A python client library to interact with Polar Flow
==== Flow
A python client for Polar Flow_.
NOTE: This project was created before Polar opened their Polar AccessLink API_. You are much better off using that.
An official python example can be found at https://github.com/polarofficial/accesslink-example-python
Features
- Fetch a list of activities within given date range
- Fetch the TCX file for any training session
- Fetch raw training session data (TODO)
- Fetch activity data (steps, goal, etc...) (TODO)
Install
This package isn't on PyPi yet, so the easiest way to install is directly from the git repository::
$ pip install git+git://github.com/campbellr/flow-client.git
Usage
Usage is fairly simple. Simply instantiate a FlowClient, login with your
Polar Flow credentials and fetch activities with the activities method:
.. code-block:: python
>>> from flow import FlowClient
>>>
>>> client = FlowClient()
>>> client.login('[email protected]', 'password')
>>> # no arguments will fetch all activities in the last 30 days
>>> activity = client.activities()[0]
>>> print activity
Activity(63464689)
>>> print activity.type
EXERCISE
>>> print activity.datetime
2015-03-10T19:38:18.000Z
>>> print activity.distance
4964.10009766
The entire list of attributes of an Activity can be viewed using dir.
Finally, you can download the tcx file for a given activity with the
Activty.tcx method:
.. code-block:: python
>>> print activity.tcx()
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><TrainingCenterDatabase xmlns="http://www.garmin.com/xmlschemas/TrainingCenterDatabase/v2"><Activities><Activity Sport="Running"><Id>2015-03-10T19:38:18.000Z</Id><Lap StartTime="2015-03-10T19:38:18.000Z"><TotalTimeSeconds>426.0</TotalTimeSeconds><DistanceMeters>1000.0</DistanceMeters>
