The other day, I needed to rapidly visualize bus routes from an Open Trip Planner instance. Also I wanted to use transitive.js

For that you can use a tool developped by Conveyal called transitive-importer (available on github).

After cloning the project, you will need to install component

npm install -g component

Then install the dependencies and build the project:

component install
component-build

You can then launch a simple server to get access to the interface:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

Form the interface on 127.0.0.1:8000, click on 'Set OTP Endpoint' and enter your OTP server url pointing to the index API:

http://xx.xx.xx.xx/otp/routers/default/index

The list of routes available should load.

Select the routes you want to display anc click 'Update'. Voila!
