Departure monitor for ÖBB trains, Linz AG trams & buses, and all other Austrian public transport.

Uses the ÖBB HAFAS mgate (fahrplan.oebb.at) — the same backend as ÖBB's own journey planner. No API key or account required.

• Real-time departures with delay information
• Supports all Austrian operators: ÖBB, Linz AG, Wiener Linien, S-Bahn, regional buses
• Direction (via-stop) and line filtering per monitor
• Custom Lovelace card with color-coded delays
• Multiple departure sensors per stop (configurable 1–10)
• Works with automations (e.g. notify when train is delayed)

1. Download or clone this repository
2. Copy custom_components/austria_transit/ to your HA config/custom_components/ folder

2. Type a stop name (e.g. Linz Hbf, Simonystraße, Wien Westbahnhof)
3. Pick the correct stop from the list
4. Optionally set a via-stop (direction filter by intermediate stop), line filter (e.g. 3 or REX,WB), or terminus filter
5. Choose how many departures to track (1–10) and the refresh interval (default 300 s)

Add multiple entries for multiple stops or directions.

After copying www/austria-transit-card.js, register the resource in HA:

Settings → Dashboards → ⋮ → Resources → Add

Notify when your train is delayed by more than 5 minutes:

automation:
  - alias: "Train delay notification"
    trigger:
      - platform: template
        value_template: >
          {{ state_attr('sensor.linz_hbf_next_departure', 'delay_minutes') | int(0) > 5 }}
    action:
      - service: notify.mobile_app_your_phone
        data:
          title: "Train delayed"
          message: >
            {{ states('sensor.linz_hbf_next_departure') }} is delayed by
            {{ state_attr('sensor.linz_hbf_next_departure', 'delay_minutes') }} minutes.
