gbfs-loader-java

Manage loading of GBFS feeds and updating them based on their ttl and last_updated fields.

The loader uses the generated GBFS Java model (http://github.com/entur/gbfs-java-model) to deserialize the files.

Usage

GbfsLoader directly

You may use the GbfsLoader class directly. You will need to create one instance per GBFS feed (system). The loader will use the discovery file to fetch all other available files.

    Gbfsloader loader = new GbfsLoader(
            "http://example.com/gbfs.json",
            Map.of(),
            "en"
    );

    // If the update fetched any files
    if (loader.update()) {

        // Get the data for a specific fiile
        GbfsStationStatus stationStatus = loader.getData(GbfsStationStatus.class);
    }

Use subscriptions

For convenience, a set of classes is provided to encapsulate the loader into a subscription for each feed, and with a delivery class that contains all files for each feed.

    GbfsSubscriptionManager subscriptions = new GbfsSubscriptionManager();

    // Subscribe to as many feeds as you want
    GbfsSubscriptionOptions options = new GbfsSubscriptionOptions();
    options.setDiscoveryURI(new URI("file:src/test/resources/gbfs/lillestrombysykkel/gbfs.json"));
    options.setLanguageCode("nb");

    String subscriber = loader.subscribe(options, delivery -> {
        // Consume an update on the subscription
        Assertions.assertEquals(6, delivery.getStationStatus().getData().getStations().size());
    });

    // Use your own scheduler to update the subscriptions
    subscriptions.update();

Authentication

The GbfsLoader constructor, as well as the GbfsSubscriptionOptions have an optional RequestAuthenticator parameter. Use this with GBFS feeds that require authentication.

The following implementations are provided in this library: Oauth2ClientCredentialsGrantRequestAuthenticator, BearerTokenRequestAuthenticator and HttpHeadersRequestAuthenticator. You can also implement the RequestAuthenticator interface to provide use custom authentication schemes.
