More data-based services / APIs

[RuffaloLavoisier]

I would like to provide information to Watchface.

TO-DO:

• [x] Battery Notification (Arc or anything)
• [ ] Provides sunrise
• [ ] Read e-mail
• [ ] #299
• [x] Extend fitness app : https://github.com/Open-Smartwatch/open-smartwatch-os/pull/223
  • [x] Total distance
  • [x] Total calories consumed
  • [x] Total steps
• [ ] Draw tracking map (With GPS)
• [ ] Notification and device-info

  Bluetooth Applications to be developed in the future

  I think we can provide this kind of information at the current step counter.

I think it is possible to extract sufficiently valuable data by storing user information(height, weight) that needs to be received by the Open-smartwatch in config.h or OSW config.

It's time to restart this part.

I’m working on a weather app for OSW, right now I’m able to perform a get to Open Weather map. The connection requires https and also an API key, anyway, there are also other services with less requirements. The data that I get with the API call are stored in the NVS using my own encoding. The encoder is capable to compress 24 updates ( weather code, temperature, humidity, pressure) in 76B. In particular, the encoding of humidity and temperature is lossy, pressure and weather code are encoded in a lossless way instead. The losses introduced are quite negligible for this kind of application.
The main idea is to update the weather on a daily base, doing it more frequently does not make a lot of sense for me. How do you think to get weather data? Do you think that using a free service (with mandatory subscription ) like openweathermap is a good idea?

@Lorenzosciacca I think this is a GREAT idea and - from the looks - beautiful implementation! I think using openweather is OK, as e.g. https://github.com/sqfmi/Watchy/blob/5690db077f5c99c7823cb652009bc260605b231f/examples/WatchFaces/7_SEG/settings.h#L6 is also doing that. I'm very impressed!

[RuffaloLavoisier]

@Lorenzosciacca If you want, could you implement this weather part?

[Lorenzosciacca]

@simonmicro thank you! @RuffaloLavoisier , of course, it will be a pleasure for me.

[RuffaloLavoisier]

@Lorenzosciacca Thank you in advance ☺

flash update: this is how the app looks like now. While i was playing with the smartwatch the screen died, it’s the usual problem but this slowed down everything. In the next future, when I will be able to do a couple of tests, I will post everything.

Looks great, love the UI!

[Lorenzosciacca]

The app is available here. Note: there is a bug, when i try to perform the GET to openweather i can't enable the wifi directly from the app, instead it's necessary to enable the WiFi from the webserver/time-update app. I don't know the exact reason, it also may be related to the usual WiFi problems.

@Lorenzosciacca Could you open the pull request?

[Lorenzosciacca]

Yes, i can, now i'm not at home, tomorrow morning i can do It for sure. On develop right?

[RuffaloLavoisier]

Yes, correct
