goldencheetah-proxy 0.1.0

CORS proxy for the GoldenCheetah API — browse your data in the browser

GoldenCheetah Proxy

A small tool that lets web apps access your GoldenCheetah data. It runs on your computer and keeps your data private — nothing is sent to the cloud.

Installation

You don't need Python or any other programming tools installed. The commands below handle everything automatically.

macOS and Linux

Open Terminal (on Mac: press Cmd+Space, type "Terminal", press Enter) and paste this command:

curl -LsSf uvx.sh/goldencheetah-proxy/install.sh | sh

Windows

Open PowerShell (press the Windows key, type "PowerShell", press Enter) and paste this command:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://uvx.sh/goldencheetah-proxy/install.ps1 | iex"

How to use

Step 1: Enable the GoldenCheetah API

Open GoldenCheetah, then go to:

Settings → General → Integration → Enable API Web Services

This tells GoldenCheetah to make your data available locally.

Step 2: Run the proxy

Open a terminal (or PowerShell on Windows) and run:

goldencheetah-proxy

You should see:

GoldenCheetah Proxy v0.1.0
Proxy running on http://localhost:12022
Forwarding to GoldenCheetah at http://localhost:12021
Waiting for connections...

Leave this running while you use the web viewer.

Step 3: Open the web viewer

Open goldencheetah-web-viewer/index.html in your browser and click Connect.

The proxy will ask you to approve the website — click Allow (or type y in the terminal on Linux).

What does the proxy do?

GoldenCheetah has a built-in API that runs on your computer. Browsers can't talk to it directly due to security restrictions (CORS). The proxy sits in between and adds the right headers so your browser can access the data.

Browser  →  Proxy (localhost:12022)  →  GoldenCheetah API (localhost:12021)

Your data never leaves your computer.

Options

goldencheetah-proxy --port 9999       # Use a different port (default: 12022)
goldencheetah-proxy --gc-port 5555    # GoldenCheetah API port (default: 12021)
