How to Use the Python Scripts

git clone https://github.com/codereport/city-strides-hacking.git
Add a file named cookies.json with the following contents:

{
    "_citystrides_session": "...",
    "remember_user_token": "..."
}

Generate the above by doing the following:
- Go to www.citystrides.com (on Firefox)
- Ctrl + Shift + I to open the Web Developer Tools
- Choose a city on CityStrides, and click the 'Show Nodes" button (need to subscride for access to nodes)
- Copy the GET command using the Copy Value -> Copy as Curl
- Paste the curl command to https://curlconverter.com/python/
- Your cookies can be found in the generated command

Add a parameters.yaml. Example below.

city: bangkok
map_style: 'open-street-map'
max_distance: 25.0
steps: 9
hot_spots: true
hot_spot_n: 2
hot_spot_delta: 0.05
heat_map_max_length: 1
heat_map_exclude_csnodes: false
start_node: 1692740969

You can now run:
- ./download_node_csv.py cookie.json to scrape all the nodes to nodes.csv
- ./plot_nodes.py to view all of the nodes without a 1000 node limit

How to use the Rust route generator

Compile the Rust code: cargo build, this creates executable ./city_strides_route_generator
Download the file data/bangkok.json and data/bangkok_all.json by querying https://overpass-api.de with the queries of overpass_queries.md (assuming you set bangkok in parameters.yaml)
Call ././city_strides_route_generator
