Get your data back from Strava
Project description
Strava-Backup
Get your data back from Strava.
Strava has an export options, but it will only give you the GPX files that Strava produces after analyzing your uploads.
Thankfully, there is a hidden option to download the original file for individual activities. However, this is only available on the website and not via the API.
This tool uses the API to get a list of all your events, then web scraping to log into the site using your username and password and download the original files for all your activities.
The "original file" will usually be either a *.fit
file (most Garmin devices), *.tcx
, *.gpx
,
or *.json
(Strava mobile application).
The tool will also output a *.meta.json
file for every activity that includes more information on
the activity (name, description, type, distance, equipment, etc).
Additionally, the tool will backup your shoes and bikes information, as well as any photos that have been added to activities.
Authentication
Accessing the Strava API requires a short-term access token. In order access your account on an
ongoing basis, strava-backup
requires a long-term "refresh token" and some other information with
which it can generate access tokens. For more information see the Strava API authentication
documentation.
A "refresh token" can be generated using a separate program such as strava-tokengen.
In order to back up your data, strava-backup
can use the following scopes (all optional):
profile:read_all
("View your complete Strava profile"): Will read and backup gear dataactivity:read
("View data about your activities"): Will read and backup activity dataactivity:read_all
("View data about your private activities"): Will read and backup private activity data
Setup
Use pip
to install this package:
pip install strava-backup
By default, strava-backup
will look for a config file called strava-backup.conf
in
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/
, falling back to ~/.config/
if it's unset. An alternate file can be specified
using the --config
option.
A sample config file has been included in this package. Copy it to the correct spot and fill in the required information.
Running
strava-backup
is an incremental backup. It tracks what has already been downloaded by looking at
the output directory and doesn't download it again.
To download all new data, simply run strava-backup
. See strava-backup --help
for other options.
To backup data on an ongoing basis, configure your system to call strava-backup
periodically (see
the /contrib folder for examples).
