Portugal commute

I recently moved to Lisbon and was having a hard time finding apartments in cities that were in a radius from my job by train/subway. Since I couldn't find any feature in Google Maps that allowed me to do exactly what I wanted (if someone knows about a feature that renders this program useless, please, tell me!), I coded this. At first I did it in Python, but I got some issues running Blacksheep in Vercel, so I changed it to TypeScript. I welcome any tips, suggestions, PRs or issues 😊.

Usage

Simply call https://portugal-commute.vercel.app/api/rail with the location (try an address. Google Maps will search it for you!), the maxMinutes you're willing to accept in your commute and your Google Maps apiKey (with permissions to use the Routes API) as query params and you gonna get a response with all the concelhos that are in that travel distance radius. The program assumes a search with the desired arrival time as 09:00h of the next day, just to be as accurate as possible.

TODO

• Try to manually calculate the times based on train/subway stations. I'm not trusting Google Maps to provide accurate information regarding subway and train integrations, since I had some misinformation in manual searches.
• Allow a custom arrivalTime as query params.
• Use vercel's KV/DB/Blob store to cache the concelhos.
