Automatic upload to strava #24

Closed tmiland closed 7 months ago

tmiland commented 10 years ago

Hi,

i was wondering if it was possible to integrate automatic uploading of the .tcx file to strava?

I once suggested this to an app called TcxCreator (jmelhus.com), and that works well by monitoring the output folder, the send the file by email to upload [AT] strava.com

Regards. :)

That's definitely something I want! :smile:

I haven't actually looked into Strava's API yet, but I imagine it will be possible. Once the basic GUI is done, I'll add support for auto-upload to a few places... Strava being the first on my list. :smiley:

Cheers.

That sounds great! :D

This feature will be awesome. I don't know if it's the right place but I have a question/issue about strava uploading : Each time I upload an activity, this one doesn't have the same total distance and time than the one in polar flow. For example yesterday I have 45.12km for 1:27:09 in Polar and 43.8km for 1:27:07 in Strava It's always truncated by a few kilometers but I can't see why

@ThomasG76, if you're using laps (auto or manual) then you're probably seeing issue #27, which will be fixed very soon.

Cheers.

pcolby commented 10 years ago

@ThomasG76, issue #27 was fixed, and 0.2.2 released today. Please see if that fixes the truncation problem.

Cheers.

ThomasG76 commented 10 years ago

Thanks.. I'll try it tonight after work. I had the same issue with 0.1 version. I'll keep you posted!

pcolby commented 10 years ago

Hmm... if it was the same with 0.1, it might be a difference in the way Strava vs Flow calculate the distance between GPS points (its not an exact science). Do the both start/end at the same point on their maps? ie does the Strava one look at all truncated on the screen?

Cheers.

ThomasG76 commented 10 years ago

They look exactly alike. The weirder I think is the time, I sometime have more than 2min gap. Can it be when the watch lost gps data? Polar calculate the void but Strava doesn't?

pcolby commented 10 years ago

Strava does remove standing time. For example, if you spent a total of 2 mins stopped at traffic lights, Strava will remove that from the total time. Not sure if Flow does the same or not though.

ThomasG76 commented 10 years ago

Could be that when I was waiting for the ferry. I haven't activate auto pause in flow... So the issue is just the distance I guess

Any update on if/when this will be implemented? :)
