TravelTime JAVA SDK
Travel Time Java SDK helps users find locations by journey time rather than using ‘as the crow flies’ distance. Time-based searching gives users more opportunities for personalisation and delivers a more relevant search.
This open-source library allows you to access TravelTime API endpoints. TravelTime SDK is published for Java 8.
Maven, Java package
All annotations are in Java package com.traveltime.sdk.
To use annotations, you need to use Maven dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.traveltime</groupId>
<artifactId>traveltime-sdk-java</artifactId>
<version>${traveltime-sdk-version}</version>
</dependency>
SDK usage
All requests return TravelTime response body. On invalid request functions will return API error response. Check indvidual function documentation or API documention for information on how to construct it.
Authentication
In order to authenticate with Travel Time API, you will have to supply the Credentials.
TravelTimeCredentials credentials = new TravelTimeCredentials("YOUR_APP_ID", "YOUR_APP_KEY");
TravelTimeSDK sdk = new TravelTimeSDK(credentials);
Given origin coordinates, find shapes of zones reachable within corresponding travel time. Find unions/intersections between different searches
Body attributes:
- departure_searches: Searches based on departure times. Leave departure location at no earlier than given time. You can define a maximum of 10 searches
- arrival_searches: Searches based on arrival times. Arrive at destination location at no later than given time. You can define a maximum of 10 searches
- unions: Define unions of shapes that are results of previously defined searches.
- intersections: Define intersections of shapes that are results of previously defined searches.

A fast version of time filter communicating using protocol buffers.
The request parameters are much more limited and only travel time is returned. In addition, the results are only approximately correct (95% of the results are guaranteed to be within 5% of the routes returned by regular time filter).
This inflexibility comes with a benefit of faster response times (Over 5x faster compared to regular time filter) and larger limits on the amount of destination points.
Body attributes:
- origin: Origin point;
- destination: Destination points. Cannot be more than 200,000;
- transportation: Transportation type;
- travelTime: Time limit;
- country: Return the results that are within the specified country;
- requestType: MANY_TO_ONE(single arrival location and multiple departure locations) or ONE_TO_MANY (single departure location and multiple arrival locations).

The responses are in the form of a list where each position denotes either a travel time (in seconds) of a journey, or if negative that the journey from the origin to the destination point is impossible.
Returns routing information between source and destinations.
Body attributes:

Passing custom parameters
In order to pass custom parameters, you will have to create TravelTimeSDK builder.
TravelTimeCredentials credentials = new TravelTimeCredentials("APP_ID", "API_KEY");
URI baseUri = URI.create("BASE_URI");
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient
.Builder()
.callTimeout(120, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
.build();
TravelTimeSDK sdk = TravelTimeSDK
.builder()
.baseUri(baseUri)
.credentials(credentials)
.client(client)
.build();
Development
We use Maven as a build automation tool in this project.
To run unit tests you can execute:
mvn test
Please note that you will need to export some valid credentials as environment variables in your shell to make tests work:
export APP_ID="..."
export API_KEY="..."
export PROTO_USERNAME="..."
export PROTO_PASSWORD="..."
