This Azure Function App provides several capabilities related to bike-sharing systems. It includes exploration functions for retrieving bike station information,such as finding the nearby operators (or gbfs systems) and finding the nearby bike stations for a specific operation with given gps coordinates. Designed with TypeScript, it leverages Azure Functions for serverless computing, ensuring scalability and efficiency.
- ReturnMyBike: Retrieves data on bike stations with available docks near specified locations.
- Operators: Retrieves data on nearby gbfs systems in a given location (city).
- Authentication: Generates CSRF tokens for secure interactions.
- Rate Limiting: Ensures fair usage by limiting request frequency based on IP addresses.
- Azure Functions: Serverless computing service.
- TypeScript: Used for writing the functions.
@azure/functions: Azure Functions runtime library.gbfs-system: NPM Library to simplify the interactions with General Bikeshare Feed Specification (GBFS) systems. More informations here.- The project is based on the MobilityData GBFS systems wich is implemented by several bikeshare operators worldwide. To get more informations about what GBFS is and how it works, check out the MobiltyData repository here.
