stone. Instead, it is an open specification developed and maintained by the community of transit agencies, developers, and other stakeholders who use GTFS Realtime. It is expected that this community of producers and consumers of GTFS Realtime data will have proposals for extending the spec to enable new capabilities. To help manage that process, the following procedures and guidelines have been established.</p> <div class="admonition note"> <p>The official specification, reference and documentation are written in English. If a translation to a different language differs from the English original, the latter takes precedence.

We chose Protocol Buffers as the basis for the specification because they offer a good trade-off in terms of ease of use for developers and in terms of efficiency for transmitting data. Unlike GTFS, we do not imagine many agencies will be editing GTFS Realtime feeds by hand. The choice of Protocol Buffers reflects the conclusion that most GTFS Realtime feeds will be produced and consumed programmatically.</p> <p><strong>The spec is about passenger information.</strong></p> <p>Like GTFS before it, GTFS Realtime is primarily concerned with passenger information. That is, the spec should include information that can help power tools for riders, first and foremost. There is potentially a large amount of operations-oriented information that transit agencies might want to transmit internally between systems. GTFS Realtime is not intended for that purpose and there are potentially other operations-oriented data-standards that may be more appropriate.</p> <p><strong>Changes to the spec should be backwards-compatible.</strong></p> <p>When adding features to the specification, we want to avoid making changes that will make existing feeds invalid. We don't want to create more work for existing feed publishers until they want to add capabilities to their feeds. Also, whenever possible, we want existing parsers to be able to continue to read the older parts of newer feeds. The conventions for extending Protocol Buffers will enforce backwards-compatibility to a certain extent. However, we wish to avoid semantic changes to existing fields that might break backwards-compatibility as well.</p> <p><strong>Speculative features are discouraged.</strong></p> <p>Every new feature adds complexity to creating and reading of feeds. Therefore, we want to take care to only add features that we know to be useful. Ideally, any proposal will have been tested by generating data for a real transit system that uses the new feature and writing software to read and display it.</p> <h2 id="extensions">Extensions<a class="headerlink" href="#extensions" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2> <p>To allow producers to add custom information to a GTFS Realtime feed, we will take advantage of the <a href="https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto#extensions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Extensions feature of Protocol Buffers</a>. Extensions allow us to define a namespace in a Protocol Buffer message where third-party developers can define additional fields without the need to modify the original proto definition.</p> <p>When possible we should avoid extensions and add fields useful to many agencies to the main specification to avoid fragmentation and extra work for consumers to support various extensions to the spec. Before requesting an extension id, producers should propose adding the field to the specification (see <a href="#adding-new-fields-to-gtfs-realtime">Adding new fields to GTFS Realtime</a>)</p> <p>The extension IDs within the range 9000-9999 are reserved for private use by GTFS-rt producers. These IDs should only be used to convey information internally to your organization. Extensions in this range <strong>must not</strong> be used in public feeds. </p> <p>To create a new extension, we will assign a producer the next available extension id, picked incrementally from a list of numbers starting at 1000 and going up and documented in the Extension Registry section found below.</p> <p>These assigned extension ids corresponds to the tag ids available in the "extension" namespace for each GTFS Realtime message definition. Now that the developer has an assigned extension id, they will use that id when extending any and all GTFS Realtime messages. Even if the developer only plans to extend a single message, the assigned extension id will be reserved for ALL messages.</p> <p>For a developer extending the spec, instead of adding a single field like a "string" or "int32" with their extension id, the preferred model is to define a new message like "MyTripDescriptorExtension", extend the underlying GTFS Realtime message with your new message, and then put all your new fields in there. This has the nice property that you can manage fields within your extension message however you want, without needing to reserve a new extension id from the master list.</p> <div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>message MyTripDescriptorExtension { optional string some_string = 1; optional bool some_bool = 2; ... } extend transit_realtime.TripDescriptor { optional MyTripDescriptorExtension my_trip_descriptor = YOUR_EXTENSION_ID; } </code></pre></div> <p>When creating extensions, developers should follow the <a href="https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Protocol Buffers Language Guide</a>. A common mistake is re-using an extension field number. In the <a href="https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto#assigning-field-numbers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assigning Field Numbers section</a>, the Language Guide says:</p> <blockquote> <p>Each field in the message definition has a unique number. These numbers are used to identify your fields in the message binary format, and should not be changed once your message type is in use.</p> </blockquote> <p>For example, in the first example <code>some_string</code> was assigned field number <code>1</code>. When the developer no longer wishes to use <code>some_string</code>, or when <code>some_string</code> has been adopted in the official GTFS Realtime spec and there is no need for the extension, the developer cannot re-use field number <code>1</code> for a new field. Instead, the developer should deprecate the field and use a new number for the new field: <div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>message MyTripDescriptorExtension { optional string some_string = 1 [deprecated=true]; optional bool some_bool = 2; optional string some_new_string = 3; ... } </code></pre></div></p> <h2 id="extension-registry">Extension Registry<a class="headerlink"
