BKK Stop Information custom component for Home Assistant

Providing also a custom state card for legacyUI.

This custom component and custom card shows Budapest Public Transportation (BKK) line information departing in the near future from a configurable stop.

Installation

The easiest way to install it is through HACS (Home Assistant Community Store), search for BKK Stop Information in the Integrations.

If you are not using HACS, download the files from custom_components/bkk_stop into your $homeassistant_config_dir/custom_components/bkk_stop.

Once downloaded and configured as per below information you'll need to restart HomeAssistant to have the custom component and the sensors of bkk_stop platform taken into consideration.

Configuration:

Define sensors with the following configuration parameters:
