how to specify unzipped GTFS feeds? #3
Comments
A belated thanks for this question. DMFR does not absolutely require that URLs be ZIP files. You may do so if you wish. However, the transitland-lib tooling can currently only handle URLs that reference ZIP files. Since transitland-lib is used to power the Transitland Atlas repo of DMFR files, this means that Transitland Atlas can only have URLs that point to ZIPs. (Related to transitland/transitland-atlas#357) |
What do you think about expanding transitland-lib to accept a directory of GTFS files? As mentioned above, one could support the DataPackage standard, and/or HTTP Link headers, and/or other formats for a collection of links to other files. |
