update schedule

[aavin]

Hi,
Thanks for the app, I use it daily!
I think there might be an update to a train schedule, is there anyway I can make a pull request? I can't seem to find the data associated with the app!

Hey absolutely. I would love a pull request.

Here is the repo for the metrolink data. The GTFS data is loaded into a sqlite database. The sqlite database then generates json files that are stored directly within the app. There are some instructions on the README, but I'm more than happy to help. I'll release a new version of the app with the updated data.

Ok great.
I made a PR here - mpmenne/metrolink-stl-data#1
I downloaded the GTFS data from here - ftp://www.metrostlouis.org/transit/google_transit.zip
Would you like me to generate the JSON from the sqlite db? I'm not sure I know exactly how to do this but I can try and figure this out with some help:)

Awesome! Thanks for doing that. I just pulled your changes in. I'll recompile the data tonight and rerelease the app this weekend. Hopefully it makes it through iOS validation pretty quickly.

We should have the changes live in the next week or so. If you really want the changes sooner you can compile the app locally and deploy it. I can provide some more detailed instructions tonight.

Cheers

Great! Any instructions would be great especially for someone else wants to do this in the future, thanks for your time.

Hey still working on it. Should have it scripted out real nice with instructions in the next day or so. Thanks for being patient
