TransXchange to GTFS

Description

TransXchange to GTFS

Usage

transxchange2gtfs(
  path_in,
  silent = TRUE,
  ncores = 1,
  cal = get_bank_holidays(),
  naptan = get_naptan(),
  scotland = "auto",
  try_mode = TRUE,
  force_merge = FALSE
)

Arguments

`path_in`	Path to zipped transxchange files
`silent`	Logical, should progress be shown
`ncores`	Numeric, When parallel processing how many cores to use
`cal`	Calendar object from get_bank_holidays()
`naptan`	Naptan stop locations from get_naptan()
`scotland`	character, should Scottish bank holidays be used? Can be "auto" (default), "yes", "no". If "auto" and path_in ends with "S.zip" Scottish bank holidays will be used, otherwise England and Wales bank holidays are used.
`try_mode`	Logical, if TRUE import and conversion are wrapped in try calls thus a failure on a single file will not cause the whole process to fail. Warning this could result in a GTFS file with missing routes.
`force_merge`	Logical, passed to gtfs_merge(force), default FALSE

Details

Convert transxchange files to GTFS

This is a meta function which aids TransXchange to GTFS conversion. It simple runs transxchange_import(), transxchange_export(), gtfs_merge(), gtfs_write()

Progress Bars

To minimise overall processing when using multiple cores the function works from largest to smallest file.This can mean the progress bar sits a 0 quite some time, before starting to move rapidly.
