# Pi MTA Sign!
|
|
|
|
This project gives you a docker image that you can run locally to pull MTA data and self-host a webpage that looks very
|
|
similar to the classic MTA Signs found in the metro.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Initially designed to run directly on a raspberry pi, it has been containerized and now runs anywhere you can install
|
|
podman or docker!
|
|
|
|
Additionally, this can be run without the frontend in case you just wanted a slightly more sane way to query MTA's data
|
|
sources compared to their stock APIs.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Real-time MTA Data**: Live train arrival times for NYC subway
|
|
stations - [available for free here](https://api.mta.info/#/subwayRealTimeFeeds)
|
|
- **Configurable Stations**: Monitor multiple stations simultaneously with separate cards
|
|
- **Line Filtering**: Show/hide specific transit lines for each station
|
|
- **Direction Selection**: Toggle between North/South bound trains independently
|
|
- **Responsive Design**: Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile displays
|
|
- **Configuration Persistence**: Save your selected stations and preferences to localStorage or export/import them via
|
|
JSON
|
|
- **Docker Ready**: Easy deployment with Docker or Docker Compose
|
|
|
|
## Running the Docker Image
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Docker installed on your system
|
|
|
|
### Quick Start with Docker
|
|
|
|
Pull the latest image from GitHub Container Registry:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker pull ghcr.io/lucasoskorep/pi-mta-sign:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run the container:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -d \
|
|
-p 8000:8000 \
|
|
--name pi-mta-sign \
|
|
ghcr.io/lucasoskorep/pi-mta-sign:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The application will be available at `http://localhost:8000`
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Description | Default | Required |
|
|
|-------------------|---------------------------------|---------|----------|
|
|
| `FRONTEND_ENABLE` | Enable/disable the web frontend | `true` | No |
|
|
|
|
### Running with Docker Compose
|
|
|
|
For a more convenient setup, use the provided docker-compose configuration:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Copy the example docker-compose.yaml from the docker folder
|
|
cp docker/docker-compose.example.yaml docker-compose.yaml
|
|
|
|
# Run with docker-compose
|
|
docker-compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See `docker/docker-compose.example.yaml` for a complete example configuration.
|
|
|
|
### Local Development
|
|
|
|
To develop on this app locally you can clone the repo and then in the repo root run the following
|
|
|
|
Tools needed:
|
|
|
|
- [just](https://github.com/casey/just)
|
|
- [uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv)
|
|
- [fnm](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm)
|
|
|
|
Once you have all the required tooling all you need to do is
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
just init # downloads python
|
|
|
|
just dev # this will spin up the nextjs frontend and fastapi backend in hot reload mode
|
|
```
