Where to put gtfs and osm data for the open trip planner?

Question

I am trying to use open trip planner and I’m using the src/client/index.html to view the gtfs and osm data. What file do I edit to point the data to use for otp? Where do I put the gtfs and osm data so I can view it through the index.html provided in OTP 2?

Thanks.

It doesn't matter where you put the GTFS and OSM data as long as they are together in the same folder.

e.g. create an otp folder inside your user folder and copy across the GTFS and OSM data: home/username/otp

Then fire up your OTP instance, which will compile the GTFS/OSM data into a graph object and serve on localhost:8080.

java -Xmx2G -jar otp-2.0.0-rc1-shaded.jar --build --serve /home/username/otp

There are more options available on the basic tutorial of the official documentation: http://docs.opentripplanner.org/en/latest/Basic-Tutorial/
