renfe-tracker is a self-hosted tool I built to track Renfe train prices (media and larga distancia) and get notified when they change.
Why
Renfe prices fluctuate a lot, and checking manually every day is tedious. I wanted something that would watch a trip for me and alert me when the price dropped — or before it went up.
What it does
- Search trains between stations for a given date, with estimated price ranges based on historical data
- Detect possible trains — trains expected to appear on your date based on recurring patterns, even before Renfe publishes them
- Track trips and monitor their prices automatically in the background
- Alert you when the price changes via email, Telegram, Home Assistant, or browser notifications
- View price history with a timeline of every price change for a tracked trip

Getting started
It runs as a single Docker container:
curl -o docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JavierMonton/renfe-tracker/main/docker-compose.example.yml
docker compose up -d
Then open http://localhost:8000.
