django-fitbit-healthkit 0.6.1

A Django app to access Fitbit Web APIs.

django-fitbit-healthkit

django-fitbit-healthkit is a Django Fitbit App with HealthKit-friendly API. The goal is to provide a wrapper over fitbit authentication, token management, and web APIs that is similar to other high-level healthkit wrappers like react-native-healthkit. The HealthKit API from Apple is here for reference.

A sample app is included in the sample directory to showcase how to use the fitbit app.

Detailed documentation is in the "docs" directory.

Quick start

1. Add "fitbit" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...,
    "django_fitbit_healthkit",
]

2. Include the fitbit URLconf in your project urls.py like this:

path("fitbit/", include("django_fitbit_healthkit.urls")),

3. Run python manage.py migrate to create the models.

4. Visit the /fitbit/login URL to sign in with Fitbit.

Running the sample app

Make sure to set environment variables for

FITBIT_CLIENT_ID=xxx
FITBIT_CLIENT_SECRET=xxx

which will be picked up by sample/settings.py. In your fitbit app settings, add http://localhost:8000/fitbit/success to the allowed callback URLs.

Set up dev environment. There is nothing complicated here, so vanilla venv on any platform is probably sufficient (no nix/devbox, dev container type setup is necessary).

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install Django

Apply DB migrations with python3 manage.py migrate. You can run the app quite simply:

python3 manage.py runserver

This will allow you to register an account, sign in with fitbit, and view some of your data.

Release workflow

Develop on a branch. When it's ready, merge to main.

If this is not a release (no bumped version in setup.cfg), then TestPyPI may fail with a duplicate sdist upload (it has before).

If it's a new version, then the setup.cfg should have been bumped on the branch. When it's merged, we expect TestPyPI to succeed. Then the tag can be pushed to GH, which will trigger real PyPI release.
