same departure time span.

To set color warnings you need to set two optional configurations "enableDepartureTimeColors" to "true" and add an array of departureTimeColor objects to "departureTimeColors" collection. the "departureTimeColor" object consists of three attributes. "max", which is maximum min until departure, "min" which is minimal time to departure and "color" which is the hex code representing the color which the warning should be rendered with, see example.

Example - Departure warning by colors:

Below configurations will give your board four different color warnings depending on time until departure. If departure time is within 1 min to departure the time remaining will be dark red (#660202), if departure time is within or equal two 2 - 4 mins it will be light red (#FF0000), if departure time is within 4 - 6 mins it will be yellow (#FFF200) and within 7 - 15 mins it will be light green (#52FF33)

config: {
                    .....
                    enableDepartureTimeColors: true,
                    departureTimeColors: [
                    {
                        max: 1,
                        min: 0,
                        color: "#660202"
                    },
                    {
                      max: 4,
                      min: 2,
                      color: "#FF0000"
                    },
                    {
                      max: 6,
                      min: 4,
                      color: "#FFF200"
                    },
                    {
                      max: 15,
                      min: 7,
                      color: "#52FF33"
                    }
                  ]
                    ....
        }

Minimal layout

If you are after minimal width or design, you should set showTrackNumbers, showDestinationName and showStopHeader to false. This will render the board like this:

Supports multi stops and translations

You can add a list of stop ids if you want to track multiple stops. Current supported languages are Swedish (sv) and English (en) and set in MagicMirror configurations.

Get traffic situations for your stops

You can get ongoing traffic situations or planned maintenance (swedish only) for your stops by setting traffic situtation flag to true in configs. Please keep in mind that you need to subscribe to TrafficSituations v1 API. See Prerequisites 2.1.
