$("#realtime").vasttrafik();

.vasttrafik() takes two arguments the first one being settings as a JavaScript object and the second being a callback function.

The callback returns wheather the AJAX call succeeded or not and a reason together with an HTTP status code.

$("#realtime").vasttrafik({
    url: "https:/example.com/api/departures/?id=",
    stopId: "9021014001960000",
    method: "GET",
    crossDomain: true,
    cache: false,
    async: true,
    departureNow: "now",
    departureNone: "No departures",
    lineColors: {
        55: {
            bgColor: "#EAF5CC",
            fgColor: "#3AB73D"
        }
    }
}, function(response) { /*Callback*/ });

• ITG-Infoskarm

• jquery-vasttrafik does not run on any interval. If you would want the data to reload you could use setInterval. Just keep in mind that it is not necessary to update more than once per minute altought the JSON response is cached for 30 seconds.
• The API for this plugin is not hosted anywhere, but the OpenAPI Specification for the required response model is available here.
  • There is version of this API created that is no longer hosted. Create a new issue if you would like access to the source code to host it yourself. The only prerequisite is that you have a server with PHP version >= 5.6 installed.
