Sukkur Red Bus

Bus identity

What must be ready?

1. Complete Setup with your Supabase project URL and anon/publishable key.

2. Create the bus_locations table and enable Realtime for that table using the instructions on the Setup tab.

3. Tap Start GPS sharing. Your computer dashboard can then read the same bus ID.

Supabase project

Database setup (run once)

In Supabase, open SQL Editor → New query, paste this SQL and run it. This simple test policy allows the public key to read and write locations, so use it only in a private prototype with no sensitive data. Tighten access before a public launch.

create table if not exists public.bus_locations (
  bus_id text primary key,
  lat double precision not null,
  lng double precision not null,
  accuracy double precision,
  speed double precision,
  heading double precision,
  updated_at timestamptz not null default now()
);

alter table public.bus_locations enable row level security;

create policy "prototype read locations"
on public.bus_locations for select
to anon, authenticated using (true);

create policy "prototype send locations"
on public.bus_locations for insert
to anon, authenticated with check (true);

create policy "prototype update locations"
on public.bus_locations for update
to anon, authenticated using (true) with check (true);

alter publication supabase_realtime
add table public.bus_locations;

If the final line says the table is already in the publication, that part is already enabled. The open policies are for local testing only; never use them for a production system.

How the test works

• Bus phone: open this app → Share GPS → Start GPS sharing.

• Your computer: open this same app → Live dashboard → enter the same bus ID.

• Both devices need internet. Keep the bus phone's screen awake during this first test.

Current capabilities

• Mobile-first interface and route research leads.

• Real phone GPS permission and coordinate capture.

• Supabase connection, GPS sending and remote live updates after setup.

• Map marker follows the last received location.

Not implemented yet

• Official bus GPS feed or authority integration.

• Verified route geometry, accurate arrival estimates, user accounts, production-grade access control or app-store release.

Privacy & safety

Only track a device with its owner's informed consent. Avoid collecting personal information. The prototype SQL uses open access for testing; secure the database policies before sharing the app publicly.
