fit-tool 0.9.13

A library for reading and writing Garmin FIT files.

A library for reading and writing Garmin FIT files.

Background

The Flexible and Interoperable Data Transfer (FIT) protocol is designed specifically for the storing and sharing of data that originates from sport, fitness and health devices. The FIT protocol defines a set of data storage templates (FIT messages) that can be used to store information such as user profiles, activity data, courses, and workouts. It is specifically designed to be compact, interoperable and extensible.

Library Usage

Reading a FIT file

The following code reads all the bytes from an activity FIT file and then decodes these bytes to create a FIT file object. We then convert the FIT data to a human-readable CSV file.

from fit_tool.fit_file import FitFile


def main():
    """ The following code reads all the bytes from a FIT formatted file and then decodes these bytes to
        create a FIT file object. We then convert the FIT data to a human-readable CSV file.
    """
    path = '../tests/data/sdk/Activity.fit'
    fit_file = FitFile.from_file(path)

    out_path = '../tests/data/sdk/Activity.csv'
    fit_file.to_csv(out_path)


if __name__ == "__main__":
