Installation ############ | **FitTrackee** can be installed via a single `Python package from PyPI `__ or from sources after cloning the repository. | For a single-user instance, it's possible to disable registration. So all you need is Python and PostgreSQL. A `CLI `__ is available to manage user account. | The following steps describe an installation on Linux systems (tested ArchLinux-based OS and Ubuntu on CI). | On other operating systems, some issues can be encountered and adaptations may be necessary. .. note:: | Other installation guides are available thanks to contributors: | - `Installation on Uberspace Web hosting `__ | - `Installation on Debian 12 net install (guide in German) `__ Main dependencies ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This application is written in Python (API) and Typescript (client): - API: - Flask - `gpxpy `_ to parse gpx files - `staticmap `_ to generate a static map image from gpx coordinates - `dramatiq `_ for task queue - `Authlib `_ for OAuth 2.0 Authorization support - `Flask-Limiter `_ for API rate limits - `gunicorn `_ to serve application - Client: - Vue3/Vuex - `Leaflet `__ to display map - `Chart.js `__ to display charts with elevation and speed | Logo, some sports and weather icons are made by `Freepik `__ from `www.flaticon.com `__. | FitTrackee also uses icons from `Fork Awesome `__. Prerequisites ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - mandatory - Python 3.9+ - PostgreSQL 12+ - optional - Redis for task queue (if email sending is enabled and for data export requests) and API rate limits - SMTP provider (if email sending is enabled) - API key from a `weather data provider `__ - `Poetry `__ 1.2+ (for installation from sources only) - `Node `__ 18+ and `Yarn `__ (for development only) - Docker and Docker Compose (for development or evaluation purposes) .. note:: | If registration is enabled, it is recommended to set Redis and a SMTP provider for email sending and data export requests. Environment variables ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. warning:: | Since FitTrackee 0.4.0, ``Makefile.custom.config`` is replaced by ``.env`` The following environment variables are used by **FitTrackee** web application or the task processing library. They are not all mandatory depending on deployment method. .. envvar:: FLASK_APP | Name of the module to import at flask run. | ``FLASK_APP`` should contain ``$(PWD)/fittrackee/__main__.py`` with installation from sources, else ``fittrackee``. .. envvar:: HOST **FitTrackee** host. :default: ``127.0.0.1`` .. envvar:: PORT **FitTrackee** port. :default: 5000 .. envvar:: APP_SETTINGS **FitTrackee** configuration. :default: ``fittrackee.config.ProductionConfig`` .. envvar:: APP_SECRET_KEY **FitTrackee** secret key, must be initialized in production environment. .. warning:: Use a strong secret key.

Emails sent by FitTrackee are: - account confirmation instructions - password reset request - email change (to old and new email addresses) - password change - notification when a data export archive is ready to download (*new in 0.7.13*) .. versionchanged:: 0.6.5 For single-user instance, it is possible to disable email sending with an empty ``EMAIL_URL`` (in this case, no need to start dramatiq workers). A `CLI `__ is available to activate account, modify email and password and handle data export requests. .. versionchanged:: 0.7.24 Password can be encoded if it contains special characters. For instance with password ``passwordwith@and&and?``, the encoded password will be: ``passwordwith%40and%26and%3F``. Map tile server ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. versionadded:: 0.4.0 Default tile server is now **OpenStreetMap**'s standard tile layer (if environment variables are not initialized). The tile server can be changed by updating ``TILE_SERVER_URL`` and ``MAP_ATTRIBUTION`` variables (`list of tile servers `__). To keep using **ThunderForest Outdoors**, the configuration is: - ``TILE_SERVER_URL=https://{s}.tile.thunderforest.com/outdoors/{z}/{x}/{y}.png?apikey=XXXX`` where **XXXX** is **ThunderForest** API key - ``MAP_ATTRIBUTION=© Thunderforest, © OpenStreetMap contributors`` .. note:: | Check the terms of service of tile provider for map attribution. .. versionchanged:: 0.6.10 Since the tile server can be used for static map generation, some servers require a subdomain. For instance, to set OSM France tile server, the expected values are: - ``TILE_SERVER_URL=https://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.fr/osmfr/{z}/{x}/{y}.png`` - ``MAP_ATTRIBUTION='fond de carte par OpenStreetMap France, sous licence CC BY-SA'`` - ``STATICMAP_SUBDOMAINS=a,b,c`` The subdomain will be chosen randomly. .. versionadded:: 0.7.23 The default URL is updated: **OpenStreetMap**'s tile server no longer requires subdomains. API rate limits ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. versionadded:: 0.7.0 | API rate limits are managed by `Flask-Limiter `_, based on IP with fixed window strategy. | To enable rate limits, **Redis** must be available. .. note:: | If no Redis instance is available for rate limits, FitTrackee can still start. | All endpoints are subject to rate limits, except endpoints serving assets. | Limits can be modified by setting the environment variable ``API_RATE_LIMITS`` (see `Flask-Limiter documentation for notation `_). | Rate limits must be separated by a comma, for instance: .. code-block:: export API_RATE_LIMITS="200 per day, 50 per hour" **Flask-Limiter** provides a `Command Line Interface `_ for maintenance and diagnostic purposes. .. code-block:: bash $ flask limiter Usage: flask limiter [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]... Flask-Limiter maintenance & utility commands Options: --help Show this message and exit. Commands: clear Clear limits for a specific key config View the extension configuration limits Enumerate details about all routes with rate limits Weather data ~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. versionchanged:: 0.7.11 The following weather data providers are supported by **FitTrackee**: - `Visual Crossing `__ (**note**: historical data are provided on hourly period) To configure a weather provider, set the following environment variables: - ``WEATHER_API_KEY``: the key to the corresponding weather provider .. versionchanged:: 0.7.15 **DarkSky** support is discontinued, since the service shut down on March 31, 2023.
