Merge GTFS files

Description

Combines many GTFS objects into a single one.

Usage

merge_gtfs(..., files = NULL, warnings, prefix = FALSE)

Arguments

...

GTFS objects to be merged. Each argument can either be a GTFS or a list of GTFS objects.

files

A character vector listing the GTFS tables to be merged. If NULL (the default), all tables are merged.

warnings

Whether to display warning messages (defaults to TRUE).

prefix

Either a logical or a character vector (defaults to FALSE). Whether to add a prefix to the value of id fields that identify from which GTFS object the value comes from. If TRUE, the prefixes will range from "1" to n, where n is the number of objects passed to the function. If a character vector, its elements will be used to identify the GTFS objects, and the length of the vector must equal the total amount of objects passed in ... (the first element will identify the first GTFS, the second element the second GTFS, and so on).

Value

A GTFS object in which each table is a combination (by row) of the tables from the specified GTFS objects.

Examples

spo_path <- system.file("extdata/spo_gtfs.zip", package = "gtfstools")
ggl_path <- system.file("extdata/ggl_gtfs.zip", package = "gtfstools")

spo_gtfs <- read_gtfs(spo_path)
names(spo_gtfs)

ggl_gtfs <- read_gtfs(ggl_path)
names(ggl_gtfs)

merged_gtfs <- merge_gtfs(spo_gtfs, ggl_gtfs)
names(merged_gtfs)

# use a list() to programatically merge many GTFS objects
gtfs_list <- list(spo_gtfs, ggl_gtfs)
merged_gtfs <- merge_gtfs(gtfs_list)

# 'prefix' helps disambiguating from which GTFS each id comes from.
# if TRUE, the ids range from 1:n, where n is the number of gtfs
merged_gtfs <- merge_gtfs(gtfs_list, prefix = TRUE)
merged_gtfs$agency

# if a character vector, its elements will be used to identify the each gtfs
merged_gtfs <- merge_gtfs(gtfs_list, prefix = c("spo", "ggl"))
merged_gtfs$agency
