Public Transit (Nextbus)	Instructions on how to use public transit data from Nextbus in Home Assistant.	train.png	Transport Sensor	Local Polling	0.93

The nextbus sensor will give you the next departure time and associated data from your public transit station/stop. The data comes from NextBus, which provides real time transit data for a number of transit authorities.

It is possible to get the tag information from the NextBus website.

1. Visit https://www.nextbus.com/
2. Use the drop downs to select the transit system, route, direction, and stop
3. Extract the tags from the URL. It is constructed with the following pattern:

https://www.nextbus.com/#!/<agency>/<route>/<direction>/<stop>

If tags are incorrect, valid ones will be displayed in the logs as a convenience.
