Problems with stomp(.py) (newbie)

[Peter Telford]

Hi,

I've had my account registered, and I've subscribed to a couple of feeds:

But when using stomp (I'm on Ubuntu with the stomp.py module) I get told I'm not authorised:

stomp -H datafeeds.networkrail.co.uk -P 61618 -U foo -W bar -L "/topic/SCHEDULE/CIF_HY_TOC_FULL_DAILY"

I'm really not sure about this -L option, unfortunately this is my first time with stomp and with the rail data.

Any pointers? Thanks.

Peter.

There are two types of data available:

* Real-time data feeds
* Semi-static data

You need a Stomp client to be able to pull in the real-time data,
however the schedule data is semi-static.

There's a page on the Wiki -
http://nrodwiki.rockshore.net/index.php/SCHEDULE - which tells you what
you need to do in order to download the data. Have a look, and feel
free to come back if it doesn't answer all your questions.

Cheers,


Peter

The SCHEDULE feed is a flat file updated daily, rather than a feed provided through STOMP messages.

You can download it using the example curl command line here:

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks for the help so far, but still having issues even with (c)url (after logging in successfully):

Is there any way I can confirm my subscriptions (the portal resolutely shows me the two I posted earlier).

Thanks,

Peter.

Firstly, it should be &day=toc-update-sat not &sat=

Also, although it wont prevent a download, the latest update is labelled the day before, so today, Saturday, one would normally be fetching toc-update-fri

Also, according to the Wiki (I use the ALL file so I don't know for sure) it should be CIF_HY_TOC_UPDATE_DAILY

Hi,

Thanks for all the help, I finally cracked it with the help here - I was seeing double and getting the URL wrong, correct format was:-

https://datafeeds.networkrail.co.uk/ntrod/CifFileAuthenticate?type=CIF_HY_UPDATE_DAILY&day=toc-update-fri

Thanks all for the very valuable help!

Peter.
