Version 0.8.2: Strava Upload and Device Shutdown

[laberning]

Open Rowing Monitor does not have proper releases yet, but I'll try to announce new features in this category. So basically if you see a new message in the news category it might be worth to update your installation of Open Rowing Monitor by running the updateopenrowingmonitor command 😄

I just added some new features to the main branch of Open Rowing Monitor:

Strava Upload:

By configuring the two options below in your config.js, you will now be able to directly upload your training sessions to Strava with the click of a button. Note that the first upload to Strava will require you to do an oAuth authorization, so the first upload should be done on a device that has a keyboard.

  // Configures the connection to Strava (to directly upload workouts to Strava)
  // Note that these values are not your Strava credentials
  // Instead you have to create a Strava API Application as described here:
  // https://developers.strava.com/docs/getting-started/#account and use the corresponding values
  // When creating your Strava API application, set the "Authorization Callback Domain" to the IP address
  // of your Raspberry Pi
  // WARNING: if you enabled the network share via the installer script, then this config file will be
  // exposed via network share on your local network. You might consider disabling (or password protect)
  // the Configuration share in smb.conf
  // The "Client ID" of your Strava API Application
  stravaClientId: '',

  // The "Client Secret" of your Strava API Application
  stravaClientSecret: ''

Device Shutdown:

If you are running the user interface directly on the Raspberry Pi, then you will now have a button to shutdown the device after finishing your workout.

Hi Lars,

Just wondered whether this feature is functioning? I am running 0.8.2 and have added the following to my config file. But I don't get the message in your screen grab, or what looks like the cloud button in the bottom right hand corner.

I don't really know how to stop and start a workout TBH. I just hit the reset button at the end of a workout currently?

stravaClientId: 'XXXXX ',
stravaClientSecret: 'YYYYYYY'

Is there anything else that is required? You mention setting the "Authorization Callback Domain" to the IP address of your Raspberry Pi"

Most people would have their Pi on a private IP address in their LAN, does this require a public IP?

Many thanks for the great project btw, it has been really interesting - especially the physics behind it!

Regards
Ian

Correct syntax is with double quotes, rather than single.

stravaClientId: "StravaClientID",
stravaClientSecret: "client_secret_string_from_the_Strava_API",

Interesting, I'll ask @laberning if this is a bug.

I did eventually get it working Jaap, unfortunately I don't know what the problem was or what fixed it.
One thing I did was to Imove it out of the rower settings section in the config.js, the other was to use double quotes rather than single quotes as it is a string.

I think probably likely it was a syntax error.
