The rvmtransport sensor will give you the departure time of the next bus, tram, subway, or train at the next station or stop in the Rhein-Main area public transport network. Additional details such as the line number and destination are present in the attributes.

{% linkable_title Configuration %}

To enable this sensor, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: rmvtransport
    next_departure:
     - station: STATION_OR_STOP_ID

{% configuration %} timeout: description: Specify the timeout for the API calls. required: false default: 10 type: integer next_departure: description: One or multiple departure sensors. required: true type: list keys: name: description: Name to use in the frontend. required: false default: The default is the station name. type: string station: description: "ID of the stop or station, e.g. 3000010. Visit the RMV OpenData web site to find a list of valid IDs." required: true type: string destinations: description: "One or multiple final stop names, e.g., 'Frankfurt (Main) Hauptbahnhof' or ['Frankfurt (Main) Hauptbahnhof','Frankfurt (Main) Stadion']. This can be used to only consider a particular direction of travel." required: false type: [string] direction: description: "Name of a stop or station, e.g., 'Frankfurt (Main) Hauptbahnhof'. This can be used to only consider a particular direction of travel." required: false type: [string] lines: description: "One or more line numbers, e.g., 'S8' or ['S8', 'RB33', '41']" required: false type: [string, int] products: description: "One or more modes of transport ['U-Bahn', 'Tram', 'Bus', 'S-Bahn', 'RB', 'RE', 'EC', 'IC', 'ICE']." required: false default: ['U-Bahn', 'Tram', 'Bus', 'S-Bahn', 'RB', 'RE', 'EC', 'IC', 'ICE'] type: [string] time_offset: description: Do not display departures leaving sooner than this number of minutes.

{% linkable_title Full configuration %}

The example below shows a full configuration with three sensors that showcase the various configuration options.

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: rmvtransport
    scan_interval: 120
    timeout: 10
    next_departure:
      - station: 3000010
        time_offset: 5
        destinations:
          - 'Frankfurt (Main) Flughafen Regionalbahnhof'
          - 'Frankfurt (Main) Stadion'
        products:
          - 'RB'
          - 'RE'
          - 'Bus'
          - 'S-Bahn'
      - station: 3006907
        products: 'Bus'
        destinations: ['Wiesbaden Dernsches Gelände', 'Mainz Hauptbahnhof']
        name: Destination
      - station: 3006904
        lines: 'S8'
        max_journeys: 5
        products: 'S-Bahn'

The first sensor will return S-Bahn, bus, RB and RE trains departures from Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof to Frankfurt Airport or Stadium that are at least 5 minutes away.

The second sensor returns bus departures from Wiesbaden Hauptbahnhof going to Dernsches Gelände and Mainz Hauptbahnhof. To retrieve the time of the second departure, you would use states.sensor.ENTITY_NAME.attributes.departures[1].time.

The third sensor returns all S-Bahn trains from Mainz Hauptbahnhof for line S8.
