stravaweblib 0.0.8

Extends the Strava v3 API using web scraping

stravaweblib

Provides all the functionality of the stravalib package and extends it using web scraping.

Authentication

In order to log into the website, the WebClient class either needs an email and password, or the JWT of an existing session. Strava stores this JWT in the strava_remember_token cookie.

After the client has logged in, a JWT for the current session can be accessed via the WebClient's jwt property. Storing this JWT (and the access_token from stravalib) allows for resuming the session without having to log in again. This can avoid rate limits and lockouts.

Example:

from stravaweblib import WebClient

# Log in (requires API token and email/password for the site)
client = WebClient(access_token=OAUTH_TOKEN, email=EMAIL, password=PASSWORD)

# Store the current session's information
jwt = client.jwt
access_token = client.access_token

# Create a new client that continues to use the previous web session
client = WebClient(access_token=access_token, jwt=jwt)

Extra functionality

Export activities

Download activity files as GPX, TCX, or the original format they were uploaded in.

from stravaweblib import WebClient, DataFormat

# Log in (requires API token and email/password for the site)
client = WebClient(access_token=OAUTH_TOKEN, email=EMAIL, password=PASSWORD)

# Get the first activity id (uses the normal stravalib API)
activities = client.get_activities()
activity_id = activities.next().id

# Get the filename and data stream for the activity data
data = client.get_activity_data(activity_id, fmt=DataFormat.ORIGINAL)

# Save the activity data to disk using the server-provided filename
with open(data.filename, 'wb') as f:
    f.writelines(data.content)

Delete activities

Delete activities from the site. Note that this was previously possible via the API, but the endpoint has been removed as of 2017-01-17.

from stravaweblib import WebClient

# Log in (requires API token and email/password for the site)
client = WebClient(access_token=OAUTH_TOKEN, email=EMAIL, password=PASSWORD)

# Get the first activity id (uses the normal stravalib API)
activities = client.get_activities()
activity_id = activities.next().id

# Delete the activity
client.delete_activity(activity_id)

Get bike components

Retrieve all components added to bikes. Can optionally only show components active at a certain date.

from stravaweblib import WebClient
from datetime import datetime

# Log in (requires API token and email/password for the site)
client = WebClient(access_token=OAUTH_TOKEN, email=EMAIL, password=PASSWORD)

# Get a list of bikes the current user owns
athlete = client.get_athlete()
bikes = athlete.bikes

# Get the id of the first bike
bike_id = bikes.next().id

# Get all components of the first bike (past and present)
client.get_bike_components(bike_id)

# Get the current components on the first bike
client.get_bike_components(bike_id, on_date=datetime.now())

Export routes

Download route files as GPX or TCX.

from stravaweblib import WebClient, DataFormat

# Log in (requires API token and email/password for the site)
client = WebClient(access_token=OAUTH_TOKEN, email=EMAIL, password=PASSWORD)

# Get the first route id (uses the normal stravalib API)
routes = client.get_routes()
route_id = routes.next().id

# Get the filename and data stream for the activity data
data = client.get_route_data(route_id, fmt=DataFormat.GPX)

# Save the activity data to disk using the server-provided filename
with open(data.filename, 'wb') as f:
    f.writelines(data.content)
