The citybikes sensor platform monitors bike availability at bike sharing stations in a chosen area. The data is provided by CityBikes, which supports bike sharing systems all around the world.

{% linkable_title Configuration %}

To enable it, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml:

# Example configuration.yaml entry (using radius)
sensor:
  - platform: citybikes

{% configuration %} name: description: The base name of this group of monitored stations. The entity ID of every monitored station in this group will be prefixed with this base name, in addition to the network ID. required: false type: string network: description: The name of the bike sharing system to poll. required: false default: Defaults to the system that operates in the monitored location. type: string latitude: description: Latitude of the location, around which bike stations are monitored. required: false default: Defaults to the latitude in your configuration.yaml file. type: string longitude: description: Longitude of the location, around which bike stations are monitored. required: false default: Defaults to the longitude in your configuration.yaml file. type: string radius: description: The radius (in meters or feet, depending on the Home Assistant configuration) around the monitored location. Only stations closer than this distance will be monitored. required: false type: integer stations: description: A list of specific stations to monitor. The list should contain station IDs or UIDs, which can be obtained from the CityBikes API. required: false type: list {% endconfiguration %}
